Esther 7
1 So the king and Haman went to feast with Queen Esther.
Sa gayo'y naparoon ang hari at si Aman sa pigingan na kasama ni Esther na reina.
2 On this second day, while they were serving wine, the king said to Esther, “What is your petition, Queen Esther? It will be granted to you. What is your request? Up to half of the kingdom, and it will be granted.”
At sinabi uli ng hari kay Esther nang ikalawang araw sa pigingan ng alak: Ano ang iyong hingi, reina Esther? at ibibigay sa iyo: at ano ang iyong hiling? kahit kalahati ng kaharian ay ipagkakaloob.
3 Then Queen Esther replied, “If I have found favor in your eyes, king, and if it pleases you, let my life be given to me—this is my petition, and I request this also for my people.
Nang magkagayo'y sumagot, at nagsabi si Esther na reina, Kung ako'y nakasumpong ng biyaya sa iyong paningin, Oh hari, at kung kalulugdan ng hari, ipagkaloob sa akin ang aking buhay sa aking hingi at ang aking bayan sa aking hiling:
4 For we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, killed, and annihilated. If we had only been sold into slavery, as male and female slaves, I would have kept quiet, for no such distress as this would justify disturbing the king.”
Sapagka't kami ay naipagbili, ako at ang aking bayan upang ipahamak, upang patayin, at upang lipulin. Nguni't kung kami ay naipagbili na mga pinakaaliping lalake at babae, ako'y tumahimik, bagaman hindi mababayaran ng kaaway ang bagabag sa hari.
5 Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, “Who is he? Where is this person to be found who has filled his heart to do such a thing?”
Nang magkagayo'y nagsalita ang haring Assuero, at nagsabi kay Esther na reina: Sino siya, at saan nandoon siya, na nangangahas magbanta na gumawa ng gayon?
6 Esther said, “The hostile man, that enemy, is this evil Haman!” Then Haman was terrified before the king and the queen.
At sinabi ni Esther, Ang isang kaaway at kaalit: itong masamang si Aman. Nang magkagayo'y natakot si Aman sa harap ng hari at ng reina.
7 The king got up in a rage from the wine-drinking at the feast and went into the palace garden, but Haman stayed to beg for his life from Queen Esther. He saw that disaster was being decided against him by the king.
At ang hari ay tumindig sa pigingan ng alak sa kaniyang pagkapoot, at pumasok sa halamanan ng bahay-hari: at si Aman ay tumayo upang ipamanhik ang kaniyang buhay kay Esther na reina; sapagka't nakita niya na may kasamaang ipinasiya laban sa kaniya ang hari.
8 Then the king returned from the palace garden into the room where the wine had been served. Haman had just fallen on the couch where Esther was. The king said, “Will he assault the queen in my presence in my own house?” As soon as this sentence came out of the king's mouth, the servants covered Haman's face.
Nang magkagayo'y bumalik ang hari na mula sa halamanan ng bahay-hari hanggang sa pigingan ng alak; at si Aman ay sumubsob sa hiligan na kinaroroonan ni Esther. Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng hari, Kaniya bang dadahasin ang reina sa harap ko sa bahay? Pagkabigkas ng salita sa bibig ng hari ay kanilang tinakpan ang mukha ni Aman.
9 Then Harbona, one of the officials who served the king, said, “A gallows fifty cubits tall stands beside Haman's house. He set it up for Mordecai, the one who spoke up to protect the king.” The king said, “Hang him on it.”
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Harbona, na isa sa kamarero na nasa harap ng hari: Narito naman, ang bibitayan na may limang pung siko ang taas, na ginawa ni Aman ukol kay Mardocheo, na siyang nagsalita sa ikabubuti ng hari, ay nakatayo sa bahay ni Aman. At sinabi ng hari, Bitayin siya roon.
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's rage died down.
Sa gayo'y binitay nila si Aman sa bibitayan na inihanda niya ukol kay Mardocheo. Nang magkagayo'y napayapa ang kapootan ng hari.
