< Esther 7 >

1 So the king and Haman came in, to banquet with Esther the queen.
Alò, wa a avèk Haman te vini pou bwè diven an avèk Esther, rèn nan.
2 Then said the king unto Esther, on the second day also, during the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, Queen Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what is thy request—unto the half of the kingdom—that it may be performed?
Konsa, wa a te di a Esther ankò nan dezyèm jou a pandan yo t ap bwè diven pa yo nan bankè a, “Se ki petisyon ou an, rèn Esther? Li va bay a ou menm. Se kisa ke w ap mande a? Menm jis rive mwatye wayòm nan, li va fèt.”
3 Then answered Esther the queen, and said, If I have found favour in thine eyes, O king, and if, unto the king, it seem good, let my life be granted me, as my petition, and my people, as my request;
Rèn Esther te reponn: “Si mwen te jwenn favè nan zye ou, O wa, e si se plezi a wa a, ban mwen lavi mwen kon petisyon mwen an, avèk pèp mwen an, se sa ke mwen mande.
4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain and to be caused to perish. If indeed, for bondmen and for bondwomen, we had been sold, I had held my peace, although the adversary could not have made good the damage to the king.
Paske nou te fin vann mwen menm avèk pèp mwen an, pou nou fin detwi, pou touye e anile nèt. Alò, si se te sèlman ke nou te vann kon esklav, gason kon fanm, mwen ta rete an silans, paske twoub la pa t ap merite ke m ta twouble wa a.”
5 Then spake King Ahasuerus, and said unto Esther the queen, —Who is he now, and where is he, whose heart is set to act thus?
Konsa, Wa Assuérus te mande rèn Esther, “Ki moun li ye e kibò li ye, ki ta pwopoze fè afè sila a?”
6 And Esther said, A man who is an adversary and enemy, this wicked Haman. And, Haman, was terrified, before the king and the queen.
Esther te di: “Yon oprimè avèk yon lènmi, se mechan Haman sila a!” Pou sa a, Haman te vin ranpli avèk laperèz devan wa a avèk rèn nan.
7 Now, the king, arising in his wrath from the banquet of wine, and going into the palace garden, Haman, stood to make request for his life from Esther the queen, for he saw that ruin, was determined against him, by the king.
Wa a nan kòlè li te leve kite bwè diven an, e te antre nan jaden palè a. Men Haman te rete pou mande Esther sekou pou lavi li, paske li te wè wa a te vin gen entansyon fè l move bagay.
8 When, the king, returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine, Haman, was lying prostrate upon the couch whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he, even dare to force the queen, while I am in the house? No sooner had the word gone forth out of the mouth of the king, than, the face of Haman, they had covered.
Alò, lè wa a te retounen sòti nan jaden palè a pou l antre nan plas kote yo t ap bwè diven an, Haman t ap tonbe sou sofa kote Esther te ye a. Konsa, wa a te di: “Èske li va menm vyole rèn nan pandan m la nan kay la?” Depi pawòl la te kite bouch a wa a, yo te kouvri figi a Haman.
9 Then said Harbonah—one of the eunuchs before the king—Yea lo! the gallows that Haman made ready for Mordecai, who had spoken well for the king, is standing in Haman’s house, of a height of fifty cubits. Then said the king, Hang him thereon.
Alò Harbona, youn nan enik yo devan wa a te di: “Gade byen, anverite, men wo etaj senkant koude nan wotè ki kanpe kote kay Haman an, ke li te fè pou Mardochée ki te pale byen pou wa a!” Epi wa a te di: “Pann li sou li!”
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai, —and, the wrath of the king, was appeased.
Konsa, yo te pann Haman sou wo etaj ke li te prepare pou Mardochée a e kòlè a wa a te vin bese.
