< Esther 6 >

1 That night sleep escaped the king; so he ordered the Book of Records, the Chronicles, to be brought in and read to him.
Otienono nindo notamore tero ruoth; mi nochiko mondo okelne Kitabu mondikie weche mag ndalo, kendo mondikie gik mosetimore e kinde mag lochne, mondo okel kendo osomne.
2 And there it was found recorded that Mordecai had exposed Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs who guarded the king’s entrance, when they had conspired to assassinate King Xerxes.
Kitabuno noyud kondikie ni Modekai ema nofwenyo kaka Bigthana gi Teresh, jotelo mane rito dhoranga ruoth, nosechano mondo oneg ruoth Ahasuerus.
3 The king inquired, “What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this act?” “Nothing has been done for him,” replied the king’s attendants.
Ruoth nopenjo niya, “Angʼo mosetim kimiyogo Modekai duongʼ kuom gima notimono?” Jotichne nodwoko niya, “Onge gima osetimne.”
4 “Who is in the court?” the king asked. Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the palace to ask the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows he had prepared for him.
Eka ruoth nopenjo niya, “En ngʼa manie laru?” Noyudo ka koro eka Haman donjo e laru ma oko mar dala ruoth mondo owuo gi ruoth kuom wach mar nego Modekai kolier e gima noselosone.
5 So the king’s attendants answered him, “Haman is there, standing in the court.” “Bring him in,” ordered the king.
Omiyo jotije nowachone niya, “Haman ema ochungʼ e laru.” Ruoth nogolo chik niya, “Kele ira ka.”
6 Haman entered, and the king asked him, “What should be done for the man whom the king is delighted to honor?” Now Haman thought to himself, “Whom would the king be delighted to honor more than me?”
Kane Haman osedonjo, ruoth nopenje niya, “Angʼo monego tim ne ngʼat ma ruoth dwaro miyo duongʼ?” Koro Haman noparo kende niya, “Ere ngʼama ruoth dimi duongʼ ma ok an?”
7 And Haman told the king, “For the man whom the king is delighted to honor,
Omiyo nodwoko ruoth niya, “Ngʼama ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ,
8 have them bring a royal robe that the king himself has worn and a horse on which the king himself has ridden—one with a royal crest placed on its head.
mondo okel lep ruoth mag duongʼ moserwako gi faras ma ruoth oseidho, man-gi osimbo mar joka ruoth kosidhne e wiye.
9 Let the robe and the horse be entrusted to one of the king’s most noble princes. Let them array the man the king wants to honor and parade him on the horse through the city square, proclaiming before him, ‘This is what is done for the man whom the king is delighted to honor!’”
Eka mondo gikaw lawno gi faras mondo gimi jatelo mogen, kendo girwak ngʼat ma ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ, ka gitelo e nyim faras motingʼe e yore mag dala maduongʼ, kendo ka gigoyo milome e nyime ni, ‘Ma e kaka itimo ne ngʼama ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ!’”
10 “Hurry,” said the king to Haman, “and do just as you proposed. Take the robe and the horse to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting at the king’s gate. Do not neglect anything that you have suggested.”
Ruoth nochiko Haman kowacho niya, “Dhi piyo.” Kaw law gi faras mondo itim duto misewacho ne Modekai ma ja-Yahudi, mabetga e dhoranga ruoth. Kik iwe kata mana gimoro achiel kuom gik ma isewacho.
11 So Haman took the robe and the horse, arrayed Mordecai, and paraded him through the city square, crying out before him, “This is what is done for the man whom the king is delighted to honor!”
Omiyo Haman nokawo law gi faras. Norwako ne Modekai lawno mokete oidho faras ka otelo nyime owuotho kode e yore mag dala maduongʼ ka owacho gi dwol maduongʼ niya, “Ma e kaka itimo ne ngʼat ma ruoth morgo mar miyo duongʼ!”
12 Then Mordecai returned to the king’s gate. But Haman rushed home, with his head covered in grief.
Ka Modekai noseduogo e dhoranga ruoth. Haman to noreto kadok e ode, ka chunye opongʼ gi lit,
13 Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened. His advisers and his wife Zeresh said to him, “Since Mordecai, before whom your downfall has begun, is Jewish, you will not prevail against him—for surely you will fall before him.”
kendo nonyiso Zeresh ma chiege gi osiepene duto gik moko duto mane otimorene. Joma ngʼadone rieko gi Zeresh ma chiege nowachone niya, “Mano kaka rumo mari osechakore e nyim Modekai ma to en ja-Yahudi, ok ininyale kendo adier obiro miyo irum chuth!”
14 While they were still speaking with Haman, the king’s eunuchs arrived and rushed him to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
Kane pod giwuoyo kode, jotich ruoth mabwoch nochopo mapiyo mokawo Haman ka gitere mondo odhi e nyasi ma Esta noseloso.
