١ 1 وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ لَبِسَتْ أَسْتِيرُ ثِيَابًا مَلَكِيَّةً وَوَقَفَتْ فِي دَارِ بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةِ مُقَابِلَ بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَٱلْمَلِكُ جَالِسٌ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ مُلْكِهِ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلْمُلْكِ مُقَابِلَ مَدْخَلِ ٱلْبَيْتِ.

٣ 3 فَقَالَ لَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ: «مَا لَكِ يَا أَسْتِيرُ ٱلْمَلِكَةُ؟ وَمَا هِيَ طِلْبَتُكِ؟ إِلَى نِصْفِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ تُعْطَى لَكِ».

And he said the king bring quickly Haman to do [the] word of Esther and he came the king and Haman to the feast which she had made Esther.

٦ 6 فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِأَسْتِيرَ عِنْدَ شُرْبِ ٱلْخَمْرِ: «مَا هُوَ سُؤْلُكِ فَيُعْطَى لَكِ؟ وَمَا هِيَ طِلْبَتُكِ؟ إِلَى نِصْفِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ تُقْضَى».

And she answered Esther and she said petition my and request my.

٨ 8 إِنْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَإِذَا حَسُنَ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَنْ يُعْطَى سُؤْلِي وَتُقْضَى طِلْبَتِي، أَنْ يَأْتِيَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَهَامَانُ إِلَى ٱلْوَلِيمَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْمَلُهَا لَهُمَا، وَغَدًا أَفْعَلُ حَسَبَ أَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ».

If I have found favor in [the] eyes of the king and if [is] on the king good to grant petition my and to do request my let him come the king and Haman to the feast which I will make for them and tomorrow I will do according to [the] word of the king.

٩ 9 فَخَرَجَ هَامَانُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ فَرِحًا وَطَيِّبَ ٱلْقَلْبِ. وَلَكِنْ لَمَّا رَأَى هَامَانُ مُرْدَخَايَ فِي بَابِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَلَمْ يَقُمْ وَلَا تَحَرَّكَ لَهُ، ٱمْتَلَأَ هَامَانُ غَيْظًا عَلَى مُرْدَخَايَ.

And he went out Haman on the day that joyful and good of heart and just as saw Haman Mordecai at [the] gate of the king and not he stood up and not he trembled from him and he was filled Haman towards Mordecai rage.

١٠ 10 وَتَجَلَّدَ هَامَانُ وَدَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ وَأَرْسَلَ فَٱسْتَحْضَرَ أَحِبَّاءَهُ وَزَرَشَ زَوْجَتَهُ،

And he restrained himself Haman and he went to house his and he sent and he gathered friends his and Zeresh wife his.

١١ 11 وَعَدَّدَ لَهُمْ هَامَانُ عَظَمَةَ غِنَاهُ وَكَثْرَةَ بَنِيهِ، وَكُلَّ مَا عَظَّمَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِهِ وَرَقَّاهُ عَلَى ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَعَبِيدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

And he recounted to them Haman [about] [the] splendor of wealth his and [the] multitude of sons his and [about] all that he had made great him the king and this: he had exalted him above the officials and [the] servants of the king.

١٢ 12 وَقَالَ هَامَانُ: «حَتَّى إِنَّ أَسْتِيرَ ٱلْمَلِكَةَ لَمْ تُدْخِلْ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ إِلَى ٱلْوَلِيمَةِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَتْهَا إِلَّا إِيَّايَ. وَأَنَا غَدًا أَيْضًا مَدْعُوٌّ إِلَيْهَا مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

And he said Haman also not she let come [anyone] Esther the queen with the king to the feast which she had prepared that except me and also for tomorrow I [am] invited by her with the king.

١٣ 13 وَكُلُّ هَذَا لَا يُسَاوِي عِنْدِي شَيْئًا كُلَّمَا أَرَى مُرْدَخَايَ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّ جَالِسًا فِي بَابِ ٱلْمَلِكِ».

And all this not it [is] adequate for me at any time when I [am] seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting at [the] gate of the king.

١٤ 14 فَقَالَتْ لَهُ زَرَشُ زَوْجَتُهُ وَكُلُّ أَحِبَّائِهِ: «فَلْيَعْمَلُوا خَشَبَةً ٱرْتِفَاعُهَا خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ قُلْ لِلْمَلِكِ أَنْ يَصْلِبُوا مُرْدَخَايَ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ ٱدْخُلْ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ إِلَى ٱلْوَلِيمَةِ فَرِحًا». فَحَسُنَ ٱلْكَلَامُ عِنْدَ هَامَانَ وَعَمِلَ ٱلْخَشَبَةَ.

And she said to him Zeresh wife his and all friends his let people make a gallows high fifty cubit[s] and in the morning - speak to the king so people may hang Mordecai on it and go with the king to the feast joyful and it was good the word before Haman and he made the gallows.
