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.
Kalpasan iti tallo nga aldaw, inkawes ni Ester ti pagan-anayna kas reyna ken napan nagtakder iti akin uneg a paraangan ti palasio ti ari, iti sangoanan iti balay ti ari. Nakatugaw ti ari iti tronona iti balayna, a nakasango iti pagserkan iti balay.
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.
Idi nakita ti ari a nakatakder ni reyna Ester iti paraangan, naay-ayo ti ari kenkuana. Impaturongna kenni Ester ti balitok a setro nga adda iti imana. Immasideg ngarud ni Ester ket sinagidna ti murdong ti setro.
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.”
Ket kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Ania iti kayatmo, Reyna Ester? Ania iti kiddawem? Agingga iti kagudua ti pagariak, ket maipaayto kenka.”
4 Esther said, “If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come today to a feast that I have prepared for him.”
Kinuna ni Ester, “No makaay-ayo daytoy iti ari, umay koma ita nga aldaw ti ari ken ni Haman iti padaya nga insaganak para iti ari.”
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.
Ket kinuna ti ari, “Iyegyo a dagus ni Haman, tapno maaramid ti imbaga ni Ester.” Napan ngarud ti ari ken ni Haman iti padaya nga insagana ni Ester.
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.”
Idi naidasaren ti arak iti padaya, kinuna ti ari kenni Ester, “Ania ti dawatem? Maipaay daytoy kenka. Ania iti kiddawem? Agingga iti kaguddua ti pagarian, maipaayto kenka.”
7 Esther answered, “My petition and my request is this,
Simmungbat ni Ester, “Ti dawat ken kiddawko ket daytoy,
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.”
no makasarakak iti pabor iti imatang ti ari, ken no maay-ayo ti ari a mangipaay iti dawatek ken padayawanna ti kiddawek. Umay koma ti ari ken ni Haman iti padaya nga isaganakto para kadakayo inton bigat, ket sungbatakto ti saludsod ti ari.”
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.
Rimmuar ni Haman iti dayta nga aldaw a naragsak ken agragrag-o iti pusona. Ngem idi nakita ni Haman ni Mardokeo iti ruangan ti palasio ti ari a saan man laeng a timmakder wenno nagkentayeg iti sangoananna nga addaan iti panagbuteng, napnoan isuna iti gura a maibusor kenni Mardokeo.
10 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went to his own house. He sent for his friends and gathered them together, with Zeresh his wife.
Nupay kasta, nagteppel ni Haman ket nagawid iti balayna. Inayabanna dagiti gagayyemna ket naguummongda, a kaduada ni Zeres nga asawana.
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.
Imbinsa-binsa ni Haman kadakuada ti kinadayag dagiti kinabaknangna ken ti bilang dagiti adu a putotna a lallaki, no kasano a nangat-ngato isuna kadagiti amin nga opisial ken kadagiti adipen ti ari.
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.
Kinuna ni Haman, “Uray ni Reyna Ester ket awan ti sabali nga inawisna no di laeng siak a kadua ti ari a napan timmabuno iti padaya nga insaganana. Ken uray inton bigat inawisnak manen a kadua ti ari.
13 But all this is worth nothing to me as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.”
Ngem amin dagitoy a mapadpadasak ket awan serserbina kaniak, agingga a makitkitak ti Judio a ni Mardokeo a nakatugaw iti ruangan ti palasio ti ari.”
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.
Ket kinuna ni Zeres nga asawana kenni Haman ken kadagiti amin a gagayyemna, “Mangpaaramidkayo kadakuada iti pagbitayan a limapulo a kubit ti kangatona. Inton bigat katungtongenyo ti ari a bitayenda ni Mardokeo iti daytoy. Ket mapanka a siraragsak a kadua ti ari iti padaya.” Naay-ayo ni Haman iti daytoy, ket impaaramidna ngarud ti pagbitayan.
