Esther 6
1 In that night the king could not sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
Tanī naktī ķēniņam nenāca miegs un viņš pavēlēja, lai atnes laiku grāmatu, kur tās vērā liekamās lietas bija uzrakstītas.
2 And it was found written, that Mordecai had informed on Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
Un to lasīja ķēniņa priekšā. Un tur atrada rakstītu, ka Mardakajs bija zināmu darījis, ka Bigtans un Teres, ķēniņa divi kambarjunkuri un sliekšņa sargi, bija meklējuši roku likt pie ķēniņa Ahasverus.
3 And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been bestowed upon Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered to him, There is nothing done for him.
Tad ķēniņš sacīja: kāds gods un kāda paaugstināšana Mardakajam par to notikusi? Un ķēniņa jaunekļi, viņa sulaiņi, sacīja: viņam nekas nav noticis.
4 And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king’s house, to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
Tad ķēniņš sacīja: kas ir pagalmā? (Bet Amans bija nācis ķēniņa nama ārējā pagalmā, ķēniņam sacīt, lai Mardakaju pakar pie tā koka, ko viņš tam bija licis uzcelt.)
5 And the king’s servants said to him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
Un ķēniņa jaunekļi uz viņu sacīja: redzi, Amans stāv pagalmā. Tad ķēniņš sacīja: lai viņš nāk iekšā.
6 So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What shall be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?
Tad Amans nāca iekšā, un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: ko būs darīt tādam vīram, ko ķēniņš labprāt grib godāt? Tad Amans domāja savā sirdī: kurš būs, ko ķēniņš grib godāt, nekā es pats?
7 And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour,
Tādēļ Amans sacīja uz ķēniņu: Tam vīram, ko ķēniņš grib godāt,
8 Let the royal apparel be brought which the king useth to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head:
Tam būs nest ķēniņa drēbes, ar ko ķēniņš pats mēdz apģērbties, un zirgu, uz kā ķēniņš mēdz jāt un kam valstības kronis likts uz galvas.
9 And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that they may array the man whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
Un to drēbi ar to zirgu būs rokā dot vienam no tiem lielkungiem un to vīru, ko ķēniņš grib godāt, ar to būs apģērbt, un viņam likt jāt uz tā zirga pa pilsētas ielām un viņa priekšā izsaukt: tā dara tam vīram, ko ķēniņš grib godāt.
10 Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.
Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Amanu: steidzies, ņem to drēbi un to zirgu, tā kā tu esi runājis, un dari tā tam Jūdam Mardakajam, kas sēž ķēniņa vārtos, un lai netrūkst neviena vārda no visa, ko tu esi runājis.
11 Then Haman took the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
Tad Amans ņēma tās drēbes un to zirgu un apģērba Mardakaju, un lika viņam jāt pa pilsētas ielām un izsauca viņa priekšā: tā dara tam vīram, ko ķēniņš grib godāt.
12 And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
Pēc tam Mardakajs griezās atpakaļ ķēniņa vārtos; bet Amans steidzās atkal mājās, bēdīgs un aizsegtu galvu.
13 And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife to him, If Mordecai is of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.
Un Amans teica savai sievai Zeresai un visiem saviem draugiem visu, kas viņam bija noticis. Tad viņa gudrie un Zeresa, viņa sieva, uz to sacīja: ja Mardakajs, kā priekšā tu esi iesācis krist, ir no Jūdu dzimuma, tad tu pret viņu nekā neiespēsi, bet tu viņa priekšā krizdams kritīsi.
14 And while they were yet talking with him, came the king’s chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
Kad tie vēl ar viņu runāja, tad ķēniņa kambarjunkuri atnāca un steigšus Amanu noveda dzīrēs, ko Estere bija sataisījusi.
