< Estè 6 >

1 Menm jou lannwit sa a, wa a pa t' ka dòmi. Li fè yo pote achiv gouvènman kote yo te ekri tou sa ki te pase nan peyi a nan tan lontan. Li fè yo li ladan l' pou li.
On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
2 Nan sa yo li a, te gen yon pòsyon kote yo te rakonte ki jan Madoche te dekouvri konplo de nan domestik konfyans wa a, Bigtan ak Tèrèch, ki t'ap fè pòs devan chanm wa a, te moute pou yo ansasinen wa a.
And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
3 Wa a mande: -Kisa yo te fè pou Madoche lè sa a? Kisa yo te ba li pou sa? Mesye ki te la ap sèvi wa a reponn: -Yo pa t' fè anyen pou li non.
And the king said, What honor and dignity has been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered to him, There is nothing done for him.
4 Wa a mande: -Kilès nan chèf yo ki nan lakou palè a? Lè sa a, Aman te fèk antre nan lakou palè a. Li te vin mande wa a pou l' te fè pann Madoche nan poto li te pare a.
And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was 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.
5 Mesye yo reponn: -Aman la a wi! L'ap espere ou nan lakou a. Wa a di: -Fè l' antre!
And the king’s servants said to him, Behold, Haman stands in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
6 Lè Aman antre, wa a di l' konsa: -Ki pi bèl bagay m' ta fè pou yon moun mwen ta renmen remèsye pou sèvis li rann mwen. Aman di nan kè l': Pa gen lòt moun wa a ta renmen remèsye pase mwen menm!
So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honor? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honor more than to myself?
7 Epi li di wa a: -Yon moun ou ta renmen remèsye pou sèvis li rann ou!
And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delights to honor,
8 Enben! Fè yo pran yonn nan bèl rad ou konn mete sou ou yo pote l' bay moun sa a. Pran chwal ou konn moute a ak tout kouwòn lan sou tèt li.
Let the royal apparel be brought which the king uses to wear, and the horse that the king rides on, and the crown royal which is set on his head:
9 Chwazi yonn nan pi gwo chèf ou yo, fè l' al abiye moun sa a ak rad wa a. Lèfini, l'a fè l' moute sou chwal la. Epi, l'a pwonmennen l' nan tout lavil la sou plas piblik la. Pandan y'ap mache konsa, chèf la va di byen fò: Men ki jan wa a remèsye moun pou sèvis yo rann li.
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 with whom the king delights 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 delights to honor.
10 Lè sa a, wa a di Aman: -Kouri al chache rad la ak chwal la. Epi w'a fè tou sa ou di la a pou Madoche, nonm jwif la. w'a jwenn li chita bò pòtay palè a. Pa bliye anyen nan sa ou te di fè a.
Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as you have said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sits at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that you have spoken.
11 Aman pran rad la ak chwal la, li mete rad la sou Madoche. Li fè Madoche moute sou chwal la. Epi, Aman pwonmennen l' sou plas piblik la. Pandan y'ap mache konsa, li t'ap di byen fò pou tout moun tande: Men ki jan wa a remèsye moun pou sèvis yo rann li.
Then took Haman 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 delights to honor.
12 Apre sa, Madoche tounen tounen l' bò pòtay palè wa a. Aman menm kouri al lakay li, li bouche figi l' sitèlman li te wont.
And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But Haman hurried to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
13 Li rakonte madanm li ak tout zanmi l' yo tou sa ki te rive l'. Lèfini, Zerès, madanm li, ak zanmi l' yo ki te gen bon konprann di l' konsa: -Si Madoche se yon jwif vre, koulye a ou p'ap ka fè l' anyen. Ou konmanse pèdi pye devan l'. Ou mèt sèten se li k'ap kraze ou.
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 be of the seed of the Jews, before whom you have begun to fall, you shall not prevail against him, but shall surely fall before him.
14 Zanmi l' yo t'ap pale toujou, lè domestik konfyans wa yo rive vin chache Aman pou l' ale touswit nan fèt Estè te pare a.
And while they were yet talking with him, came the king’s chamberlains, and hurried to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
