Esther 5
1 And it came to pass, on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the house of the king, over against the house of the king, —and, the king, was sitting upon his royal seat, in the royal house, over against the opening of the house.
A I ke kolu o ka la, hookomo ae la o Esetera i ka lole alii, a ku aku la ma ka pahale iloko o ka hale o ke alii, ma ke alo o ka hale o ke alii. A e noho ana no ke alii ma kona nohoalii, ma ka hale alii, ma ke alo o ka pukapa o ka hale.
2 And it came to pass, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his eyes, —and the king held out to Esther, the golden sceptre which was in his hand, so Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.
A ike mai la ke alii ia Esetera, i ke alii wahine, e ku ana maloko o ka pahale. loaa ia ia ke alohaia mai e ia; a o mai la ke alii i ke kookooalii gula ma kona lima ia Esetera. Hookokoke aku la o Esetera, a hoopa aku la i ka welau o ke kookooalii.
3 Then said the king unto her, What aileth thee, Queen Esther? and what is thy request? Unto the half of the kingdom, shall it be given thee.
Alaila i mai ke alii ia ia, Heaha kau, e ke alii wahine, e Esetera, a keaha hoi kau mea e noi mai ai? E haawiia'ku no ia ia oe, ina paha o ka hapalua ia o ke aupuni.
4 Then said Esther, If, unto the king, it seem good, let the king with Haman come in this day, unto the banquet which I have prepared for him.
I aku la o Esetera, Ina he maikai ia i ke alii, e hele mai ke alii a me Hamana, i keia la, i ka ahainu a'u i hoomakaukau ai nona.
5 And the king said, Hasten ye Haman, to perform the word of Esther. So the king with Haman came in, unto the banquet which Esther had prepared,
Alaila, olelo aku ke alii, E hoolalelale ia Hamana, e hana oia i ka mea a Esetera i olelo ai. A hele mai la ke alii a me Hamana i ka ahainu a Esetera i hoomakaukau ai.
6 Then said the king unto Esther, during the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, that it may be granted thee?—and what is thy request—unto the half of the kingdom—that it may be performed?
Olelo mai la ke alii ia Esetera, ma ka ahainu waina, Heaha kau mea e noi mai ai? E haawiia no ia ia oe. A heaha hoi kau kauoha? Ina paha o ka hapalua ia o ke aupuni e hanaia no ia.
7 Then answered Esther, and said, —As touching my petition and my request,
Alaila, olelo aku la o Esetera, i aku la, Eia kuu mea e noi aku ai, a me ka'u kauoha hoi.
8 If I have found favour in the eyes of the king, and if, unto the king, it seem good, to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king with Haman come in unto the banquet which I will prepare for them, and, to-morrow, I will do according to the word of the king.
Ina i loaa ia'u ke alohaia mai e ke alii, a ina i lealea ke alii i ka haawi mai i ka'u mea e noi aku ai, a e hana hoi e like me ka'u kauoha ana, e hele mai ke alii a me Hamana i ka ahainu a'u e hoomakaukau ai no laua, a apopo e hana no wau e like me ka olelo a ke alii.
9 Then went Haman forth on that day, joyful and of a merry heart, —but, when Haman saw Mordecai in the gate of the king, that he rose not up nor moved because of him, then was Haman filled with wrath against Mordecai.
Puka aku la o Hamana iwaho ia la, me ka olioli, a me ka naau mama. A ike ae la oia ia Moredekai ma ka pukapa o ke alii, aole i ka iluna, aole i neenee aku nona, piha loa iho la ia i ka ukiuki ia Moredekai.
10 Nevertheless Haman restrained himself, and came into his own house, —and sent and brought in his friends, and Zeresh his wife;
Uumi iho la o Hamana i kona manao; a hoi aku la oia i kona wahi, alaila kii aku la oia i kona poe makamaka, a me Zeresa kana wahine.
11 and Haman recounted unto them the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, —and all the things wherein the king had promoted him to power, and how he had advanced him, above the rulers and the servants of the king.
A hai aku la o Hamana ia lakou i ka nani o kona waiwai, a i ka lehulehu o kana poe keiki, a i na mea a pau a ke alii i hookiekie ai ia ia, a me kona hoonoho ana ia ia maluna o na kuhina a me na kanaka o ke alii.
12 And Haman said, Moreover Esther the queen did bring in no one with the king into the banquet which she had prepared, saving myself, —yea moreover, even for to-morrow, I, am invited unto her, with the king.
Olelo aku la no hoi o Hamana, He oiaio, aole i hookomo o Esetera ke alii wahine, i kekahi mea e ae me ke alii i ka ahainu, ana i hoomakaukau ai, ia'u wale no. A ua kiina mai hoi au e hele io na la me ke alii i ka la apopo.
13 Yet, all this, sufficeth me not, —so long as, I, see Mordecai the Jew, sitting in the gate of the king.
Aka, he mea ole ia'u keia mau mea a pau, ia'u e ike aka ai ia Moredekai ka Iudaio, e noho ana ma ka pukapa o ke alii.
14 Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let them make ready a gallows, of the height of fifty cubits, and, in the morning, speak thou unto the king, that they hang Mordecai thereon, then go with the king into the banquet joyfully. And the thing seemed good before Haman, and he made ready the gallows.
Alaila, olelo mai la ia ia o Zeresa kana wahine, a me kona poe makamaka a pau, E hanaia he olokea, i kanalima kubita ke kiekia; a apopo, e olelo aku oe i ke alii, i liia o Moredekai maluna olaila. Alaila, e hele olioli oe i ka ahainu me ke alii. Ua maikai ia i ka manao o Hamana, a hana iho la oia i ke olokea.
