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.
Quella notte il re, non potendo prender sonno, ordinò che gli si portasse il libro delle Memorie, le Cronache; e ne fu fatta la lettura in presenza del re.
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.
Vi si trovò scritto che Mardocheo avea denunziato Bigthan e Teresh, i due eunuchi del re di fra i guardiani della soglia, i quali avean cercato d’attentare alla vita del re Assuero.
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.
Allora il re chiese: “Qual onore e qual distinzione s’è dato a Mardocheo per questo?” Quelli che servivano il re risposero: “Non s’è fatto nulla per lui”.
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.
E il re disse: “Chi è nel cortile?” Or Haman era venuto nel cortile esterno della casa del re, per dire al re di fare appiccare Mardocheo alla forca ch’egli avea preparata per lui.
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.
I servi del re gli risposero: “Ecco, c’è Haman nel cortile”. E il re: “Fatelo entrare”.
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.
Haman entrò, e il re gli disse: “Che bisogna fare a un uomo che il re voglia onorare?” Haman disse in cuor suo: “Chi altri vorrebbe il re onorare, se non me?”
7 And he said Haman to the king a man whom the king he delights in honor his.
E Haman rispose al re: “All’uomo che il re voglia onorare?
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.
Si prenda la veste reale che il re suol portare, e il cavallo che il re suol montare, e sulla cui testa è posta una corona reale;
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.
si consegni la veste e il cavallo a uno dei principi più nobili del re; si rivesta di quella veste l’uomo che il re vuole onorare, lo si faccia percorrere a cavallo le vie della città, e si gridi davanti a lui: Così si fa all’uomo che il re vuole onorare!”
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.
Allora il re disse a Haman: “Fa’ presto, e prendi la veste e il cavallo, come hai detto, e fa’ a quel modo a Mardocheo, a quel Giudeo che siede alla porta del re; e non tralasciar nulla di quello che hai detto”.
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.
E Haman prese la veste e il cavallo, rivestì della veste Mardocheo lo fece percorrere a cavallo le vie della città e gridava davanti a lui: “Così si fa all’uomo che il re vuole onorare!”.
12 And he returned Mordecai to [the] gate of the king and Haman he hurried himself to house his mourning and covered of head.
Poi Mardocheo tornò alla porta del re, ma Haman s’affrettò d’andare a casa sua, tutto addolorato, e col capo coperto.
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.
E Haman raccontò a Zeresh sua moglie e a tutti i suoi amici tutto quello che gli era accaduto. E i suoi savi e Zeresh sua moglie gli dissero: “Se Mardocheo davanti al quale tu hai cominciato a cadere è della stirpe de’ Giudei, tu non potrai nulla contro di lui e cadrai completamente davanti ad esso”.
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.
Mentr’essi parlavano ancora con lui, giunsero gli eunuchi del re, i quali s’affrettarono a condurre Haman al convito che Ester aveva preparato.
