< Esther 5 >

1 And it was - on the day third and she put on Esther royalty and she stood in [the] court of [the] house of the king inner before [the] house of the king and the king [was] sitting on [the] throne of royalty his in [the] house of royalty before [the] entrance of the house.
Og det skete paa den tredje Dag, da iførte Esther sig kongelige Klæder og stod i Kongens Hus's inderste Forgaard, lige for Kongens Hus, og Kongen sad paa sin kongelige Trone i det kongelige Hus, lige for Døren paa Huset.
2 And it was when saw the king Esther the queen standing in the court she bore favor in view his and he extended the king to Esther [the] scepter of gold which [was] in hand his and she drew near Esther and she touched [the] top of the scepter.
Og det skete, der Kongen saa Esther, Dronningen, staa i Forgaarden, da fik hun Naade for hans Øjne, og Kongen udrakte Guldspiret, som var i hans Haand, imod Esther; da kom Esther frem og rørte ved Spidsen paa Spiret.
3 And he said to her the king what? [is] to you O Esther the queen and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom so it may be given to you.
Da sagde Kongen til hende: Hvad fattes dig, Dronning Esther, og hvad, er din Begæring? var det indtil Halvdelen af mit Rige, da skulde det gives dig.
4 And she said Esther if [is] on the king good let him come the king and Haman this day to the feast which I have made for him.
Og Esther sagde: Dersom det synes Kongen godt, saa komme Kongen og Haman i Dag til det Gæstebud, som jeg har beredet for ham.
5 And he said the king bring quickly Haman to do [the] word of Esther and he came the king and Haman to the feast which she had made Esther.
Og Kongen sagde: Lader Haman skynde sig at gøre efter Esthers Ord; og Kongen og Haman kom til Gæstebudet, som Esther havde beredet.
6 And he said the king to Esther at [the] feast of wine what? [is] petition your sp it may be given to you and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom and it may be done.
Da sagde Kongen til Esther under Gæstebudet ved Vinen: Hvad er din Bøn? og det skal gives dig; og hvad er din Begæring? var det indtil Halvdelen af Riget, da skal det ske.
7 And she answered Esther and she said petition my and request my.
Da svarede Esther og sagde: Min Bøn og min Begæring er:
8 If I have found favor in [the] eyes of the king and if [is] on the king good to grant petition my and to do request my let him come the king and Haman to the feast which I will make for them and tomorrow I will do according to [the] word of the king.
Dersom jeg har fundet Naade for Kongens Øjne, og dersom det synes Kongen godt at tilstaa mig min Bøn og at opfylde min Begæring, saa komme Kongen og Haman til det Gæstebud, som jeg vil tillave for dem; saa vil jeg gøre i Morgen efter Kongens Ord.
9 And he went out Haman on the day that joyful and good of heart and just as saw Haman Mordecai at [the] gate of the king and not he stood up and not he trembled from him and he was filled Haman towards Mordecai rage.
Da gik Haman samme Dag ud, glad og ved et godt Mod, men som Haman saa Mardokaj i Kongens Port, at han ikke stod op, ej heller rørte sig for ham, da blev Haman opfyldt med Vrede imod Mardokaj.
10 And he restrained himself Haman and he went to house his and he sent and he gathered friends his and Zeresh wife his.
Men Haman holdt sig, og han kom til sit Hus; og han sendte Bud og lod sine Venner og Seres, sin Hustru, hente.
11 And he recounted to them Haman [about] [the] splendor of wealth his and [the] multitude of sons his and [about] all that he had made great him the king and this: he had exalted him above the officials and [the] servants of the king.
Og Haman fortalte dem om sin Rigdoms Herlighed og om sine mange Sønner og om alt det, hvorved Kongen havde gjort ham stor og havde ophøjet ham over Fyrsterne og Kongens Tjenere.
12 And he said Haman also not she let come [anyone] Esther the queen with the king to the feast which she had prepared that except me and also for tomorrow I [am] invited by her with the king.
Og Haman sagde: Ogsaa Dronning Esther lod ingen komme med Kongen til det Gæstebud, som hun havde beredet, uden mig; og jeg er ogsaa indbuden af hende til i Morgen med Kongen.
13 And all this not it [is] adequate for me at any time when I [am] seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting at [the] gate of the king.
Men alt dette er mig ikke nok, al den Tid jeg ser Jøden Mardokaj sidde i Kongens Port.
14 And she said to him Zeresh wife his and all friends his let people make a gallows high fifty cubit[s] and in the morning - speak to the king so people may hang Mordecai on it and go with the king to the feast joyful and it was good the word before Haman and he made the gallows.
Da sagde Seres, hans Hustru, og alle hans Venner til ham: Lad dem lave et Træ til, halvtredsindstyve Alen højt, og sig i Morgen til Kongen, at man skal hænge Mardokaj derpaa, og gaa saa glad til Gæstebudet med Kongen; og dette Ord syntes Haman vel om, og han lod Træet lave til.
