< Esther 5 >
1 And it comes to pass on the third day, that Esther puts on royalty, and stands in the inner-court of the house of the king in front of the house of the king, and the king is sitting on his royal throne, in the royal-house, opposite the opening of the house,
Ke len in lalo se aktolu, Esther el nokomang nuknuk in kasra lal ac som ac tu inkalkal se oan loac ke lohm sel tokosra, ac ngetang nu ke infukil lun tron. Tokosra el muta infukil sac fin tron lal, ac ngetang nu ke nien utyak ah.
2 and it comes to pass, at the king’s seeing Esther the queen standing in the court, she has received grace in his eyes, and the king holds out to Esther the golden scepter that [is] in his hand, and Esther draws near, and touches the top of the scepter.
Ke pacl se tokosra el liyalak Kasra Esther lah el tu lik ah, insial insewowo sel, ac el asroeang scepter gold soko ah nu sel. Na Kasra Esther el utyak ac kahlya mutun scepter gold soko ah.
3 And the king says to her, “What do you [want], Esther, O queen? And what [is] your request? To the half of the kingdom—and it is given to you.”
Tokosra el siyuk, “Kasra Esther, mea kom lungse— Fahk nu sik lah mea kom enenu, na ac fah itukot nu sum, finne tafu tokosrai luk.”
4 And Esther says, “If to the king [it be] good, the king comes in, and Haman, today, to the banquet that I have made for him”;
Esther el topuk ac fahk, “Fin wo sin tokosra, nga kena suli tokosra ac Haman nu ke sie kufwa nga akoo nu suwos oyeku.”
5 and the king says, “Hurry Haman—to do the word of Esther”; and the king comes in, and Haman, to the banquet that Esther has made.
Na tokosra el sapla nu yorol Haman elan sulaklak tuku, eltal in som fal nu ke solsol lal Esther. Ouinge tokosra ac Haman som nu ke kufwa se Esther el akoela nu selos.
6 And the king says to Esther, during the banquet of wine, “What [is] your petition? And it is given to you; and what [is] your request? To the half of the kingdom—and it is done.”
Ke pacl se eltal nim wain, tokosra el siyuk sel Esther, “Fahk nu sik ma kom lungse, ac nga ac fah sot nu sum. Kom finne siyuk ke tafu tokosrai luk, ac fah itukot nu sum.”
7 And Esther answers and says, “My petition and my request [is]:
Esther el topuk,
8 if I have found grace in the eyes of the king, and if to the king [it be] good, to give my petition, and to perform my request, the king comes, and Haman, to the banquet that I make for them, and tomorrow I do according to the word of the king.”
“Fin wo sin Tokosra, ac Tokosra fin insewowo in lohng mwe siyuk luk, nga kena tuh Tokosra ac Haman in tuku nu ke sie pac kufwa nga akoo nu suwos lutu. In pacl sacn nga ac fah fahk nu sin Tokosra ma nga enenu.”
9 And Haman goes forth on that day rejoicing and glad in heart, and at Haman’s seeing Mordecai in the gate of the king, and he has not risen nor moved for him, then is Haman full of fury against Mordecai.
Ke Haman el tuyak liki kufwa uh, el arulana engan ac insewowo. Tusruktu el liyalak Mordecai ke nien utyak nu ke inkul sin tokosra, ac ke Mordecai el tiana tuyak ku akkalemye sunakinyal ke el alukella, Haman el foloyak sel.
10 And Haman forces himself, and comes into his house, and sends, and brings in his friends, and his wife Zeresh,
Tusruktu el tiana akkalemye toasr lal, ac el folokla nu lohm sel. Na el pangoneni mwet kawuk lal nu in lohm sel, ac solalma Zeresh, mutan kial, elan tuku welulos.
11 and Haman recounts to them the glory of his wealth, and the abundance of his sons, and all that with which the king made him great, and with which he lifted him up above the heads and servants of the king.
El konkin nu selos ke lupan kasrup lal, pusiyen wen natul, ac ke tokosra el tuh kilukunulak nu ke sie kunokon fulat, ac ke arulana yohk sripal liki leum saya lun tokosra.
12 And Haman says, “Indeed, Esther the queen brought none in with the king, to the feast that she made, except myself, and also for tomorrow I am called to her, with the king,
Haman el tafwela mu, “Sayen ma inge, Kasra Esther el tuh akoo sie kufwa, tia nu sin kutena mwet, a nu sik ac tokosra mukena, na el sifilpa suli kut nu lutu.
13 and all this is not profitable to me, during all the time that I am seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting in the gate of the king.”
Tusruktu ma inge nukewa ma pilasr sik ke nga srakna liyel Mordecai, mwet Jew sac, muta ke nien utyak nu inkul fulat sin tokosra.”
14 And his wife Zeresh says to him, and all his friends, “Let them prepare a tree, in height fifty cubits, and in the morning speak to the king, and they hang Mordecai on it, and go in with the king to the banquet rejoicing”; and the thing is good before Haman, and he prepares the tree.
Ke ma inge, mutan kial ac mwet kawuk lal elos fahk nu sel, “Efu kom ku tia sap in musaiyukla sie nien loksak, ke fit itngoul limekosr fulata— Lututang kom ku in siyuk sel tokosra elan sapkin tuh Mordecai elan sripsripyak kac, na kom ac engan ac som nu ke kufwa ah.” Haman el eis mu nunak na wowo se, ouinge el sapkin in musala nien loksak se.
