MWAMI MUKAITU WEELEDE KUVWUNININA
Mumwaka wakwe wakulela watatu (493 B.C.E.), Mwami Ahasuera wabamba pobwe. Mwami Mukaintu Vasiti, uuzyibidwe kapati akaambo kakweebeka kwakwe, taakkomaninwa amwami alimwi wanyangwa cuuno cakwe cabulelo. Musimbi mu Juda wazina lya Hadasa wasalwa akati kabasimbi beebelwa nzoka mubwina bamucisi, kutegwa abweze busena bwakwe. Kwiinda mukulaililwa amunyina Moodekai, wasisa zina lyakwe lyaba Juda akubelesya zina lyaba Persia lyakuti Esita.
Mukuya kwaciindi, mwaalumi uulisumpula wazina lya Hamani waba wabili mubulelo. Hamani wanyema akaambo kakukaka kwa Moodekai ‘kumukotamina naa kumuvundamina Hamani,’ aboobo waba amuzeezo wakujaya ba Juda boonse mu Bulelo bwa Persia. (Esita 3:2) Hamani wamoongelezya Ahasuera kuti azumine kumuzeezo ooyu alimwi wazwidilila mukupa kuti mwami abikke mulawo uutizuzikizye makanze aakwe. Moodekai wasama “masaka akulibikka twe.” (Esita 4:1, BT) Lino Esita weelede kugwasya. Wabamba pobwe, kumane watamba buyo bobilo luzutu mwami aumutobela mubulelo. Mbwaanga lyabakonda pobwe eeli, Esita wabalomba kuti alimwi bakaboole kupobwe limbi buzuba butobela. Hamani ulikkomene. Nokuba boobo, ulinyemede nkaambo Moodekai wakaka kumulemeka. Hamani waba amuzeezo wakujaya Moodekai, ipobwe liccilila kalitanatalika.

Alimwi “Esita wakeza kumyoyo yabo boonse bakamubona.” (Esita 2:15) Awalo mwami wakabotelwa abuumi bwa Esita, aboobo wakamuyanda.

Pele kuli Hamani, kwakali twaambo tunji twakapa kuti atakotami. Hamani wakali muna Agagi uulibonya kuti wakali waluzubo lwa Amaleki, alimwi Jehova wakakanzide kubajaya bana Amaleki boonse.
