1 Fia Ahasuerus mete ŋu dɔ alɔ̃ le gbe ma gbe ƒe zã me o, eya ta wòna wotsɔ fiasã la ƒe nyadzɔdzɔgbalẽ, si ku ɖe eƒe dziɖuɖu ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo ŋuti vɛ be woaxlẽ nɛ.
The kyng ledde that nyyt with out sleep, and he comaundide the stories and the bookis of yeeris `of formere tymes to be brouyt to hym. And whanne tho weren red in his presense,
2 Woke ɖe eŋu le agbalẽ la me be, Bigtan kple Teres, fia la ƒe nyɔnuwo dzi kpɔlawo kple agbonudzɔla eve wowɔ ɖoɖo ɖe Fia Zerzes wuwu ŋuti, eye Mordekai na fia la nya.
me cam to the place, where it was writun, hou Mardochee hadde teld the tresouns of Gabathan and Thares, oneste seruauntis, couetynge to strangle kyng Assuerus.
3 Fia la bia eƒe aɖaŋudelawo be, “Nu ka tututue míena Mordekai le nyanyanana sia ta?” Eƒe aɖaŋudelawo ɖo eŋu be, “Womena nanekee o!”
And whanne the kyng hadde herd this, he seide, What onour and meede gat Mardochee for this feithfulnesse? And hise seruauntis and mynystris seiden to hym, Outirli he took no meede.
4 Fia la bia be, “Ame kae le xɔxɔnu afi ma?” Eva eme be Haman va ɖo afi ma teti be yeabia fia la be wòaɖe mɔ na ye yeade ka ve na Mordekai ɖe kadeveti si tum yenɔ la ŋu.
And anoon the kyng seide, Who is in the halle? Sotheli Aaman hadde entrid in to the ynnere halle of the kyngis hows, to make suggestioun to the kyng, that he schulde comaunde Mardochee to be hangid on the iebat, which was maad redi to him.
5 Aɖaŋudelawo ɖo eŋu na fia la be, “Ame si le afi ma lae nye Haman.” Fia la ɖe gbe be, “Miyɔe ɖa.”
And the children answeriden, Aaman stondith in the halle.
6 Ale Haman yi fia la gbɔ, eye fia la biae be, “Nu ka woawɔ atsɔ ade bubu ame aɖe si ŋu mekpɔ ŋudzedze tɔxɛ le la?” Tete Haman bu le eƒe ta me be, “Ame ka gɔ̃ ŋu fia la ade bubui ne menye nye ko oa?”
And the kyng seide, Entre he. And whanne he was comun yn, the kyng seide to hym, What owith to be don to the man, whom the kyng desirith onoure? Aaman thouyte in his herte, and gesside, that the kyng wolde onoure noon othere man no but hym silf;
7 Ale wòɖo eŋu na fia la be, “Hena ame si ƒe nu do dzidzɔ na fia la, eye wòdi be yeade bubu eŋu la,
and he answeride, The man, whom the kyng couetith to onoure,
8 fia la nana woatsɔ fiawu ado nɛ, wòana wòado fia la ƒe sɔ, woaɖɔ fia la ƒe fiakuku nɛ.
owith to be clothid with the kyngis clothis, and to be set on the hors which is of the kyngis sadel, and to take the kyngis diademe on his heed;
9 Ekema fia la nana woatsɔ fiawu la kple fia la ƒe sɔ la ade asi na fia la ƒe bubume ɖeka. Fia la nana wodoa fiawu la na ame si ƒe nu do dzidzɔ nɛ wòbe yeade bubu eŋu, ekema bubume la anɔ sɔ la ŋgɔ, woato dua ƒe ablɔwo dzi, eye bubume la nanɔ gbeƒã ɖem le eŋgɔ be, ‘Esiae nye nu si wowɔ na ŋutsu si ƒe nu nyo fia la ŋu, eye wòde bubu eŋu.’”
and the firste of the princes and stronge men of the kyng holde his hors, and go bi the stretis of the citee, and crie, and seie, Thus he schal be onourid, whom euer the kyng wole onoure.
10 Fia la gblɔ na Haman be, “Enyo ŋutɔ! Ɖe abla nàtsɔ fiawu la kple nye sɔ la, eye nàwɔ nu si nègblɔ la tututu na Mordekai, Yudatɔ, ame si nɔa agboa nu. Wɔ nu sia abe ale si nègblɔe ene la pɛpɛpɛ!”
Therfor the kyng seide to hym, Haste thou, and whanne `a stoole and hors is takun, do thou, as thou hast spoke, to Mardochee the Jew, that sittith bifor the yatis of the paleis; be thou war, that thou leeue not out ony thing of these, whiche thou hast spoke.
11 Ale Haman tsɔ fiawu la do na Mordekai, ena wòdo fia la ŋutɔ ƒe sɔ, eye wòkplɔe to dua ƒe ablɔwo dzi, nɔ ɣli dom le eŋgɔ be, “Esiae nye nu si wowɔ na ŋutsu si ƒe nu nyo fia la ŋu, eye wòde bubu eŋu!”
Therfor Aaman took `a stoole and hors, and yede, and criede bifor Mardochee clothid in the strete of the citee, and set on `the hors, He is worthi this onour, whom euer the kyng wole onoure.
12 Le esia megbe la, Mordekai trɔ yi eƒe dɔwɔƒe, ke Haman ɖe abla yi aƒe me kple nuxaxa blibo.
And Mardochee turnede ayen to the yate of the paleis, and Aaman hastide to go in to his hows, morenynge, and with the heed hilid.
13 Egblɔ nu siwo katã va dzɔ ɖe edzi la na srɔ̃a, Zeres kple exɔlɔ̃wo. Eƒe aɖaŋuɖolawo kple srɔ̃a wogblɔ nɛ be, “Zi ale si Mordekai, ame si dzi wò anyidzedze dze egɔme tsoe nye Yudatɔ la, màte ŋu anɔ te ɖe enu o; vavã àtsrɔ̃ godoo!”
And he teld to Zares, his wijf, and to frendis alle thingis that hadden bifelde to hym. To whom the wise men, whiche he hadde in counsel, and his wijf, answeriden, If Mardochee, bifor whom thou hast bigunne to falle, is of the seed of Jewis, thou schalt not mowe ayenstonde hym, but thou schalt falle in his siyt.
14 Esime woganɔ ŋugble dem tso nya sia ŋu kplii la, fia la ƒe ame dɔdɔawo va kplɔ Haman yi Ester ƒe kplɔ̃ si wòɖo la ŋu.
Yit while thei spaken, the oneste seruauntis and chast of the kyng camen, and compelliden hym to go soone to the feeste, which the queen hadde maad redi.
