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.
| فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ أَرِقَ الْمَلِكُ، فَأَمَرَ أَنْ يَأْتُوا إِلَيْهِ بِكِتَابِ تَاريِخِ أَيَّامِ الْمَمْلَكَةِ، فَقُرِئَ عَلَى الْمَلِكِ، | ١ |
2 And it was found written, that Mordecai had informed of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
| وَإذَا مَكْتُوبٌ فِيهِ مَا كَشَفَهُ مُرْدَخَايُ عَنْ مُؤَامَرَةِ بِغْثَانَا وَتَرَشَ خَصِيَّيِ الْمَلِكِ وَحَاجِبَيِ الْبَابِ اللَّذَيْنِ خَطَّطَا لاِغْتِيَالِ الْمَلِكِ أَحَشْوِيرُوشَ. | ٢ |
3 And the king said, What honor and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king's servants that ministered to him, There is nothing done for him.
| فَسَأَلَ الْمَلِكُ: «أَيَّةُ مُكَافَأَةٍ وَإِكْرَامٍ أَجْزَلْتُهُمَا لِمُرْدَخَايَ مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا؟» فَأَجَابَهُ رِجَالُهُ الْقَائِمُونَ عَلَى خِدْمَتِهِ: «لَمْ يُكَافَأْ بِشَيْءٍ». | ٣ |
4 And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now Haman had come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
| فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ: «مَنْ فِي سَاحَةِ الْقَصْرِ؟» وَكَانَ هَامَانُ قَدْ دَخَلَ سَاحَةَ قَصْرِ الْمَلِكِ الْخَارِجِيَّةَ لِيَطْلُبَ مِنَ الْمَلِكِ أَنْ يَأْمُرَ بِصَلْبِ مُرْدَخَايَ عَلَى الْخَشَبَةِ الَّتِي أَعَدَّهَا لَهُ. | ٤ |
5 And the king's servants said to him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
| فَأَجَابَ رِجَالُ الْمَلِكِ: «هَا هُوَ هَامَانُ وَاقِفٌ فِي السَّاحَةِ». فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ: «لِيَدْخُلْ». | ٥ |
6 So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What shall be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honor? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honor more than to myself?
| وَعِنْدَمَا مَثَلَ هَامَانُ أَمَامَهُ سَأَلَهُ الْمَلِكُ: «أَيَّةُ مُكَافَأَةٍ يَمْنَحُهَا الْمَلِكُ لِلرَّجُلِ الَّذِي يَحْرِزُ مَسَرَّتَهُ؟» فَقَالَ هَامَانُ فِي نَفْسِهِ: «مَنْ يَرْغَبُ الْمَلِكُ أَنْ يُكْرِمَهُ أَكْثَرَ مِنِّي؟» | ٦ |
7 And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honor,
| ثُمَّ أَجَابَ الْمَلِكَ: «تُخْلَعُ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي يَرْغَبُ الْمَلِكُ فِي إِكْرَامِهِ | ٧ |
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:
| الثِّيَابُ الْمَلَكِيَّةُ الَّتِي يَرْتَدِيهَا الْمَلِكُ، وَيُؤْتَى بِالْفَرَسِ الَّذِي يَرْكَبُهُ الْمَلِكُ، وَالتَّاجِ الَّذِي يَضَعُهُ الْمَلِكُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، | ٨ |
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 honor, 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 honor.
| وَلْيُعْهَدْ بِها جَمِيعِهَا إِلَى أَحَدِ أَشْرَافِ أُمَرَاءِ الْمَلِكِ فَيُلْبِسَهَا هَذَا الرَّجُلَ وَيُرْكِبَهُ عَلَى فَرَسِ الْمَلِكِ وَيَقُودَ مَوْكِبَهُ فِي جَمِيعِ أَنْحَاءِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَهُوَ يَهْتِفُ:’هَكَذَا يُكَافَأُ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يَرْغَبُ الْمَلِكُ فِي إِكْرَامِهِ‘». | ٩ |
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.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ الْمَلِكُ لِهَامَانَ: «حَسَناً، أَسْرِعْ وَخُذْ هَذِهِ الثِّيَابَ الْمَلَكِيَّةَ وَفَرَسِي وَافْعَلْ كُلَّ مَا اقْتَرَحْتَهُ لِمُرْدَخَايَ الْيَهُودِيِّ حَاجِبِ الْمَلِكِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَغْفَلَ شَيْئاً». | ١٠ |
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 honor.
| فَأَخَذَ هَامَانُ الثِّيَابَ الْمَلَكِيَّةَ وَأَلْبَسَهَا لِمُرْدَخَايَ وَأَرْكَبَهُ عَلَى فَرَسِ الْمَلِكِ، وَقَادَ مَوْكِبَهُ عَبْرَ شَوَارِعِ الْمَدِينَةِ هَاتِفاً: «هَكَذَا يُكَافِئُونَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي يَرْغَبُ الْمَلِكُ فِي إكْرَامِهِ». | ١١ |
12 And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
| ثُمَّ عَادَ مُرْدَخَايُ إِلَى عَمَلِهِ. أَمَّا هَامَانُ فَأَسْرَعَ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ يَجُرُّ وَرَاءَهُ أَذْيَالَ الْخِزْيِ | ١٢ |
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 wilt not prevail against him, but wilt surely fall before him.
| وَعِنْدَمَا سَرَدَ عَلَى زَوْجَتِهِ زَرَشَ وَعَلَى الْمُقَرَّبِينَ إِلَيْهِ مَا حَدَثَ لَهُ قَالَ لَهُ مُشِيرُوهُ وَزَوْجَتُهُ: «إِنْ كَانَ مُرْدَخَايُ الَّذِي أَخَذَ يَغْلِبُ عَلَيْكَ يَنْتَمِي إِلَى الْجِنْسِ اليَهُودِيِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَنْ تَتَمَكَّنَ مِنَ الْقَضَاءِ عَلَيْهِ بَلْ لابُدَّ أَنْ تَهْلِكَ أَمَامَهُ». | ١٣ |
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.
| وَفِيمَا هُمْ يَتَدَاوَلُونَ فِي الأَمْرِ أَقْبَلَ رُسُلُ الْمَلِكِ يَسْتَدْعُونَ هَامَانَ لِيُسْرِعَ فِي الْحُضُورِ إِلَى المَأْدُبَةِ الَّتِي أَقَامَتْهَا أَسْتِيرُ. | ١٤ |
