2 Da Kongen så Dronning Ester stå i Gården, fandt hun Nåde for hans Øjne, og Kongen rakte det gyldne Scepter, som han havde i Hånden, ud imod Ester. Da trådte Ester hen og rørte ved Spidsen af Scepteret;
And it was when saw the king Esther the queen standing in the court she bore favor in view his and he extended the king to Esther [the] scepter of gold which [was] in hand his and she drew near Esther and she touched [the] top of the scepter.
3 og Kongen sagde til hende: "Hvad fattes dig, Dronning Ester, og hvad er dit Ønske? Om det så er Halvdelen af Riget, skal du få det!
And he said to her the king what? [is] to you O Esther the queen and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom so it may be given to you.
4 Ester svarede: "Hvis Kongen synes, vil jeg bede Kongen og Haman om i Dag at komme til et Gæstebud, jeg har gjort rede for ham."
And she said Esther if [is] on the king good let him come the king and Haman this day to the feast which I have made for him.
5 Da sagde Kongen: Send hurtigt Bud efter Haman, for at Esters Ønske kan blive opfyldt!" Så kom Haman og Kongen til det Gæstebud, Ester havde gjort rede,
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.
6 og da de sad ved Vinen, sagde Kongen til Ester: Hvad er din Bøn? Du skal få den opfyldt. Og hvad er dit Ønske? Om det så er Halvdelen af Riget, skal det tilstås dig!

7 Ester svarede: "Min Bøn og mit Ønske er
And she answered Esther and she said petition my and request my.
8 hvis jeg har fundet Nåde for Kongens Øjne, og hvis det synes Kongen ret at opfylde min Bøn og tilstå mig mit Ønske, så komme Kongen og Haman til et Gæstebud, jeg vil gøre rede for dem. I Morgen vil jeg da gøre, som Kongen siger!"
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.
9 Haman gik glad og vel til Mode derfra den Dag. Men da Haman så Mordokaj i Kongens Port, og han hverken rejste sig op eller rørte sig af Pletten for ham, opfyldtes han af Vrede mod Mordokaj.
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.
10 Dog tvang han sig; men da han var kommet hjem, sendte han Bud efter sine Venner og sin Hustru Zeresj;
And he restrained himself Haman and he went to house his and he sent and he gathered friends his and Zeresh wife his.
11 og Haman talte til dem om sin overvættes Rigdom og sine mange Sønner og om al den Ære, Kongen havde vist ham, og hvorledes han havde udmærket ham frem for Fyrsterne og Kongens Folk.
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.
12 Og Haman sagde: Dronning Ester lod heller ikke andre end mig komme med Kongen til det Gæstebud, hun havde gjoet rede; og jeg er også indbudt af hende til i Morgen sammen med Kongen.
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.
13 Men alt det er mig ikke nok, så længe jeg ser denne Jøde Mordokaj sidde i Kongens Port."
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.
14 Da sagde hans Hustru Zeresj og alle hans Venner til ham: "Lad en Galge rejse, halvtredsindstyve Alen høj, og bed i Morgen tidlig Kongen om, at Mordokaj må blive hængt i den; så kan du gå glad til Gæstebudet med Kongen. Det vandt Hamans Bifald, og han lod Galgen rejse.
