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.
त्यस रात राजा सुत्न सकेनन् । तिनले सेवकहरूलाई आफ्नो राज्यकालका घटनाहरूको विवरणहरू ल्याउन हुकुम गरे, र राजाको सामु चर्को सोरमा ति पढियो ।
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.
प्रवेशद्वारको पहरा दिने राजाका दुई जना अधिकारी बिग्थाना र तेरेशले राजा अहासूरसलाई हानि गर्ने कोसिस गरेका कुरा मोर्दकैले जानकरी गराएका थिए भनी त्यहाँ लेखिएको पाइयो ।
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.
राजाले सोधे, “यसो गरेका हुनाले मोर्दकैलाई सम्मान वा पद दिन के गरियो त?” तब राजाको सेवा गर्ने जवान मानिसहरूले जवाफ दिए, “तिनको लागि केही गरिएन ।”
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.
राजाले भने, “चोकमा को छ?” अब हामानचाहिं भर्खरै आफूले तयार गरेको फाँसीको काठमा मोर्दकैलाई झुण्ड्याउन भनी राजासित बिन्ती गर्न राजदरबारको बाहिर चोकमा आइपुगेका थिए ।
5 So the king’s attendants answered him, “Haman is there, standing in the court.” “Bring him in,” ordered the king.
राजाका सेवकहरूले तिनलाई भने, “हामान चोकमा उभिरहेका छन् ।” राजाले भने, “तिनी भित्र आऊन् ।”
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?”
जब हामान भित्र आए, तब राजाले तिनलाई सोधे, “राजाले सम्मान दिन इच्छा गरेको मानिसलाई के गरिनुपर्छ?” हामानले आफ्नो हृदयमा भने, “मबाहेक अरू कसलाई राजाले सम्मान दिने इच्छा गर्नुहुन्छ र?”
7 And Haman told the king, “For the man whom the king is delighted to honor,
हामानले राजालाई भने, “जुन मानिसलाई राजाले सम्मान दिन इच्छा गर्नुभएको छ,
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.
राजाकीय पोशाक, राजाले पहिरिनुभएको वस्त्र अनि राजाले सवार गर्नुभएको शिरमा राजकीय चिन्ह लगाइएको घोडा ल्याइयोस् ।
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!’”
तब त्यो पोशाक र घोडा राजाका सबैभन्दा माननीय अधिकारीहरूमध्ये एक जनालाई दिइयोस् । राजाले सम्मान गर्न खोज्नुभएको मानिसलाई तिनीहरूले त्यो पोशाक पहिराऊन्, र तिनलाई घोडामा सवार गराएर सहरका सडकहरू घुमाऊन् । तिनीहरूले तिनको सामु घोषणा गरून्, 'राजाले सम्मान गर्ने इच्छा गर्नुभएको मानिसलाई यसै गरिन्छ' ।”
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.”
तब राजाले हामानलाई भने, “छिटो गर, तिमीले भनेझैँ पोशाक र घोडा लिएर आऊ, अनि राजाको ढाकामा बस्ने यहूदी मोर्दकैलाई यसै गर । तिमीले भनेका एउटै कुरा गर्न पनि नचुक ।”
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!”
तब हामानले पोशाक र घोडा ल्याए । तिनले मोर्दकैलाई उक्त पोशाक लगाइदिए, र तिनलाई घोडामा सवार गराएर सहरका सडकहरूमा घुमाए । तिनको सामु तिनले घोषणा गरे, “राजाले सम्मान गर्न इच्छा गर्नुभएको मानिसलाई यसै गरिन्छ ।”
12 Then Mordecai returned to the king’s gate. But Haman rushed home, with his head covered in grief.
मोर्दकै राजाको ढोकामा फर्के । तर हामानचाहिं शिर ढाकेर शोक गर्दै हतार गरी आफ्नो घरमा गए ।
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.”
हामानले आफूमाथि आइपरेका सबै कुरा आफ्नी पत्नी जेरेश र आफ्ना सबै मित्रहरूलाई बताए । तब बुद्धिको निम्ति कहलिएका तिनका मानिसहरू र तिनकी पत्नी जेरेशले तिनलाई भने, “मोर्दकै जसको सामुन्ने तपाईंको पतनको सुरु भएको छ, त्यो यहूदी हो भने तपाईंले त्यसलाई पराजित गर्न सक्नुहुनेछैन, तर निश्चय नै त्यसको सामु तपाईं पतन हुनेछ ।”
14 While they were still speaking with Haman, the king’s eunuchs arrived and rushed him to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
तिनीहरू तिनीसित कुराकानी गरिरहँदा राजाका अधिकारीहरू आइपुगे । एस्तरले तयार पारेको भोजमा लैजान तिनीहरूले हामानलाई हतार गरे ।
