< Esther 6 >
1 That night the king was unable to sleep, so he [summoned] a servant [and] told [him] to bring the records of what had happened during all the time he had been king. [So the servant brought the records] and read some of them to the king.
Nang gabing iyon hindi makatulog ang hari. Inutusan niya ang kanyang mga lingkod na dalhin ang mga talaan ng mga pangyayari sa kanyang paghahari, at ito ay basahin nang malakas sa harap ng hari.
2 [The servant read about] Bigthana and Teresh, the two men who had guarded the entrance to the king’s rooms. He read the account of when Mordecai had found out that they planned to assassinate the king [and that he had told the king about it].
At natagpuang nakatala roon na isinumbong ni Mordecai ang tungkol kina Bigthana at Teres, dalawa sa mga opisyal ng hari na nagbabantay sa pasukan, na siyang sinubukang saktan si Haring Assuero.
3 The king asked [some of his servants], “What did we do to reward Mordecai or show that we appreciate what he did?” The servants replied, “We did not do anything for him.”
Nagtanong ang hari, “Anong karangalan at pagkilala ang nagawa kay Mordecai sa paggawa nito?” Pagkatapos sinabi ng kanyang mga kabataang lalaki, na lingkod niya, “Walang anumang nagawa para sa kanya.”
4 At that moment, Haman entered the outer courtyard of the palace. He wanted to talk to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows that he had [just] set up. The king [saw him and] said, “Who is [that out there] in the courtyard?”
At sinabi ng hari, “Sino ang nasa patyo?” Ngayon si Haman ay pumasok sa panlabas na patyo ng bahay ng hari upang kausapin siya tungkol sa pagbitay kay Mordecai sa bitayang inihanda niya para sa kanya.
5 His servants replied, “That is Haman standing there in the courtyard.” The king said, “Bring him in [here]!”
Sinabi ng mga lingkod ng hari sa kanya, “Si Haman ay nakatayo sa patyo.” Sinabi ng hari, “Hayaan siyang pumasok.”
6 When Haman came in, the king asked him, “What should I do for a man whom I want to honor?” Haman thought to himself, “(Whom would the king like to honor more than me?/I think there is no one whom the king would like to honor more than me!)” [RHQ]
Nang pumasok si Haman, sinabi ng hari sa kanya, “Anong dapat gawin sa lalaki na kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari?” Ngayon sinabi ni Haman sa kanyang puso, “Sino ang kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari na higit kaysa sa akin?”
7 So he replied to the king, “If there is someone you wish to honor,
Sinabi ni Haman sa hari, “Sa lalaki na kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari,
8 you should [tell your servants to] bring him one of the robes you wear [you to show that you are] the king. Also tell them to bring one of the horses you have ridden. Tell them to put a fancy headdress on the horse’s head to show that it belongs to you, the king.
hayaang dalhin ang mga maharalikang balabal, mga balabal na isinuot ng hari, at isang kabayong sinakyan ng hari at sa ulo nito ay ang sagisag ng hari.
9 Then tell one of your very important officials to put the robe on the man whom you want to honor, and tell that man to sit on the horse, and then lead the horse through the city streets. And tell that official to keep shouting, ‘This is what (the king does/is doing) for the man whom he wants to honor!’”
Pagkatapos payagang ibigay ang mga balabal at ang kabayo sa isa sa pinakamarangal na opisyal ng hari. Hayaan silang bihisan ang lalaking kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari, at hayaang pasakayin siya sa kabayong lilibot sa mga lansangan ng bayan. Hayaang ipahayag nila sa harapan niya, 'Ganito ang ginagawa sa kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari!”'
10 The king replied to Haman, “[Fine]! Go and do what you said immediately! Get my robe and my horse, and do just what you suggested! Do it for Mordecai, the Jew, who is sitting [outside] at the gate of the palace. Do not forget anything that you suggested!”
Pagkatapos sinabi ng hari kay Haman, “Magmadali, kunin mo ang mga balabal at ang kabayo, gaya ng iyong sinabi, at gawin mo iyon kay Mordecai na Judio na nakaupo sa tarangkahan ng hari. Huwag mabigo sa isa mang bagay na iyong sinabi.”
11 So Haman did what the king said. He got the robe and the horse. He put the robe on Mordecai, and as Mordecai sat on the horse, Haman led the horse through the city streets proclaiming “This is what the king (does/is doing) for the man whom the king wants to honor!”
Pagkatapos kinuha ni Haman ang mga balabal at ang kabayo. Binihisan niya si Mordecai at pinasakay sa kabayo patungo sa mga lansangan ng siyudad. Ipinahayag sa unahan niya, “Ganito ang ginagawa sa tao na kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari!”
12 Then, Mordecai returned [and sat] at the gate of the palace. But Haman hurried home, covering his face [because he felt] completely disgraced/humiliated.
Bumalik si Mordecai sa tarangkahan ng hari. Ngunit nagmadali si Haman sa kanyang bahay, nagluluksa, na may takip ang ulo.
13 He told his wife Zeresh and his friends everything that had happened to him that day. Then his wife and his friends said to him, “Mordecai, the man who has caused you to be completely disgraced/humiliated, is a Jew. [It is clear that the God whom the Jews worship is fighting for them.] So you will never be able to defeat Mordecai. He will defeat you!”
Sinabi ni Haman kay Zeres na kanyang asawa at sa lahat niyang mga kaibigan ang lahat ng bagay na nangyari sa kanya. Pagkatapos sinabi sa kanya ng kanyang mga kalalakihang kilala sa kanilang karunungan, at Zeres na kanyang asawa, “Kapag si Mordecai, ang tao na siyang nagsimula kang bumagsak, ay Judio, hindi mo siya matatalo, ngunit ikaw ay tiyak na babagsak sa harap niya.
14 And while they were still talking, some of the king’s officials arrived to take Haman quickly to the banquet/feast that Esther had prepared.
Habang nakikipag-usap sila sa kanya, dumating ang mga opisyal ng hari. Nagmadaling dinala si Haman sa handaang inihanda ni Esther.
