Esther 6
1 On that night, the king couldn't sleep. He commanded the book of records of the chronicles to be brought, and they were read to the king.
Ону ноћ не могаше цар спавати, и заповеди те му донесоше књигу од знаменитих догађаја, дневнике, те је читаше цару.
2 It was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs, who were doorkeepers, who had tried to lay hands on the King Achashyerosh.
И нађе се записано како је Мардохеј проказао за Вихтана и Тереса, два дворанина, који чуваху стражу на прагу, да гледају да дигну руке на цара Асвира.
3 The king said, "What honor and dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?" Then the king's servants who attended him said, "Nothing has been done for him."
Тада рече цар: Каква је част и како је добро учињено Мардохеју за то? А момци цареви, слуге његове, рекоше: Није му учињено ништа.
4 The king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king's house, to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
А цар рече: Ко је у трему? А Аман беше дошао у спољашњи трем двора царевог да каже цару да се обеси Мардохеј на вешала која му је приправио.
5 The king's servants said to him, "Look, Haman stands in the court." The king said, "Let him come in."
А момци цареви рекоше му: Гле, Аман стоји у трему. А цар рече: Нека дође.
6 So Haman came in. The king said to him, "What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honor?" Now Haman said in his heart, "Who would the king delight to honor more than myself?"
И Аман дође, а цар му рече: Шта треба учинити човеку ког цар хоће да прослави? А Аман рече у себи: Кога би цар хтео прославити ако не мене?
7 Haman said to the king, "For the man whom the king delights to honor,
И рече Аман цару: Кога цар хоће да прослави,
8 let royal clothing be brought which the king uses to wear, and the horse that the king rides on, and on the head of which a crown royal is set.
Треба донети царско одело које цар носи, и довести коња на коме цар јаше, и метнути му на главу венац царски;
9 And let the clothing and the horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble officials, and let him clothe the man whom the king delights to honor with them, and have him ride on horseback through the city square, and proclaim before him, 'Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor.'"
И одело и коња треба дати коме између највећих кнезова царевих да обуку човека оног ког цар хоће да прослави, па да га проведу на коњу по улицама градским и вичу пред њим: Овако бива човеку кога цар хоће да прослави.
10 Then the king said to Haman, "Hurry and take the clothing and the horse, as you have said, and do this for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the King's Gate. Let nothing fail of all that you have spoken."
Тада рече цар Аману: Брже узми одело и коња као што рече, и учини тако Мардохеју, Јудејцу који седи на вратима царевим; немој изоставити ништа што си рекао.
11 Then Haman took the clothing and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and had him ride through the city square, and proclaimed before him, "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor."
И узе Аман одело и коња, и обуче Мардохеја и проведе га на коњу по улицама градским вичући пред њим: Овако бива човеку кога цар хоће да прослави.
12 Mordecai came back to the King's Gate, but Haman hurried to his house, mourning and having his head covered.
Потом се врати Мардохеј на врата царева, а Аман брже отиде кући својој жалостан и покривене главе.
13 Haman recounted to Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him. Then his wise men and Zeresh his wife said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him, but you will surely fall before him."
И приповеди Аман Сереси, жени својој и свим пријатељима својим све што му се догоди. Тада му рекоше мудраци његови и Сереса жена његова: Кад је од јудејског семена Мардохеј пред којим си почео падати, нећеш му одолети, него ћеш пасти пред њим.
14 While they were yet talking with him, the king's eunuchs came, and hurried to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
И док они још говораху с њим, дођоше дворани цареви и брже одведоше Амана на обед који зготови Јестира.
