< Esther 7 >

1 And he went the king and Haman to drink with Esther the queen.
Kralj i Haman dođoše na gozbu kraljici Esteri.
2 And he said the king to Esther also on the day second at [the] feast of wine what? [is] petition your O Esther the queen so it may be given to you and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom and it may be done.
I toga drugoga dana, dok se pilo vino, reče kralj Esteri: "Koja ti je molba, kraljice Estero? Bit će ti udovoljena! Koja je tvoja želja? Ako je i pola kraljevstva, bit će ti!"
3 And she answered Esther the queen and she said if I have found favor in view your O king and if [is] on the king good let it be given to me life my for petition my and people my for request my.
Kraljica Estera odgovori: "Ako sam, kralju, našla milost u tvojim očima i ako ti je s voljom, neka mi se u ime molbe pokloni život, a u ime želje moj narod!
4 For we have been sold I and people my to annihilate to kill and to destroy and if to male slaves and to female slaves we had been sold I kept quiet for not the distress [is] equal for [the] injury of the king.
Jer smo ja i narod moj predani za zator, klanje, uništenje. Da smo predani u roblje, šutjela bih jer nevolja ne bi bila štetna po kralja."
5 And he said the king Ahasuerus and he said to Esther the queen who? [is] he this and where? this [is] he whom it has filled him heart his to do thus.
Ali kralj Ahasver upade kraljici Esteri u riječ pa je upita: "Tko je taj? Gdje je taj koji je namislio takvo što učiniti?" Estera tada odgovori: "Progonitelj i neprijatelj jest Haman, ovaj zlikovac!"
6 And she said Esther a man an opponent and an enemy Haman evil this and Haman he was terrified from to before the king and the queen.
Haman se zaprepasti pred kraljem i kraljicom.
7 And the king he rose up in rage his from [the] feast of wine into [the] garden of the palace and Haman he remained to seek on life his from Esther the queen for he saw that it was determined against him harm from with the king.
Kralj, gnjevan, ostavi vino te ode u vrt palače. Haman osta uz kraljicu da je moli za svoj život, jer je uvidio da je njegova nesreća pred kraljem gotova.
8 And the king he returned from [the] garden of the palace to [the] house of - [the] feast of wine and Haman [was] falling on the couch which Esther [was] on it and he said the king ¿ also to violate the queen with me in the house the word it came out from [the] mouth of the king and [the] face of Haman people covered.
Kralj se vrati iz vrta u dvoranu gdje se pilo vino. Dotle Haman bijaše pao na počivaljku na kojoj se nalazila Estera. "Pokušavaš još i nasilje nad kraljicom, i to u mome vlastitom domu?" - povika kralj. Tek što su te riječi izletjele iz kraljevih usta, pokriše lice Hamanu.
9 And he said Harbona one of the eunuchs before the king also there! the gallows which he has made Haman for Mordecai who he spoke good on the king [is] standing at [the] house of Haman high fifty cubit[s] and he said the king hang him on it.
Tada kaza Harbona, jedan od dvorana koji su stajali u službi kraljevoj: "Eno i vješala što ih je Haman pripravio za Mordokaja koji je govorio u korist kraljevu. Nalaze se kraj Hamanove kuće i visoka su pedeset lakata." Kralj zapovjedi: "Objesite ga na njih!"
10 And they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai and [the] rage of the king it subsided.
Hamana objesiše na vješala koja bijaše pripravio Mordokaju, i kraljeva se srdžba utiša.
