Esther 5
1 And on the third day Ester put on her royal apparel, and stood in the court of the Kings palace within, ouer against the Kings house: and the King sate vpon his royal throne in the Kings palace ouer against the gate of the house.
Sou twazyèm jou a, Estè mete rad larenn li sou li, li ale, li kanpe nan lakou anndan palè a, devan salon wa a. Wa a te chita sou fòtèy li anndan salon an anfas pòt pou antre a.
2 And when the King saw Ester the Queene standing in the court, shee founde fauour in his sight: and the King held out the golden scepter that was in his hand: so Ester drewe neere, and touched the toppe of the scepter.
Lè wa a wè larenn Estè kanpe deyò a, sa te fè kè l' kontan, li lonje baton an lò ki te nan men l' lan ba li. Estè antre, li manyen pwent baton an.
3 Then saide the King vnto her, What wilt thou, Queene Ester? and what is thy request? it shall be euen giuen thee to the halfe of ye kingdome.
Wa a mande l': -Sa ki genyen, larenn Estè? Sa ou bezwen? Ou te mèt mande m' mwatye nan peyi a, m'ap ba ou li.
4 Then saide Ester, If it please the King, let the King and Haman come this day vnto the banket, that I haue prepared for him.
Estè reponn li: -Si sa fè wa a plezi, mwen ta renmen wa a vini ansanm ak Aman nan yon ti fèt m'ap fè pou li lakay mwen aswè a.
5 And the King sayd, Cause Haman to make haste that he may doe as Ester hath sayde. So the King and Haman came to the banket that Ester had prepared.
Lamenm wa a di: -Kouri vit al chache Aman pou n' al kay Estè ki envite nou. Se konsa, wa a ale nan ti fèt Estè te fè pou li a ansanm ak Aman.
6 And the King sayd vnto Ester at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, that it may be giuen thee? and what is thy request? it shall euen be performed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
Pandan yo t'ap bwè diven, wa a mande Estè konsa: -Di m' sa ou vle, m'ap ba ou li. Ou te mèt mande m' mwatye nan peyi a, m'ap ba ou li.
7 Then answered Ester, and sayd, My petition and my request is,
Estè reponn, li di konsa: -Sa m' bezwen...? Sa m' ta mande ou...?
8 If I haue found fauour in the sight of the King, and if it please the King to giue me my petition, and to perfourme my request, let the King and Haman come to the banket that I shall prepare for them, and I will doe to morowe according to the Kings saying.
Si wa a kontan avè m', si se plezi li pou li ban m' sa m' vle a, pou li fè sa m'a mande l' fè a. mwen ta renmen wa a ansanm ak Aman vini denmen lakay mwen pou yon lòt ti fèt m'ap fè pou li ansanm ak Aman. Lè sa a, m'a di monwa sa m' bezwen.
9 Then went Haman forth the same day ioyfull and with a glad heart. But when Haman sawe Mordecai in the Kings gate, that he stoode not vp, nor moued for him, then was Haman full of indignation at Mordecai.
Jou sa a, lè Aman soti nan fèt la, li te kontan, li t'ap ri ak tout moun. Men, lè li rive bò pòtay palè a, li wè Madoche pa menm fè yon rimay leve lè l'ap pase. Li move anpil sou Madoche,
10 Neuerthelesse Haman refrayned himselfe: and when he came home, he sent, and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
men li pa kite moun wè sa, epi li al lakay li. Lèfini, li fè chache zanmi l' yo, epi li mande madanm li Zerès pou li vini tou.
11 And Haman tolde them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the King had promoted him, and how that he had set him aboue the princes and seruants of the King.
Aman konmanse pale devan yo, li di yo jan li rich, jan li gen lajan, konbe pitit gason li genyen, jan wa a te moute l' grad, li te mete l' chèf anwo tout lòt chèf ak tout lòt moun k'ap sèvi nan gouvenman an.
12 Haman sayde moreouer, Yea, Ester the Queene did let no man come in with the King to the banket that she had prepared, saue me: and to morowe am I bidden vnto her also with the King.
Lèfini, li di: -Sa ki pi rèd, larenn Estè fè fèt pou wa a, kilès ou kwè li envite? Mwen menm ase, pèsonn ankò! Men li envite m' pou denmen ankò!
13 But al this doth nothing auaile me, as long as I see Mordecai ye Iewe sitting at ye Kings gate.
Men, tou sa pa di m' anyen, toutotan m'a wè jwif yo rele Madoche a chita nan papòt palè wa a.
14 Then sayde Zeresh his wife and all his friends vnto him, Let them make a tree of fiftie cubites hie, and to morowe speake thou vnto the King, that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then shalt thou goe ioyfully with the King vnto the banket. And the thing pleased Haman, and he caused to make the tree.
Lè sa a, Zerès, madanm li, ak tout zanmi l' yo di l' konsa: -Poukisa ou pa fè yo kanpe yon poto swasannkenz pye wotè nan lakou lakay ou? Denmen maten, w'a mande wa a pou yo pann Madoche nan poto a. Apre sa, wa va ale nan fèt la ak kè kontan. Aman wè se te yon bon lide yo te ba li la a. Li fè kanpe yon poto swasannkenz pye wotè nan lakou lakay li.
