Esther 5
1 Now it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on [her] royal [apparel], and stood in the inner court of the king’s house, over against the king’s house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gate of the house.
Guyyaa sadaffaatti Asteer uffata ishee kan mootummaa uffatee dhaqxee oobdii masaraa mootichaa kan gara keessaa irra fuula galma mootichaa dura dhaabatte. Mootichi immoo galma sana keessa gara balbalaatti garagalee teessoo mootummaa isaa irra taaʼee ture.
2 And it was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, [that] she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that [was] in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.
Mootichis utuu Asteer Mootittiin oobdii keessa dhaabachaa jirtuu argee isheetti gammadee bokkuu warqee kan harkatti qabatee ture sana isheef diriirse. Kanaafuu Asteer itti dhiʼaattee fiixee bokkuu sanaa tuqxe.
3 And the king said, What will you, Esther? and what is your request? [ask] even to the half of my kingdom, and it shall be yours.
Mootichi, “Yaa Asteer Mootittii maal siif godhu? Maal barbaadda? Walakkaa mootummaa koo illee taanaan siif ni kennama” jedheen.
4 And Esther said, To-day is my great day: if then it seem good to the king, let both him and Aman come to the feast which I will prepare this day.
Asteeris, “Yoo wanni kun mooticha gammachiise, mootichi gara cidha ani isaaf qopheesse sanaa Haamaan wajjin harʼa haa dhufu” jettee deebifteef.
5 And the king said, Hasten Aman hither, that we may perform the word of Esther. So they both come to the feast of which Esther had spoken.
Mootichis, “Akka waan Asteer jette sana goonuuf dafaatii Hamaa fidaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu mootichii fi Haamaan gara cidha Asteer qopheessite sanaa dhaqan.
6 And at the banquet the king said to Esther, What is [your request], queen Esther? [speak], and you shall have all that you require.
Utuma daadhii wayinii dhuganuu mootichi amma illee akkana jedhee Asteerin gaafate; “Mee wanni ati kadhattu maal? Wanni sun siif kennama. Gaaffiin kee maali? Walakkaa mootummaa koo illee taanaan siif kennama.”
7 And she said, My request and my petition [are]:
Asteeris akkana jettee deebifteef; “Wanni ani kadhadhuu fi gaaffiin koo kanaa dha:
8 if I have found favor in the sight of the king, let the king and Aman come again to-morrow to the feast which I shall prepare for them, and to-morrow I will do the same.
Yoo ani fuula mootichaa duratti surraa argadhee mootichis kadhannaa koo fudhatee waan ani isa gaafadhe naaf guutuun isa gammachiise, mootichii fi Haamaan cidha ani isaaniif qopheessu irratti bor haa argaman. Ani ergasii gaaffii mootichaa nan deebisa.”
9 So Aman went out from the king very glad [and] merry: but when Aman saw Mardochaeus the Jew in the court, he was greatly enraged.
Gaafas Haamaan gammadee itti tolee gad baʼe. Inni garuu karra mootichaa duratti Mordekaayiin argee yommuu akka inni isaaf hin kaʼin yookaan isa hin sodaatin hubatetti Mordekaayiitti akka malee aare.
10 And having gone into his own house, he called his friends, and his wife Zosara.
Taʼu illee Haamaan of qabee mana isaatti gale. Ergasiis michoota isaatii fi niitii isaa Zeresh walitti qabe;
11 And he showed them his wealth, and the glory with which the king had invested him, and how he had caused him to take precedence and bear chief rule in the kingdom.
Haamaanis qabeenya isaa guddaa sanaan, ilmaan isaa hedduu sanaan akkasumas ulfina mootichi isaaf kenne hundaa fi akkaataa itti mootichi qondaaltota isaatii fi tajaajiltoota isaa kaanii olitti isa guddiseen isaanitti of jaje.
12 And Aman said, The queen has called no one to the feast with the king but me, and I am invited to-morrow.
Haamaan itti fufee akkana jedhe; “Kana qofa miti; namni Asteer Mootittiin akka mooticha wajjin gara cidha qopheessite sanaa dhufu waamte anuma qofa. Boris akkasuma mooticha wajjin na affeerteerti.
13 But these things please me not, while I see Mardochaeus the Jew in the court.
Taʼus wanni kun hundinuu utuu ani Mordekaayi Yihuudicha isaa karra mootichaa dura taaʼu arguu na hin gammachiisu.”
14 And Zosara his wife and his friends said to him, Let there be a gallows made for you of fifty cubits, and in the morning do you speak to the king, and let Mardochaeus be hanged on the gallows: but do you go in to the feast with the king, and be merry. And the saying pleased Aman, and the gallows was prepared.
Niitiin isaa Zeresh fi michoonni isaa hundinuu, “Muka itti nama fannisan kan dhundhuma shantama ol dheeratu dhaabiitii akka Mordekaayi bor ganama irratti fannifamu mooticha gaafadhu. Ergasiis mooticha wajjin gara cidha sanaa dhaqii gammadi” jedhaniin. Yaadni kun Haamaanin gammachiise; innis muka sana dhaabe.
