Esetera 7
1 HELE mai la no hoi ke alii a me Hamana e ahainu me Esetera.
So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
2 Ninau hou mai la ke alii ia Esetera, i ka lua o ka la ma ka ahainuwaina, Heaha kau mea e nonoi mai ai, e ke alii wahine, e Esetera? E haawiia no ia ia oe. A heaha hoi kau kauoha? E hanaia no ia, ina paha o ka hapalua ia o ke aupuni.
And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed.
3 Olelo aku la o Esetera o ke alii wahine, i aku la, Ina i loaa ia'u ke alohaia mai, imua ou, e ke alii, a ina i lealea ke alii, alaila e haawiia ko'u ola no'u ma kuu nonoi ana, a me ko'u lahuikanaka hoi, ma ka'u kauoha.
Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favor in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request:
4 No ka mea, ua kuaiia e lilo aku makou, owau, a me ko'u lahuikanaka, e lukuia, a e pepehiia hoi a make. Ina ua kuaiia a lilo aku makou i poe kauwakane, a i poe kauwawahine, ina ua olelo ole au, e hiki ole nae i ka enemi e pani i ka hakahaka o ko ke alii mea poho.
for we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king’s damage.
5 Alaila, olelo mai ke alii, o Ahasuero, ninau mai la ia Esetera, i ke alii wahine, Owai la ia, auhea la hoi ka mea i hoopiha i kona naau, e hana pela?
Then spake the king Ahasuerus and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?
6 I aku la o Esetera, O ka enemi ka mea i ku e mai, o keia Hamana hewa no. Alaila, makau o Hamana imua i ke alo o ke alii, a me ke alii wahine.
And Esther said, An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
7 Ku ae la ke alii mai ka ahainuwaina, me ka huhu, a hele aku la i ka pakanu o ka hale alii: a ku mai la Hamana imua o Esetera, ke alii wahine, e nonoi ia ia i ke, ola nona; no ka mea, ua ike oia, ua hoomakaukauia ka hewa nona, e ke alii.
And the king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine [and went] into the palace garden: and 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.
8 A hoi mai la ke alii mai ka pakanu o ka hale alii, a i kahi o ka ahainuwaina: ua hina o Hamana maluna o kahi i moe ai o Esetera. Alaila, i iho la ke alii, E pue anei oia i ke alii wahine, imua o ko'u alo iloko o ka hale? A puka aku la ia olelo iwaho o ka waha o ke alii, uhi iho la lakou i ka maka o Hamana.
Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the couch whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he even force the queen before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
9 A olelo mai no hoi o Harebona, kekahi o na luna imua o ke alii, Aia hoi ke olokea, he kanalima kubita ke kiekie, ka mea a Hamana i hana'i no Moredekai, ka mea i olelo i ka maikai no ke alii, ke ku la no maloko o ka hale o Hamana. Alaila, i mai la ke alii, E liia oia nei maluna olaila.
Then said Harbonah, one of the chamberlains that were before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman hath made for Mordecai, who spake good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. And the king said, Hang him thereon.
10 A li lakou ia Hamana ma ke olokea ana i hoomakaukau ai no Moredekai. Alaila, ua pau ka huhu o ke alii.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.
