Esther 6
1 On that night hath the sleep of the king fled away, and he saith to bring in the book of memorials of the Chronicles, and they are read before the king,
Saa anadwo no, ɔhene no antumi anna, enti ɔmaa ɔsomfoɔ bi kɔfaa nʼahemman mu abakɔsɛm nkrataa baeɛ sɛ wɔnkenkan nkyerɛ no.
2 and it is found written that Mordecai had declared concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs of the king, of the keepers of the threshold, who sought to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus.
Ɔhunuu sɛdeɛ Mordekai kɔdaa atirisopam bi adi, deɛ Bigtana ne Teres a na wɔyɛ apiafoɔ baanu a na wɔwɛn ɔhene no apono ano no pamee wɔ nkrataa no mu. Wɔpamm ɔhene no tiri so sɛ wɔbɛkum no.
3 And the king saith, 'What honour and greatness hath been done to Mordecai for this?' And the servants of the king, his ministers, say, 'Nothing hath been done with him.'
Ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn akatua anaa nkaeɛ adeɛ bɛn na wɔde ama Mordekai wɔ yei ho?” Asomfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Wɔnyɛɛ hwee mmaa no.”
4 And the king saith, 'Who [is] in the court?' — and Haman hath come in to the outer court of the house of the king, to say to the king to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him —
Ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔhyɛ akyire hɔ adihɔ hɔ no?” Ɛbaa sɛ, na afei na Haman abɛduru ahemfie adihɔ a ɛwɔ akyire hɔ no a ɔrebɛka akyerɛ ɔhene no, na wasɛn Mordekai wɔ dua a wasi no so.
5 and the servants of the king say unto him, 'Lo, Haman is standing in the court;' and the king saith, 'Let him come in.'
Nʼasomfoɔ no buaa ɔhene no sɛ, “Haman na ɔhyɛ hɔ.” Ɔhene no kaa sɛ, “Momfa no mmra mu.”
6 And Haman cometh in, and the king saith to him, 'What — to do with the man in whose honour the king hath delighted?' And Haman saith in his heart, 'To whom doth the king delight to do honour more than myself?'
Enti, Haman kɔɔ mu, maa ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na menyɛ mfa nhyɛ ɔbarima a nokorɛm, ɔsɔ mʼani no animuonyam?” Haman bisaa ne ho sɛ, “Hwan na ɔfata sɛ ɔhene hyɛ no animuonyam sene me?”
7 And Haman saith unto the king, 'The man in whose honour the king hath delighted,
Enti, ɔbuaa sɛ, “Sɛ ɔhene pɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ obi animuonyam a,
8 let them bring in royal clothing that the king hath put on himself, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and that the royal crown be put on his head,
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde nʼankasa ahentadeɛ mu baako ne nʼankasa pɔnkɔ a adehyeɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bɔ ne moma so ba.
9 and to give the clothing and the horse into the hand of a man of the heads of the king, the chiefs, and they have clothed the man in whose honour the king hath delighted, and caused him to ride on the horse in a broad place of the city, and called before him: Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'
Ka kyerɛ mmapɔmma no mu baako a ɔdi mu yie, na ɔmfa ahentadeɛ nhyɛ no, na ɔnni nʼanim mfa no mmra adwaberem hɔ a ɔte ɔhene no ankasa pɔnkɔ so. Ɛsɛ sɛ mmapɔmma no gye no akurum sɛ, ‘Saa na ɔhene yɛ wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ wɔn animuonyam no!’”
10 And the king saith to Haman, 'Haste, take the clothing and the horse, as thou hast spoken, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting in the gate of the king; there doth not fall a thing of all that thou hast spoken.'
Ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ Haman sɛ, “Ɛyɛ koraa! Ka wo ho kɔfa ahentadeɛ no ne me pɔnkɔ no, na yɛ sɛdeɛ wopɛ sɛ woyɛ no ma Yudani Mordekai a ɔte ahemfie ɛpono ano no. Mma wo werɛ mfiri sɛ wobɛyɛ biribiara a woaka ho asɛm no.”
11 And Haman taketh the clothing, and the horse, and clothed Mordecai, and causeth him to ride in a broad place of the city, and calleth before him, 'Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'
Enti, Haman faa ahentadeɛ no de hyɛɛ Mordekai, de no tenaa Ɔhene no ankasa pɔnkɔ so, de no kɔɔ kuro no adwaberem hɔ a na ɔpae di nʼanim sɛ, “Saa na ɔhene yɛ wɔn a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔhyɛ wɔn animuonyam no.”
12 And Mordecai turneth back unto the gate of the king, and Haman hath been hastened unto his house mourning, and with covered head,
Akyire yi, Mordekai sane kɔɔ ahemfie hɔ ɛpono no ano, na Haman de ɔyea a ano yɛ den ne aniwuo yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ efie.
13 and Haman recounteth to Zeresh his wife, and to all his friends, all that hath met him, and his wise men say to him, and Zeresh his wife, 'If Mordecai [is] of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou art not able for him, but dost certainly fall before him.'
Ɛberɛ a Haman bɔɔ ne yere Seres ne ne nnamfonom nyinaa amaneɛ no, wɔkaa sɛ, “Esiane sɛ Mordekai a ɔguu wʼanim ase yi yɛ Yudani enti, nhyehyɛeɛ biara a wobɛyɛ atia no no renyɛ yie. Sɛ wotoa so tia no a, ɛbɛkɔ no bɔne ama wo.”
14 They are yet speaking with him, and eunuchs of the king have come, and haste to bring in Haman unto the banquet that Esther hath made.
Ɛberɛ a wɔgu so rekasa no, ɔhene apiafoɔ no baeɛ sɛ, wɔrebɛfa Haman akɔ Ɛster apontoɔ a wasiesie no ase.
