2 ¹Akyiri yi, bere a Ɔhene Ahasweros abufuw no dwoe no, ɔkaee Wasti ne nea ɔyɛe ne mmara a wɔhyɛɛ tiaa no no. ²Ɔhene no asomfo kae se, “Ma wɔnhwehwɛ mmabaawa ahoɔfɛfo a wɔnnim barima mma ɔhene no. ³Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no yi mpanyimfo wɔ nʼahenni no amantam biara mu, na wɔboaboa mmabaawa ahoɔfɛfo a wɔnnim barima no nyinaa ano de wɔn ba Susa aban mu, mmea fi a ɛwɔ Hegai, ɔhene piraa a ɔhwɛ mmea no so, ase no mu, na wɔmfa ahosiesie nnuru mma wɔn. ⁴Ma ababaawa a ɔsɔ ɔhene no ani no nni hene wɔ Wasti anan mu.” Asɛm yi sɔɔ ɔhene no ani, na ɔyɛɛ saa.

⁵Wɔ Susa aban mu no, Yudani bi a ne din de Mordekai te hɔ; ɔyɛ Yair ba, Simei ba, Kis ba, Benyaminni, ⁶a wɔfaa no nnommum fii Yerusalem ka nnommumfo a wɔne Yuda hene Yekonia kɔe no ho, wɔn a Babilon hene Nebukadnessar de wɔn kɔe no. ⁷Ɔretete Hadasa—Ester—ne wɔfa babea a onni agya ne ɛna no. Ababaawa no ho yɛ fɛ, na ne hwɛ yɛ anika; bere a nʼagya ne ne na wuwui no, Mordekai faa no sɛ ɔno ankasa babea.

⁸Bere a wɔtee ɔhene no ahyɛde ne ne mmara no, na mmabaawa pii boaa wɔn ho ano baa Susa aban mu wɔ Hegai hwɛ ase no, wɔde Ester nso kɔɔ ɔhene ahemfi hɔ, Hegai a ɔhwɛ mmea no so no hwɛ ase. ⁹Ababaawa no sɔɔ Hegai ani, na onyaa nʼadom, enti ɔyɛɛ ntɛm de ahosiesie nnuru ne aduan kyɛfa maa no, ne mmabaawa ason a wɔayi wɔn afi ɔhene ahemfi, na ɔde Ester ne ne mmaawa no kɔɔ mmea fi no mu baabi a ɛyɛ papa sen biara. ¹⁰Ester ankyerɛ ne nkurɔfo anaa nʼabusua, efisɛ Mordekai ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnnyɛ saa. ¹¹Da biara Mordekai nam mmea fi no adiwo anim kɔ na ɔba, sɛ ɔbɛhu sɛnea Ester te ne nea ɛto no.

¹²Ansa na ababaawa biara bere du sɛ ɔkɔ Ɔhene Ahasweros nkyɛn no, na ɛsɛ sɛ odi ahosiesie ho nhyehyɛe abosome dumien: abosome nsia a ɔde kurobo ngo, ne abosome nsia a ɔde aduhwam ne ahosiesie nneɛma. ¹³Saa na ababaawa biara kɔɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn: nea obisae biara no, wɔde maa no sɛ ɔmfa mfi mmea fi no nkɔ ɔhene ahemfi. ¹⁴Anwummere na ɔkɔ hɔ; anɔpa no, ɔsan kɔ mmea fi a ɛto so abien a ɛwɔ Saasgas, ɔhene piraa a ɔhwɛ mpenafo no so, ase no mu. Ɔnsan nkɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn bio, gye sɛ ɔhene no ani gye ne ho na ɔbɔ ne din frɛ no.

¹⁵Bere a Ester—Abihail a ɔyɛ Mordekai wɔfa no babea, a Mordekai faa no sɛ ne ba no—bere duu sɛ ɔkɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn no, wanhwehwɛ biribiara gye nea Hegai, ɔhene piraa a ɔhwɛ mmea no so, tuu no fo sɛ ɔnyɛ no. Ester nyaa adom wɔ wɔn a wohuu no nyinaa anim.

¹⁶Wɔde Ester kɔɔ Ɔhene Ahasweros nkyɛn wɔ nʼahemfi mu wɔ ɔsram a ɛto so du, Tebet, wɔ nʼahenni afe a ɛto so ason mu. ^a a v16 Tebet ne Hebrifo kalenda so ɔsram a ɛto so du; ɛbɛyɛ Disember kosi Januari.

¹⁷Ɔhene no dɔɔ Ester sen mmea no nyinaa; onyaa nʼadom, na nʼani sɔɔ no sen mmabaawa a wɔnnim barima no nyinaa. Enti ɔde ahenkyɛw no guu ne ti so, na ɔde no yɛɛ ɔhemmaa sii Wasti anan mu.

¹⁸Ɔhene no too pon kɛse maa ne mpanyimfo ne nʼasomfo nyinaa—Ester pon. Ɔbɔɔ ahomegye da ho dawuru wɔ amantam no mu, na ɔde ɔhene ayamye kyɛɛ akyɛde.

¹⁹Afei bere a wɔboaboaa mmabaawa a wɔnnim barima no ano ne mprenu so no, na Mordekai te ɔhene abobow ano. ²⁰Ester ankyerɛ ne nkurɔfo anaa nʼabusua, sɛnea Mordekai hyɛɛ no; otiee no sɛnea na ɔyɛ bere a Mordekai retete no no.

Mordekai Hu Pɔw Bi a Wɔbɔɔ Tiaa Ɔhene No
