< Esther 6 >
1 But the Lord removed sleep from the king that night: and he told his servant to bring in the books, the registers of daily events, to read to him.
Ary tamin’ iny alina iny tsy nahita torimaso ny mpanjaka ka nampaka ny boky fitadidiana ny tantara; ary novakina teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izany.
2 And he found the records written concerning Mardochaeus, how he had told the king concerning the two chamberlains of the king, when they were keeping guard, and sought to lay hands on Artaxerxes.
Ka, indro, voasoratra fa Mordekay no niampanga an’ i Bigtana sy Taresy, roa lahy isan’ ny tsindranolahin’ i ny mpanjaka, dia ireo mpiambina teo am-baravarana izay nitady hamono an’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka.
3 And the king said, What honour or favour have we done to Mardochaeus? And the king's servants said, You have not done anything to him.
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Inona moa no fisandratana sy voninahitra mba efa nomena an’ i Mordekay noho izany? Fa hoy ny zatovon’ ny mpanjaka Izay nanompo azy: Tsy mbola nisy nomena azy.
4 And while the king was enquiring about the kindness of Mardochaeus, behold, Aman [was] in the court. And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now Aman was come in to speak to the king, that he should hang Mardochaeus on the gallows, which he had prepared.
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Iza no ao an-kianja ao? Ary Hamana kosa efa sendra tonga tao an-kianja ivelan’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ izay hiteny amin’ ny mpanjaka ny amin’ ny hanantonana an’ i Mordekay amin’ ilay hazo efa natsangany hanantonana azy.
5 And the king's servants said, Behold, Aman stands in the court. And the king said, Call him.
Ka hoy ny zatovon’ ny mpanjaka taminy: Indro, Hamana no mitsangana ao an-kianja. Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Asaovy miditra izy.
6 And the king said to Aman, What shall I do to the man whom I wish to honour? And Aman said within himself, Whom would the king honour but myself?
Dia niditra Hamana ka hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona no mendrika hatao amin’ izay lehilahy tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra? Ary Hamana nanao anakampo hoe: Koa iza indray moa no ho tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra afa-tsy izaho?
7 and he said to the king, As for the man whom the king wishes to honour,
Ka dia hoy Hamana tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Ny amin’ izay lehilahy tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra,
8 let the king's servants bring the robe of fine linen which the king puts on, and the horse on which the king rides,
aoka halaina izay akanjo fiandrianana efa niakanjoan’ ny mpanjaka sy soavaly izay efa nitaingenan’ ny mpanjaka sady voaisy satro-boninahitra ny lohany;
9 and let him give [it] to one of the king's noble friends, and let him array the man whom the king loves; and let him mount him on the horse, and proclaim through the street of the city, saying, Thus shall it be [done] to every man whom the king honours.
dia aoka izany fitafiana sy soavaly izany no hatolotra eo an-tànan’ ny anankiray izay malaza indrindra amin’ ny mpanapaka voatendrin’ ny mpanjaka, ary aoka izay lehilahy tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra no hampiakanjoina izany ka hampitaingenina amin’ ny soavaly, dia ho entina eny an-kalalahana eto an-tanàna, ary aoka hisy hiantso eo alohany hoe: Izao no hatao amin’ ny lehilahy izay tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra.
10 Then the king said to Aman, You have well said: so do to Mardochaeus the Jew, who waits in the palace, and let not a word of what you have spoken be neglected.
Dia hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Hamana: Faingana ary, alao ny akanjo sy ny soavaly araka ny voalazanao, ka dia ataovy araka izany amin’ i Mordekay Jiosy, izay mipetraka eo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka; aza asiana latsaka izay rehetra nolazainao.
11 So Aman took the robe and the horse, and arrayed Mardochaeus, and mounted him on the horse, and went through the street of the city, and proclaimed, saying, Thus shall it be to every man whom the king wishes to honour.
Dia nalain’ i Hamana ny akanjo sy ny soavaly, ka nampiakanjo an’ i Mordekay izy ary nampitaigina azy tamin’ ny soavaly, dia nitondra azy ho eny an-kalalahana teo an-tanàna ka niantso teo alohany hoe: Izao no hatao amin’ ny lehilahy izay tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra.
12 And Mardochaeus returned to the palace: but Aman went home mourning, and having his head covered.
Ary Mordekay niverina nankeo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny mpanjaka; fa Hamana kosa nody faingana ho any an-tranony sady nalahelo no nisaron-doha.
13 And Aman related the events that had befallen him to Zosara his wife, and to [his] friends: and his friends and his wife said to him, If Mardochaeus [be] of the race of the Jews, [and] you have begun to be humbled before him, you will assuredly fall, and you will not be able to withstand him, for the living God [is] with him.
Dia nolazain’ i Hamana tamin’ i Zaresy vadiny sy ny sakaizany rehetra izay zavatra nanjo azy. Ary hoy ny olon-kendry rehetra sy Zaresy vadiny taminy: Raha avy amin’ ny taranaky ny Jiosy Mordekay, izay efa niantomboka nandavo anao teo anatrehany, dia tsy haharesy azy mihitsy ianao, fa ho lavo eo anatrehany tokoa.
14 While they were yet speaking, the chamberlains arrived, to hasten Aman to the banquet which Esther had prepared.
Ary raha mbola niresaka taminy ihany ireo, dia tonga ny tsindranolahin’ ny mpanjaka ka naka faingana an’ i Hamana ho ny amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboarin’ i Estera.
