Aisazodzokerazve kuna mambo kunze kwokunge mambo afadzwa naye akamudana nezita rake.

¹⁵Nguva yaEsteri payakasvika—iye mwanasikana waAbhihairi, babamunini vaModhekai, uyo akanga amutora somwana wake—yokuenda kuna mambo, haana kukumbira chinhu kunze kweizvo Hegai, muranda wamambo wakachekwa anorinda vakadzi, aakamupa zano. Esteri akawana nyasha kuvanhu vose vaimuona.

¹⁷Mambo akada Esteri kupfuura vakadzi vose; akawana nyasha nokutenderwa naye kupfuura mhandara dzose. Naizvozvo akaisa korona youmambo pamusoro wake akamuita mambokadzi panzvimbo yaVhashiti.

¹⁸Mambo akaitira vakuru vake vose navaranda mabiko makuru—mabiko aEsteri. Akazivisa zuva rezororo munyika dzose uye akapa zvipo norupo rwoumambo.

¹⁹Zvino mhandara padzakaunganidzwa kechipiri, Modhekai akanga agere pasuo ramambo. ²⁰Esteri akanga asati azivisa rudzi rwake kana mhuri yake, sezvaakarairwa naModhekai; akamuteerera sezvaaingoita paakanga achimurera.
