Esiteri 2 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

2 ¹Mu nyuma, igihe ishavu ry’umwami Kiseruse ryari rihwamye, yaribuka Vashiti, ivyo yari yakoze, be n’ivyari vyasezeranywe kuri we. ²Abasuku b’umwami baravuga bati: “Umwami arondererwe abigeme beza kandi batari baramenyana n’abagabo. ³Umwami nagene abakuru mu ntara zose z’ubwami bwiwe, bakoranirize abigeme beza bose batari baramenyana n’abagabo mu gihome ca Susa, mu rugo rw’abagore ruri mu maboko ya Hegayi, inkone y’umwami irinda abagore, maze babahe ibibayarira ubwiza. ⁴Umwigeme azohimbara umwami niwe azoganza mu kibanza ca Vashiti.” Ivyo vyarahimbaye umwami, maze abigenza uko.

⁵Mu gihome ca Susa harimwo Umuyuda yitwa Morderekayi, mwene Yayiri, mwene Shimeyi, mwene Kishi, w’umuryango wa Benyamini, ⁶uwari yaranyagishijwe i Yeruzalemu hamwe n’abandi banyagwa bajanywe na Yekoniya umwami w’u Buyuda, uwo Nebukadineza umwami w’i Babiloni yari yaranyaze. ⁷Yarerera Hadasa—ni we Esiteri—umukobwa wa data wabo wiwe, atari afise se canke nyina. Uwo mwigeme yari mwiza ku mubiri kandi aboneka neza; igihe se na nyina bapfa, Morderekayi aramwigira umukobwa wiwe bwite.

⁸Igihe itegeko n’ibwirizwa vy’umwami vyumvikana, abigeme benshi bakoranirizwa mu gihome ca Susa mu maboko ya Hegayi, na Esiteri nyene ajanwa mw’ingoro y’umwami, mu maboko ya Hegayi, umurinzi w’abagore. ⁹Uwo mwigeme aramuhimbara kandi aronka umutima wiwe, aca ubwo nyene amuha ibimubayarira ubwiza n’ibimufungura, be n’abigeme barobanuwe indwi bo mw’ingoro y’umwami, maze amwimurira hamwe n’abasukukazi biwe mu kibanza ciza kuruta ibindi vyo mu rugo rw’abagore. ¹⁰Esiteri ntiyari yamenyesheje abantu babo canke umuryango wiwe, kuko Morderekayi yari yamubujije. ¹¹Imisi yose Morderekayi yaragendagenda imbere y’ikibuga c’urugo rw’abagore kugira amenye ingene Esiteri ameze n’ivyomushikira.

¹²Umwigeme wese yashikirwa n’akanya ko kuja kwa umwami Kiseruse inyuma y’amezi cumi n’abiri y’ibikorwa vyo kumubayarira ubwiza vyari vyategekanijwe: amezi atandatu y’amavuta ya miri, atandatu y’imibavu n’ibindi bimubayarira ubwiza. ¹³Umwigeme wese yaja kwa umwami muri ubu buryo: ivyo yasavye vyose yarabibimuhabwa kugira abijane kuva mu rugo rw’abagore aja mw’ingoro y’umwami. ¹⁴Yarinjira ku mugoroba; mu gitondo agaruka mu rugo rwa kabiri rw’abagore ruri mu maboko ya Shashigazi, inkone y’umwami irinda incoreke. Ntiyogarutse kwa umwami atari uko umwami yamunezerewe akamuhamagara mw’izina.

¹⁵Igihe Esiteri—umukobwa wa Abihayili, data wabo wa Morderekayi, uwari yaramwigize umukobwa wiwe bwite—yashikirwa n’akanya ko kuja kwa umwami, nta co yasavye atari ivyo Hegayi, inkone y’umwami irinda abagore, yamuhanuye. Esiteri yaronka umutima mu bamubona bose.

¹⁶Esiteri yajanywe kwa umwami Kiseruse mw’ingoro yiwe y’ubwami mu kwezi kwa cumi, ari ukwa Tebeti, mu mwaka ugira indwi w’ubwami bwiwe. ^a a v16 Tebeti ni ukwezi kwa cumi mu karorero k’Abaheburayo, mu nkengera ya Kigarama–Nzero.

¹⁷Umwami yarakunda Esiteri kuruta abagore bose; aronka umutima wiwe n’ubutoni imbere ya abigeme bose. Nuko ashira ikamba ry’ubwami ku mutwe wiwe amugira umwamikazi mu kibanza ca Vashiti.

¹⁸Umwami agirira inzimano nini abakuru biwe bose n’abasuku biwe—inzimano ya Esiteri. Atangaza ikiruhuko mu ntara kandi atanga ingabirano n’ukuboko kw’ubwami.

¹⁹Igihe abigeme batari baramenyana n’abagabo bakoranirizwa ubwa kabiri, Morderekayi yari yicaye ku muryango w’umwami. ²⁰Esiteri ntiyari yamenyesheje abantu babo canke umuryango wiwe, nk’uko Morderekayi yari yamubwiye; yaramwumviye nk’uko vyari bimeze igihe yamurera.

Morderekayi Amenya Umugambi Mubi wo Kugirira Umwami

²¹Muri iyo misi, Morderekayi yicaye ku muryango w’umwami, Bigitani na Tereshi, inkone zibiri z’umwami zirinda irembo, bararakara maze bagira umugambi wo kwica umwami Kiseruse. ²²Ariko Morderekayi aramenya uwo mugambi mubi, abibwira umwamikazi Esiteri, na we abimenyesha umwami mw’izina rya Morderekayi. ²³Ico kibazo kiraraba, kigasangwa ari ukuri, maze abo bagabo bompi bamanikwa ku giti. Ivyo vyandikwa mu gitabu c’ivyamamare imbere y’umwami.
