< Esther 6 >

1 In the night that it fled [the] sleep of the king and he said to bring [the] book of the reminders [the] words of the days and they were read aloud before the king.
Pada malam itu juga raja tidak dapat tidur. Maka bertitahlah baginda membawa kitab pencatatan sejarah, lalu dibacakan di hadapan raja.
2 And it was found recorded that he had told Mordecai on Bigthana and Teresh two of [the] eunuchs of the king from [the] guards of the threshold who they had sought to stretch out a hand on the king Ahasuerus.
Dan di situ didapati suatu catatan tentang Mordekhai, yang pernah memberitahukan bahwa Bigtan dan Teresh, dua orang sida-sida raja yang termasuk golongan penjaga pintu, telah berikhtiar membunuh raja Ahasyweros.
3 And he said the king what? has it been done honor and greatness for Mordecai on this and they said [the] young men of the king servants his not it was done with him anything.
Maka bertanyalah raja: "Kehormatan dan kebesaran apakah yang dianugerahkan kepada Mordekhai oleh sebab perkara itu?" Jawab para biduanda raja yang bertugas pada baginda: "Kepadanya tidak dianugerahkan suatu apapun."
4 And he said the king who? [is] in the court and Haman he had come to [the] court of [the] house of the king outer to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows which he had prepared for him.
Maka bertanyalah raja: "Siapakah itu yang ada di pelataran?" Pada waktu itu Haman baru datang di pelataran luar istana raja untuk memberitahukan kepada baginda, bahwa ia hendak menyulakan Mordekhai pada tiang yang sudah didirikannya untuk dia.
5 And they said [the] servants of the king to him there! Haman [is] standing in the court and he said the king let him come.
Lalu jawab para biduanda raja kepada baginda: "Itulah Haman, ia berdiri di pelataran." Maka titah raja: "Suruhlah dia masuk."
6 And he came Haman and he said to him the king what? [is] to do for the man whom the king he delights in honor his and he said Haman in heart his to whom? will he delight the king to do honor excess more than me.
Setelah Haman masuk, bertanyalah raja kepadanya: "Apakah yang harus dilakukan kepada orang yang raja berkenan menghormatinya?" Kata Haman dalam hatinya: "Kepada siapa lagi raja berkenan menganugerahkan kehormatan lebih dari kepadaku?"
7 And he said Haman to the king a man whom the king he delights in honor his.
Oleh karena itu jawab Haman kepada raja: "Mengenai orang yang raja berkenan menghormatinya,
8 Let people bring clothing of royalty which he has worn on him the king and a horse which he has ridden on it the king and which it has been put a head-dress of royalty on head its.
hendaklah diambil pakaian kerajaan yang biasa dipakai oleh raja sendiri, dan lagi kuda yang biasa dikendarai oleh raja sendiri dan yang diberi mahkota kerajaan di kepalanya,
9 And let them put the clothing and the horse on [the] hand of a man one of [the] officials of the king the nobles and they will clothe the man whom the king he delights in honor his and they will make ride him on the horse in [the] open place of the city and they will proclaim before him thus it will be done for the man whom the king he delights in honor his.
dan hendaklah diserahkan pakaian dan kuda itu ke tangan seorang dari antara para pembesar raja, orang-orang bangsawan, lalu hendaklah pakaian itu dikenakan kepada orang yang raja berkenan menghormatinya, kemudian hendaklah ia diarak dengan mengendarai kuda itu melalui lapangan kota sedang orang berseru-seru di depannya: Beginilah dilakukan kepada orang yang raja berkenan menghormatinya!"
10 And he said the king to Haman hurry take the clothing and the horse just as you have said and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits at [the] gate of the king may not you make fall a word from all that you have said.
Maka titah raja kepada Haman: "Segera ambillah pakaian dan kuda itu, seperti yang kaukatakan itu, dan lakukanlah demikian kepada Mordekhai, orang Yahudi, yang duduk di pintu gerbang istana. Sepatah katapun janganlah kaulalaikan dari pada segala yang kaukatakan itu."
11 And he took Haman the clothing and the horse and he clothed Mordecai and he made ride him in [the] open place of the city and he proclaimed before him thus it will be done for the man whom the king he delights in honor his.
Lalu Haman mengambil pakaian dan kuda itu, dan dikenakannya pakaian itu kepada Mordekhai, kemudian diaraknya Mordekhai melalui lapangan kota itu, sedang ia menyerukan di depannya: "Beginilah dilakukan kepada orang yang raja berkenan menghormatinya."
12 And he returned Mordecai to [the] gate of the king and Haman he hurried himself to house his mourning and covered of head.
Kemudian kembalilah Mordekhai ke pintu gerbang istana raja, tetapi Haman bergesa-gesa pulang ke rumahnya dengan sedih hatinya dan berselubung kepalanya.
13 And he recounted Haman to Zeresh wife his and to all friends his all that it had happened to him and they said to him wise [men] his and Zeresh wife his if [is] one of [the] offspring of the Jews Mordecai whom you have begun to fall before him not you will prevail to him for certainly you will fall before him.
Dan Haman menceritakan kepada Zeresh, isterinya, dan kepada semua sahabatnya apa yang dialaminya. Maka kata para orang arif bijaksana dan Zeresh, isterinya, kepadanya: "Jikalau Mordekhai, yang di depannya engkau sudah mulai jatuh, adalah keturunan Yahudi, maka engkau tidak akan sanggup melawan dia, malahan engkau akan jatuh benar-benar di depannya."
14 Still they [were] speaking with him and [the] eunuchs of the king they arrived and they made haste to bring Haman to the feast which she had prepared Esther.
Selagi mereka itu bercakap-cakap dengan dia, datanglah sida-sida raja, lalu mengantarkan Haman dengan segera ke perjamuan yang diadakan oleh Ester.
