< Esther 6 >
1 On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
Te kah khoyin ah tah manghai te a ih hoelh. Te dongah khokhuen olka poekkoepnah cabu te loh hamla a thui pah. Te vaengah manghai mikhmuh ah aka tae pah ham khaw om uh.
2 And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
Te vaengah cingkhaa aka tawt, manghai imkhoem rhoi Bigthan neh Teresh loh manghai Ahasuerus kut hlah thil ham a mae rhoi vaengah Mordekai a puen pah tila a daek te a hmuh.
3 And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him.
Te dongah manghai loh, “He dongah Mordekai ham umponah neh lennah metlam a saii?” a ti nah. Te vaengah amah taengah aka thotat manghai kah tueihyoeih rhoek loh, “Anih ham hno pakhat khaw a saii pah moenih,” a ti uh.
4 And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king’s house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
Manghai loh, “Vongup kah te unim?” a ti vaengah, Haman tah thing dongah Mordekai kuiok sak ham a tawn te manghai taengah thui hamla manghai im kah vongup khuila lom kun.
5 And the king’s servants said unto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
Te vaengah manghai kah tueihyoeih rhoek loh a taengah, “Haman vongup ah pai ke,” a ti uh. Te dongah manghai loh, “Ha kun saeh,” a ti nah.
6 So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?
Haman a kun van neh a taengah, “Manghai loh amah kah umponah dongah khueh a ngaih hlang ham te manghai loh balae a saii pa eh?” a ti nah. Te vaengah Haman loh a lungbuei ah, “Manghai loh kai lakah aka hoeikhang te umponah saii pah ham unim a ngaih?” a ti.
7 And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour,
Te dongah Haman loh manghai taengah, “Manghai loh amah kah umponah dongah khueh a ngaih hlang te,
8 Let the royal apparel be brought which the king [useth] to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head:
manghai amah pum dongkah a bai nawn manghai pueinak, manghai loh a soah a ngol thil marhang, a lu dongah a khuem manghai rhuisam te khuen saeh.
9 And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that they may array the man [withal] whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
Te phoeiah pueinak neh marhang te angrhaeng manghai kah mangpa rhoek lamkah pakhat kut ah pae saeh. Te vaengah manghai loh amah kah umponah dongah khueh ham a ngaih hlang te bai sak saeh. Te phoeiah anih te khopuei toltung la marhang dongah ngol sak saeh lamtah a hmai ah, ‘Manghai loh amah kah umponah khuiah khueh a ngaih hlang ham tah he tlam ni a saii,’ tila doek saeh,” a ti nah.
10 Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, [and] take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.
Te phoeiah manghai loh Haman te, “Na thui bangla pueinak neh marhang te tlek lo lamtah manghai vongka ah aka ngol Judah Mordekai ham saii pah. Na thui boeih te ol pakhat khaw rhul sak boeh,” a ti nah.
11 Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
Te dongah Haman loh pueinak neh marhang te a loh tih Mordekai te a bai sak. Te phoeiah anih te khopuei toltung la a ngol sak tih a hmai ah, “Manghai loh amah kah umponah khuiah khueh a ngaih hlang ham tah he tlam ni a saii,” tila a doek.
12 And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
Te phoeiah Mordekai te manghai vongka la mael. Tedae Haman tah a im la mael paitok tih rhahdoe cangpoem ah a lu te a muei.
13 And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every [thing] that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai [be] of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.
Haman loh a taengah aka thoeng boeih te a yuu Zeresh taeng neh a lungnah boeih taengah a thui. Te vaengah amah te a hlangcueih rhoek neh a yuu Zeresh loh, “Mordekai te Judah tiingan lamkah koinih, a mikhmuh ah cungku sak ham na tong cakhaw anih te na noeng mahpawh, a mikhmuh ah rhep na cungku rhoe na cungku ni,” a ti nah.
14 And while they [were] yet talking with him, came the king’s chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the banquet that Esther had prepared.
Anih te a thui uh li vaengah manghai imkhoem rhoek ha pawk uh tih Haman te Esther kah a saii buhkoknah kung la tlek a khuen uh.
