Esther 7
1 So the king and Aman went in to drink with the queen.
I tako doðe car i Aman na objed carici Jestiri.
2 And the king said to Esther at the banquet on the second day, What is it, queen Esther? and what [is] your request, and what [is] your petition? and it shall be [done] for you, to the half of my kingdom.
I reèe car Jestiri opet drugi dan napivši se vina: šta želiš, carice Jestiro? daæe ti se; i šta moliš? ako je i do polovine carstva, biæe.
3 And she answered and said, If I have found favor in the sight of the king, let [my] life be granted to my petition, and my people to my request.
Tada odgovori carica Jestira i reèe: ako sam našla milost pred tobom, care, i ako je caru ugodno, neka mi se pokloni život moj na moju želju i narod moj na moju molbu.
4 For both I and my people are sold for destruction, and pillage, and slavery; [both] we and our children for bondmen and bondwomen: and I consented not to it, for the [is] not worthy of the king's palace.
Jer smo prodani ja i moj narod da nas potru, pobiju i istrijebe. Da smo prodani da budemo sluge i sluškinje, muèala bih, premda neprijatelj ne bi mogao naknaditi štete caru.
5 And the king said, Who [is] this that has dared to do this thing?
A car Asvir progovori i reèe carici Jestiri: ko je taj? i gdje je taj koji se usudio tako èiniti?
6 And Esther said, the adversary [is] Aman, this wicked man. Then Aman was troubled before the king and the queen.
A Jestira reèe: protivnik i neprijatelj ovaj je zlikovac Aman. A Aman se uplaši od cara i od carice.
7 And the king rose up from the banquet to go into the garden: and Aman began to entreat the queen; for he saw that he was in an evil case.
Tada car gnjevan usta od vina i otide u vrt kod dvora, a Aman osta da moli za život svoj caricu Jestiru, jer vidje da je car naumio zlo po nj.
8 And the king returned from the garden; and Aman had fallen upon the bed, intreating the queen. And the king said, Will you even force [my] wife in my house? And when Aman heard it, he changed countenance.
Potom se car vrati iz vrta dvorskoga u kuæu gdje bješe pio vino; a Aman bješe pao na odar gdje sjeðaše Jestira. I car reèe: eda li æe i caricu osramotiti kod mene u kuæi? Èim ta rijeè izide iz usta carevijeh, pokriše lice Amanu.
9 And Bugathan, one of the chamberlains, said to the king, Behold, Aman has also prepared a gallows for Mardochaeus, who spoke concerning the king, and a gallows of fifty cubits high has been set up in the premises of Aman. And the king said, Let him be hanged thereon.
I Arvona, jedan od dvorana carevijeh, reèe: evo i vješala što je naèinio Aman za Mardoheja koji je govorio dobro po cara stoje kod kuæe Amanove, visoka pedeset lakata. I reèe car: objesite ga na njih.
10 So Aman was hanged on the gallows that had been prepared for Mardochaeus: and then the king's wrath was appeased.
I tako objesiše Amana na vješala koja bješe pripravio Mardoheju. I gnjev carev utiša se.
