Esther 6
1 The same night the King slept not, and he comanded to bring ye booke of the records, and the chronicles: and they were read before ye King.
Saa anadwo no, ɔhene no antumi anna, enti ɔmaa ɔsomfoɔ bi kɔfaa nʼahemman mu abakɔsɛm nkrataa baeɛ sɛ wɔnkenkan nkyerɛ no.
2 Then it was found written that Mordecai had tolde of Bigtana, and Teresh two of the Kings eunuches, keepers of the dore, who sought to lay hands on the King Ahashuerosh.
Ɔhunuu sɛdeɛ Mordekai kɔdaa atirisopam bi adi, deɛ Bigtana ne Teres a na wɔyɛ apiafoɔ baanu a na wɔwɛn ɔhene no apono ano no pamee wɔ nkrataa no mu. Wɔpamm ɔhene no tiri so sɛ wɔbɛkum no.
3 Then the King sayde, What honour and dignitie hath bene giuen to Mordecai for this? And the Kings seruants that ministred vnto him, sayd, There is nothing done for him.
Ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn akatua anaa nkaeɛ adeɛ bɛn na wɔde ama Mordekai wɔ yei ho?” Asomfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Wɔnyɛɛ hwee mmaa no.”
4 And the King sayde, Who is in the court? (Now Haman was come into the inner court of the Kings house, that he might speake vnto the King to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him.)
Ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔhyɛ akyire hɔ adihɔ hɔ no?” Ɛbaa sɛ, na afei na Haman abɛduru ahemfie adihɔ a ɛwɔ akyire hɔ no a ɔrebɛka akyerɛ ɔhene no, na wasɛn Mordekai wɔ dua a wasi no so.
5 And the Kings seruants said vnto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the King sayd, Let him come in.
Nʼasomfoɔ no buaa ɔhene no sɛ, “Haman na ɔhyɛ hɔ.” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Momfa no mmra mu.”
6 And when Haman came in, the King saide vnto him, What shalbe done vnto ye man, whom the King will honour? Then Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the King do honour more then to me?
Enti, Haman kɔɔ mu, maa ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na menyɛ mfa nhyɛ ɔbarima a nokorɛm, ɔsɔ mʼani no animuonyam?” Haman bisaa ne ho sɛ, “Hwan na ɔfata sɛ ɔhene hyɛ no animuonyam sene me?”
7 And Haman answered the King, The man whome the King would honour,
Enti, ɔbuaa sɛ, “Sɛ ɔhene pɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ obi animuonyam a,
8 Let them bring for him royall apparell, which the King vseth to weare, and the horse that the King rideth vpon, and that the crowne royall may be set vpon his head.
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde nʼankasa ahentadeɛ mu baako ne nʼankasa pɔnkɔ a adehyeɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bɔ ne moma so ba.
9 And let the raiment and the horse be deliuered by the hand of one of the Kings most noble princes, and let them apparel the man (whome the King will honour) and cause him to ride vpon the horse thorow the streete of the citie, and proclayme before him, Thus shall it be done vnto the man, whome the King will honour.
Ka kyerɛ mmapɔmma no mu baako a ɔdi mu yie, na ɔmfa ahentadeɛ nhyɛ no, na ɔnni nʼanim mfa no mmra adwaberem hɔ a ɔte ɔhene no ankasa pɔnkɔ so. Ɛsɛ sɛ mmapɔmma no gye no akurum sɛ, ‘Saa na ɔhene yɛ wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ wɔn animuonyam no!’”
10 Then the King said to Haman, Make haste, take the rayment and the horse as thou hast said, and doe so vnto Mordecai the Iewe, that sitteth at the Kings gate: let nothing fayle of all that thou hast spoken.
Ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ Haman sɛ, “Ɛyɛ koraa! Ka wo ho kɔfa ahentadeɛ no ne me pɔnkɔ no, na yɛ sɛdeɛ wopɛ sɛ woyɛ no ma Yudani Mordekai a ɔte ahemfie ɛpono ano no. Mma wo werɛ mfiri sɛ wobɛyɛ biribiara a woaka ho asɛm no.”
11 So Haman tooke the rayment and the horse, and arayed Mordecai, and brought him on horse backe thorowe the streete of the citie, and proclaymed before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the King will honour.
Enti, Haman faa ahentadeɛ no de hyɛɛ Mordekai, de no tenaa Ɔhene no ankasa pɔnkɔ so, de no kɔɔ kuro no adwaberem hɔ a na ɔpae di nʼanim sɛ, “Saa na ɔhene yɛ wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ wɔn animuonyam no.”
12 And Mordecai came againe to the Kings gate, but Haman hasted home mourning and his head couered.
Akyire yi, Mordekai sane kɔɔ ahemfie hɔ ɛpono no ano, na Haman de ɔyea a ano yɛ den ne aniwuo yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ efie.
13 And Haman tolde Zeresh his wife, and all his friends all that had befallen him. Then sayd his wise men, and Zeresh his wife vnto him, If Mordecai be of the seede of the Iewes, before whom thou hast begunne to fall; thou shalt not preuaile against him, but shalt surely fall before him.
Ɛberɛ a Haman bɔɔ ne yere Seres ne ne nnamfonom nyinaa amaneɛ no, wɔkaa sɛ, “Esiane sɛ Mordekai a ɔguu wʼanim ase yi yɛ Yudani enti, nhyehyɛeɛ biara a wobɛyɛ atia no no renyɛ yie. Sɛ wotoa so tia no a, ɛbɛkɔ no bɔne ama wo.”
14 And while they were yet talking with him, came the Kings eunuches and hasted to bring Haman vnto the banket that Ester had prepared.
Ɛberɛ a wɔgu so rekasa no, ɔhene apiafoɔ no baeɛ sɛ, wɔrebɛfa Haman akɔ Ɛster apontoɔ a wasiesie no ase.
