Hamani, uje gusaba ko bamwica, abazwa uko umuntu yakubahwa — akavuga uko we ubwe yifuzaga kubahwa, hanyuma agategekwa kuyobora Morodekayi mu mihanda abitangaza. Abo mu rugo rwe babona ko kurimbuka kwe kuje.
6 1Muri iryo joro umwami abura ibitotsi, ategeka ko bazana igitabo cy'ibyibukwa, ari cyo nyandiko y'ibyakorwaga, kugira ngo bakimusomere. 2Hasangwa handitsemo ko Morodekayi yari yaratanze amakuru kuri Bigutana na Tereshi, abo bakomanyi babiri b'umwami bari bashinzwe kurinda umuryango, bari barashatse kwica umwami Ahasiwerusi. 3Umwami arabaza ati: “Ni icyubahiro cyangwa ikuzo ki Morodekayi yagororewe kubera ibyo?” Abahereza be baramusubiza bati: “Nta cyo yakorewe na gato.”
4Umwami aribaza ati: “Ni nde uri mu rugo?” Ariko Hamani yari amaze kwinjira mu rugo rwo hanze rw'ibwami, ngo asabe umwami kumanika Morodekayi ku giti cy'umusaraba yari yateguye.
5Abahereza b'umwami baramubwira bati: “Hamani ni we uhagaze mu rugo.” Umwami aravuga ati: “Nimumwinjize.”
6Hamani arinjira. Umwami aramubaza ati: “Ni iki cyakorerwa umuntu umwami yifuza kubaha?” Hamani aribwira ati: “Ni nde umwami yakwifuza kubaha kundusha?”
7Nuko Hamani abwira umwami ati: “Umuntu umwami yifuza kubaha, 8nibamuzanire umwitero wa cyami umwami yambaye, n'ifarasi umwami yagendeyeho, n'ikamba rya cyami ryo ku mutwe we. 9Uwo mwitero n'iyo farasi bijye mu maboko y'umwe mu bategetsi bakuru b'umwami. Bambike uwo muntu umwami yifuza kubaha, bamugendeze ku ifarasi mu irembo ry'umujyi, hanyuma bagende bamuranguriza imbere bati: ‘Uku ni ko bikorwa ku muntu umwami yifuza kubaha!’ ”
10Umwami abwira Hamani ati: “Ihute, ufate uwo mwitero n'iyo farasi nk'uko wavuze, maze ubigenze utyo kuri Morodekayi Umuyahudi wicaye ku irembo ry'umwami. Nta na kimwe wavuze ukeneho.”
11Nuko Hamani afata uwo mwitero n'iyo farasi, yambika Morodekayi, amugendeza ku ifarasi mu irembo ry'umujyi, amuranguriza imbere ati: “Uku ni ko bikorwa ku muntu umwami yifuza kubaha.”
12Nyuma y'ibyo Morodekayi asubira ku irembo ry'umwami, ariko Hamani yirukanka iwe afite akababaro, yitwikiriye umutwe. 13Hamani atekerereza umugore we Zereshi n'incuti ze zose ibyamubayeho byose. Nuko abajyanama be n'umugore we Zereshi baramubwira bati: “Kubera ko Morodekayi watangiye kugwa imbere ye ari Umuyahudi, ntushobora kumutsinda, ahubwo uzagwa imbere ye nta kabuza.” 14Bakivugana na we, abakomanyi b'umwami bahageze, bihutira kujyana Hamani mu nzoga Esiteri yari yateguye.
