1 Pandan nwit lan, wa a pa t kab dòmi. Pou sa, li te pase lòd pou mennen liv achiv kwonik yo pou yo te li li devan wa a.
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.
2 Li te twouve ekri ladann sa ke Mardochée te rapòte konsènan Bigthan avèk Théresch la, de nan enik wa ki te gadyen pòtay yo, ki te chache pou mete men yo sou wa Assuérus la.
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.
3 Wa a te mande: “Ki distenksyon oswa onè yo te bay a Mardochée pou sèvis sa a?” Sèvitè a wa yo te di: “Anyen pa t fèt pou li.”
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.
4 Pou sa, wa a te di: “Kilès ki nan lakou a?” Alò, Haman te fenk antre nan lakou deyò a palè wa a pou l ta kab pale avèk wa a konsènan afè pann Mardochée sou etaj ki te bati pou li a.
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.
5 Sèvitè a wa a te di li: “Men gade byen, Haman kanpe nan lakou a.” Epi wa a te di li: “Kite li antre.”
And the king's servants said to him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
6 Pou sa, Haman te antre anndan e wa a te di li: “Kisa ki ta dwe fèt pou nonm nanke wa a dezire onore a?” Epi Haman te di nan tèt li: “Se kilès wa a ta vle onore plis ke mwen menm nan?”
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?
7 Epi Haman te di a wa a: “Pou nonm ke wa a vle onore a,
And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honor,
8 kite yo mennen yon vètman wayal ke wa a te konn mete, avèk cheval ke wa a te konn monte e sou tèt a sila, yon kouwòn wa a te fin mete.
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:
9 Epi, konsa, kite vètman avèk cheval la remèt a youn nan chèf a wa ki pi onore a e kite yo abiye moun ke wa a vle onore a, mennen li sou do cheval la toupatou nan plas lavil la e pwoklame devan li, ‘Se konsa pou l ta fèt a moun nan ke wa a vle onore a.’”
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.
10 Epi wa a te di a Haman: “Byen vit pran vètman avèk cheval la kon ou te pale a e fè sa pou Mardochée, Jwif la, ki chita nan pòtay wa a. Pa manke nan anyen a tout sa ke ou te pale yo.”
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.
11 Konsa, Haman te pran vètman an avèk cheval la, te abiye Mardochée, te mennen li sou cheval la nan tout plas lavil la, e te fè pwoklamasyon devan l, “Se konsa li va fèt pou nonm ke wa a vle onore a.”
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.
12 Konsa, Mardochée te retounen nan pòtay a wa a, men Haman te kouri byen vit pou rive lakay li avèk kri doulè, ak tèt li kouvri.
And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
13 Haman te rakonte a Zéresch, madanm li avèk tout zanmi li yo tout sa ki te rive li yo. Epi mesye saj yo avèk Zéresch, madanm li an, te di li: “Si Mardochée, devan sila ou kòmanse tonbe a, sòti nan Jwif yo, anverite, ou p ap genyen sou li, men anverite, ou va tonbe devan li.”
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.
14 Pandan yo t ap toujou pale avèk li, enik a wa yo te rive e byen prese, yo te mennen Haman nan bankè ke Esther te prepare a.
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.
