< Esther 7 >

1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
Wa a te al nan fèt larenn Estè a ankò ansanm ak Aman.
2 The king said again to Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, “What is your petition, queen Esther? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed.”
Pandan yo t'ap bwè diven, wa a mande Estè, tankou premye jou a: -Di m' sa ou vle, m'ap ba ou li. Ou te mèt mande m' mwatye nan peyi a, m'ap ba ou li!
3 Then Esther the queen answered, “If I have found favour in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
Estè reponn li: -Si wa a kontan avè m', si se plezi li pou li ban mwen sa m' vle a, tanpri, sove lavi m' ansanm ak lavi pèp mwen an. Se sa ase mwen mande ou.
4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for male and female slaves, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king’s loss.”
Paske yo vann nou, mwen menm ansanm ak tout pèp mwen an, pou yo ka masakre nou, touye nou, disparèt nou nèt. Si se vann yo te vann nou pou fè nou tounen esklav, mwen pa ta di anyen, mwen pa ta deranje ou pou sa ase. Men, moun ki pa vle wè nou an p'ap janm ka ranplase pèt l'ap fè ou fè a.
5 Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, “Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?”
Wa Asyeris mande larenn Estè: -Ki moun ki penmèt li gen lide fè bagay konsa? Kote moun lan?
6 Esther said, “An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman!” Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
Estè reponn li: -Moun ki pa vle wè nou an, moun k'ap pèsekite nou an, se Aman, mechan sa a! Aman dekare, li pran tranble devan wa a ak larenn lan.
7 The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen, for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.
Wa a leve bò tab la byen move, li soti deyò al nan jaden palè a. Aman te konnen wa a tapral pini l' pou sa l' fè a. Li rete pou l' mande larenn lan fè pa l'.
8 Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, “Will he even assault the queen in front of me in the house?” As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
Aman te fèk panche kò l' sou divan Estè a pou mande l' padon lè wa a tounen antre soti nan jaden an. Lè wa a wè sa, li di: -Koulye a, apa nonm lan soti pou li fè kadejak sou larenn Estè, l'a devan je m', nan mitan lakay mwen an! Wa a poko fin pale, nèg konfyans yo gen tan kouvri tèt Aman.
9 Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king, said, “Behold, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman has made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing at Haman’s house.” The king said, “Hang him on it!”
Yonn ladan yo ki te rele Abona, di konsa: -Aman te menm gen tan fè kanpe yon poto nan lakou lakay li pou l' te pann Madoche ki te sove lavi wa a. Poto a gen swasannkenz pye wotè. Wa a bay lòd pou yo pann Aman ladan l'.
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath was pacified.
Se konsa yo pann Aman nan poto li te pare pou Madoche a. Apre sa, kòlè wa a tonbe.
