Esther 7
1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
Enti ɔhene no ne Haman kɔɔ Ɔhemmea Ɛster aponto no ase.
2 The king said again to Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, "What is your petition, queen Esther? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed."
Wɔrenonom nsa saa da no, ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ no bio se, “Ɔhemmea Ɛster, kyerɛ me nea wopɛ. Wʼabisade ne dɛn? Sɛ ɛyɛ ahemman yi mu fa koraa a, mede bɛma wo!”
3 Then Esther the queen answered, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
Ɔhemmea Ɛster buae se, “Sɛ Ɔhempɔn ani gye me ho, na ɔpɛ sɛ ɔyɛ mʼabisade ma me a, mʼadesrɛ ara ne sɛ, obegyaa me nkwa ne me manfo nkwa mu ama yɛn.
4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondservants and bondmaids, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king's loss."
Efisɛ wɔatɔn me ne me manfo ama nnipa a wobekunkum yɛn, atɔre yɛn ase. Sɛ wɔtɔn yɛn sɛ nkoa kɛkɛ mpo a, anka mɛtena dinn, efisɛ ɛno de, ɛyɛ asɛm ketewa bi a ɛho nhia sɛ wɔde kɔdan ɔhene.”
5 Then King Achashyerosh said to Esther the queen, "Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?"
Ɔhene Ahasweros bisae se, “Hena na ɔbɛyɛ saa? Na hena na obetumi de ne nsa aka wo?”
6 Esther said, "An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman." Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
Ɛster buae se, “Saa omumɔyɛfo ne ɔtamfo yi ne onimguasefo Haman.” Ehu maa Haman ho popoo wɔ ɔhene ne ɔhemmea no anim.
7 The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.
Ɔhene no de abufuw huruw gyinaa ne nan so, na ɔkɔɔ ahemfi hɔ turo mu. Na Haman kaa hɔ, guan toaa Ɔhemmea Ɛster sɛ ɔnsrɛ ne nkwa mma no, efisɛ na onim sɛ nʼawie adu.
8 Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he even assault the queen in front of me in the house?" As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
Ɔtew hwee Ɔhemmea Ɛster mpa a ɔrehome wɔ so no so. Ɛhɔ ara na ɔhene no nso fii ahemfi no turo mu hɔ bae. Ɔhene no bobɔɔ mu se, “Hwɛ ɔrebɛboro ɔhemmea yi bere a ɔwɔ me nkyɛn wɔ fie ha nso?” Ɔhene no kasa wiee ara pɛ, nʼasomfo no kataa Haman anim a ɛkyerɛ sɛ, nʼawie adu.
9 Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king said, "Look, the gallows seventy-three feet eight inches high, which Haman has made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing at Haman's house." The king said, "Hang him on it."
Na Harbona a ɔyɛ ɔhene no piamfo no mu baako kae se, “Haman asi dua a ne sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum wɔ ɔno ara nʼadiwo. Na nʼadwene ne sɛ, ɔbɛsɛn Mordekai a ogyee ɔhene nkwa no wɔ so.” Afei, ɔhene no kae se, “Monsɛn Haman wɔ so.”
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.
Enti wɔsɛn Haman wɔ dua no a osi maa Mordekai no so, maa ɔhene no bo dwoe.
