< Esther 5 >
1 After three days, Esther put on her royal clothes and went to stand in the courtyard of the king's palace, in front of the king's house. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the royal house, facing the entrance to the house.
Hahoi, apâthum hnin nah, Esta ni siangpahrang puengcang a kho teh siangpahrang im kalupnae thungvah a kangdue. Siangpahrang teh takhang hoi kadangka lah a bawitungkhung dawk a tahung.
2 When the king saw Esther the queen standing in the courtyard, she received approval in his eyes. He held out to her the golden scepter in his hand. So Esther approached and touched the tip of the scepter.
Hahoi, siangpahrangnu Esta teh siangpahrang imthung kalupnae thung a kangdue e hah siangpahrang ni a hmu navah, a lathueng vah a lunghawi dawkvah siangpahrang ni sui sonron a sin e hah Esta koelah a dâw pouh. Hatdawkvah, Esta ni a vâ a hnai teh siangpahrang e sonron hah dek a tek pouh.
3 Then the king said to her, “What do you want, Queen Esther? What is your request? Up to half of my kingdom, it will be given to you.”
Siangpahrang ni, A yu Esta koe bangmaw na ngai, ka uknaeram a tangawn totouh hai na poe han, telah atipouh.
4 Esther said, “If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come today to a feast that I have prepared for him.”
Esta ni, Siangpahrang nang ni ahawi na tetpawiteh, bu sut kalawng e ven hanlah sahnin Haman hoi rei tho roi ei, telah atipouh.
5 Then the king said, “Bring Haman quickly, to do what Esther has said.” So the king and Haman went to the feast that Esther had prepared.
Siangpahrang ni, Esta ni a dei patetlah Haman karanglah kaw awh, telah atipouh. Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang hoi Haman teh Esta ni sut lawng e pawi koe bu ca hanlah a cei roi.
6 When the wine was being served at the feast, the king said to Esther, “What is your petition? It will be granted you. What is your request? Up to half of the kingdom, it will be granted.”
Misur bout neinae hmuen koevah, siangpahrang ni Esta, bangmaw hei han na ngai. Ka uknaeram a tangawn totouh na poe han, telah atipouh.
7 Esther answered, “My petition and my request is this,
Esta ni ka ngai e hoi ka hei e teh het hah doeh.
8 if I have found favor in the eyes of the king and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and to honor my request, let the king and Haman come to the feast that I will prepare for you tomorrow and I will answer the king's question.”
Siangpahrang minhmai kahawi ka hmu teh, ka heinae siangpahrang ni na poe hanlah na pasoung teh, kahei e hah kuepsak pawiteh, tangtho vah bu vennae koe Haman hoi bout tho roi ei, tangtho teh na dei e patetlah ka ngai e ka dei han toe telah atipouh.
9 Haman went out that day joyful and glad at heart. But when Haman saw Mordecai at the king's gate, that Mordecai neither rose up nor trembled before him with any fear, he was filled with rage against Mordecai.
Hatdawkvah, Haman teh hote hnin navah lunghawi ca lahoi a tâco. Hatei, Haman ni siangpahrang thongma kalupnae longkha e a hmalah, Mordekai ni bari laihoi thaw hoeh, kâroe laipalah ao e hah a hmu navah, Mordekai koe puenghoi a lungkhuek.
10 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went to his own house. He sent for his friends and gathered them together, with Zeresh his wife.
Hatei, Haman teh a kâ cakuep laihoi a im vah a ban. A hui hoi a yu Zeresh hah a kaw sak.
11 Haman recounted to them the splendor of his riches, the number of his many sons, all the promotions by which the king honored him, and how he had advanced above all the officials and the servants of the king.
Hatdawkvah, Haman ni a bawilennae hoi a bawirengnae kong hoi, ca catoun moi a tawnnae kong, siangpahrang ni a tawm teh thaw ka rasang a poenae naw puenghoi alouknaw hlakvah ka rasang poung lah a tanae kong naw hah ahnimouh koevah a dei pouh.
12 Haman said, “Queen Esther invited no one else but me to come with the king to the feast she prepared. Even tomorrow I am again invited by her along with the king.
Hothloilah, siangpahrangnu Esta ni buvennae a sak e dawk kai laipalah siangpahrang koevah apihai kâpa sak hoeh. Tangtho vah siangpahrang hoi bout na coun rah.
13 But all this is worth nothing to me as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.”
Hatei, siangpahrang thongma kalupnae longkha koe ka tahung e Mordekai ka hmu nathung teh hetnaw pueng heh kai hanlah banghai cungkeihoeh, a ti.
14 Then Zeresh his wife said to Haman and all his friends, “Let them make a gallows fifty cubits high. In the morning speak to the king for them to hang Mordecai on it. Then go joyfully with the king to the feast.” This pleased Haman and he had the gallows constructed.
Hatdawkvah, a yu Zeresh hoi a hui naw pueng ni ahni koevah, Dong 50touh karasang e kaithinae hah sak sak nateh Mordekai hah kaithi sak hanlah amom vah siangpahrang koe dei pouh nateh buvennae koe vah lung kanawmcalah siangpahrang hoi rei cet roi haw atipouh awh. Hote lawk ni Haman a lungkuep sak teh kaithinae teh a sak sak.
