< Esther 6 >
1 On that night the sleep of the king has fled away, and he commands to bring in the scroll of memorials of the chronicles, and they are read before the king,
Fia Ahasuerus mete ŋu dɔ alɔ̃ le gbe ma gbe ƒe zã me o, eya ta wòna wotsɔ fiasã la ƒe nyadzɔdzɔgbalẽ, si ku ɖe eƒe dziɖuɖu ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo ŋuti vɛ be woaxlẽ nɛ.
2 and it is found written that Mordecai had declared concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs of the king, of the keepers of the threshold, who sought to put forth a hand on King Ahasuerus.
Woke ɖe eŋu le agbalẽ la me be, Bigtan kple Teres, fia la ƒe nyɔnuwo dzi kpɔlawo kple agbonudzɔla eve wowɔ ɖoɖo ɖe Fia Zerzes wuwu ŋuti, eye Mordekai na fia la nya.
3 And the king says, “What honor and greatness has been done to Mordecai for this?” And the servants of the king, his ministers, say, “Nothing has been done with him.”
Fia la bia eƒe aɖaŋudelawo be, “Nu ka tututue míena Mordekai le nyanyanana sia ta?” Eƒe aɖaŋudelawo ɖo eŋu be, “Womena nanekee o!”
4 And the king says, “Who [is] in the court?” And Haman has come into the outer court of the house of the king, to say to the king to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him.
Fia la bia be, “Ame kae le xɔxɔnu afi ma?” Eva eme be Haman va ɖo afi ma teti be yeabia fia la be wòaɖe mɔ na ye yeade ka ve na Mordekai ɖe kadeveti si tum yenɔ la ŋu.
5 And the servants of the king say to him, “Behold, Haman is standing in the court”; and the king says, “Let him come in.”
Aɖaŋudelawo ɖo eŋu na fia la be, “Ame si le afi ma lae nye Haman.” Fia la ɖe gbe be, “Miyɔe ɖa.”
6 And Haman comes in, and the king says to him, “What should [I] do with the man in whose honor the king has delighted?” And Haman says in his heart, “To whom does the king delight to do honor more than myself?”
Ale Haman yi fia la gbɔ, eye fia la biae be, “Nu ka woawɔ atsɔ ade bubu ame aɖe si ŋu mekpɔ ŋudzedze tɔxɛ le la?” Tete Haman bu le eƒe ta me be, “Ame ka gɔ̃ ŋu fia la ade bubui ne menye nye ko oa?”
7 And Haman says to the king, “The man in whose honor the king has delighted,
Ale wòɖo eŋu na fia la be, “Hena ame si ƒe nu do dzidzɔ na fia la, eye wòdi be yeade bubu eŋu la,
8 let them bring in royal clothing that the king has put on himself, and a horse on which the king has ridden, and that the royal crown be put on his head,
fia la nana woatsɔ fiawu ado nɛ, wòana wòado fia la ƒe sɔ, woaɖɔ fia la ƒe fiakuku nɛ.
9 and to give the clothing and the horse into the hand of a man of the heads of the king, the chiefs, and they have clothed the man in whose honor the king has delighted, and caused him to ride on the horse in a broad place of the city, and called before him: Thus it is done to the man in whose honor the king has delighted.”
Ekema fia la nana woatsɔ fiawu la kple fia la ƒe sɔ la ade asi na fia la ƒe bubume ɖeka. Fia la nana wodoa fiawu la na ame si ƒe nu do dzidzɔ nɛ wòbe yeade bubu eŋu, ekema bubume la anɔ sɔ la ŋgɔ, woato dua ƒe ablɔwo dzi, eye bubume la nanɔ gbeƒã ɖem le eŋgɔ be, ‘Esiae nye nu si wowɔ na ŋutsu si ƒe nu nyo fia la ŋu, eye wòde bubu eŋu.’”
10 And the king says to Haman, “Hurry, take the clothing and the horse, as you have spoken, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting in the gate of the king; there does not fall a thing of all that you have spoken.”
Fia la gblɔ na Haman be, “Enyo ŋutɔ! Ɖe abla nàtsɔ fiawu la kple nye sɔ la, eye nàwɔ nu si nègblɔ la tututu na Mordekai, Yudatɔ, ame si nɔa agboa nu. Wɔ nu sia abe ale si nègblɔe ene la pɛpɛpɛ!”
11 And Haman takes the clothing, and the horse, and clothed Mordecai, and causes him to ride in a broad place of the city, and calls before him, “Thus it is done to the man in whose glory the king has delighted.”
Ale Haman tsɔ fiawu la do na Mordekai, ena wòdo fia la ŋutɔ ƒe sɔ, eye wòkplɔe to dua ƒe ablɔwo dzi, nɔ ɣli dom le eŋgɔ be, “Esiae nye nu si wowɔ na ŋutsu si ƒe nu nyo fia la ŋu, eye wòde bubu eŋu!”
12 And Mordecai turns back to the gate of the king, and Haman has been hurried to his house mourning, and with covered head,
Le esia megbe la, Mordekai trɔ yi eƒe dɔwɔƒe, ke Haman ɖe abla yi aƒe me kple nuxaxa blibo.
13 and Haman recounts to his wife Zeresh, and to all his friends, all that has met him, and his wise men and his wife Zeresh say to him, “If Mordecai [is] of the seed of the Jews, before whom you have begun to fall, you are not able for him, but certainly fall before him.”
Egblɔ nu siwo katã va dzɔ ɖe edzi la na srɔ̃a, Zeres kple exɔlɔ̃wo. Eƒe aɖaŋuɖolawo kple srɔ̃a wogblɔ nɛ be, “Zi ale si Mordekai, ame si dzi wò anyidzedze dze egɔme tsoe nye Yudatɔ la, màte ŋu anɔ te ɖe enu o; vavã àtsrɔ̃ godoo!”
14 They are yet speaking with him, and eunuchs of the king have come, and hurry to bring in Haman to the banquet that Esther has made.
Esime woganɔ ŋugble dem tso nya sia ŋu kplii la, fia la ƒe ame dɔdɔawo va kplɔ Haman yi Ester ƒe kplɔ̃ si wòɖo la ŋu.
