Esta 5
1 Chiengʼ mar adek Esta norwako lawe mar duongʼ kaka mikach ruoth mochungʼ e laru maiye mar dala ruoth, kama omanyore gi ot maduongʼ ma ruoth bedoe; Ruoth ne oyudo obedo e kome mar duongʼ e ot, kama omanyore gi dhoot.
And it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and placed herself in the inner court of the king's house, opposite the king's apartment; and the king was sitting upon his royal throne in the royal apartment, opposite to the entrance of the house.
2 Kane oneno ruoth madhako miluongo ni Esta ma mikache kochungʼ e laru, nomor kode mi otingʼone ludhe mar dhahabu mane ni e lwete. Omiyo Esta nodhi momulo wi luth.
And it happened, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained grace in his eyes; and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand; and Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.
3 Eka ruoth nopenjo Esta niya, “En angʼo? En angʼo midwaro kwayo? Kwa akwaya kata obed mana nus mar pinya, to ibiro miyi.”
Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? if it be equal to half of the kingdom it shall still be given thee.
4 Esta nodwoko ruoth niya, “Ka ihera kendo ineno ni ber miya gima akwayo, to yie ibi gi Haman e nyasi maselosonu.”
And Esther said, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet which I have prepared for him.
5 Ruoth nowacho mondo okel Haman piyo, mondo mi watim gima Esta okwayo. Omiyo ruoth kod Haman ne odhi e nyasi mane Esta oseloso.
Then said the king, Bring Haman quickly hither to fulfill the word of Esther: so came the king with Haman to the banquet which Esther had prepared.
6 Kane onwangʼo gimadho divai, ruoth nochako openjo Esta niya, “Koro angʼo midwaro kwayo? Ibiro miyigo. En angʼo mikwayo? Kata obed nus mar pinya to oyieni mondo ikawe.”
And the king said unto Esther at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? even if it be equal to half of the kingdom, it shall still be done.
7 Eka Esta nodwoko niya, Kwayona gi dwarona ema:
Then answered Esther, and said, My petition and my request are,
8 Ka ruoth otimona ngʼwono kendo ihera kendo ka iyie mondo itim kwayona, to yie mondo ruoth gi Haman mondo obi e nyasi ma kiny nalosnu. Eka abiro dwoko ruoth penjoneno.
If I have found grace in the eyes of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to fulfill my request, that the king may come with Haman to the banquet which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow will I do according to the word of the king.
9 Haman nowuok kanyo kamor kendo ka chunye opongʼ gi ilo. To kane oneno Modekai e dhoranga ruoth ka ok ochungʼ ne kata nyiso luor e nyime, mirima nomake nikech Modekai.
And Haman went forth on that day joyful and with a glad heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, who did not rise up, nor move out of the way for him, then was Haman filled against Mordecai with fury.
10 Kata kamano, Haman nomako chunye mi nodhi dala. Noluongo osiepene kamoro achiel gi Zeresh ma jaode.
Nevertheless Haman refrained himself, and went to his house: he then sent and had his friends brought in with Zeresh his wife.
11 Haman nosungorenegi kaka en-gi mwandu mathoth, gi yawuowi mangʼeny, to gi kaka ruoth osemiye duongʼ moloyo jotelo gi jodongo mamoko.
And Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had made him great, and how he had advanced him above the princes and the servants of the king.
12 Haman nomedo wacho niya, “To ok mano kende, an kenda ema Esta mikach ruoth oluonga mondo adhi gi ruoth e nyasine moloso, to kiny bende oseluonga mondo wadhi gi ruoth.
And Haman said [farther], Yea, Esther the queen did not let any one come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself: and also for tomorrow am I invited unto her with the king.
13 To magi duto ok miya mor kapod aneno ja-Yahudi ma Modekai kobet e dhoranga ruoth.”
Yet all this profiteth me nothing, every time that I see Mordecai the Jew sitting in the king's gate.
14 Jaode ma Zeresh gi osiepene duto nongʼadone rieko niya, “Gur yath ma borne oromo fut piero abiriyo gabich mi liere ji, kendo ikwa ruoth gokinyi mondo oneg Modekai kolier kanyo. Eka mondo idhi uchiem gi ruoth ka imor.” Parono nomoro Haman, mi nogero gima inegogo ji koliergi.
Then said unto him Zeresh his wife with all his friends, Let them make a gallows of fifty cubits high, and in the mourning speak unto the king that they may hang Mordecai thereon; and then go thou in with the king unto the banquet joyfully. And the thing pleased Haman; and he had the gallows made.
