< Esther 7 >
1 Ouinge tokosra ac Haman som in mongo yorol Esther
So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
2 ke pacl se akluo. Ke pacl eltal nim wain, tokosra el sifilpa siyuk, “Kasra Esther, fahk nu sik ma kom lungse, ac nga ac fah sot nu sum. Kom finne siyuk ke tafu tokosrai luk, ac fah itukot nu sum.”
The king said again to Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, “What is your petition, queen Esther? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed.”
3 Kasra Esther el topuk, “Fin oh lungse lun Tokosra, ac el fin insewowo in porongo mwe siyuk luk, pa inge ma nga kena kac, tuh nga in ku in moul, wi pac mwet srahk.
Then Esther the queen answered, “If I have found favour in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
4 Nga ac mwet srahk kukakinyukla tari in anwuki. Funu kukakinyukla kut nu ke mwet kohs, nga lukun misla na ac tia lusrong tokosra. Tusruktu akoeyuk in sikiyukla kut — kut nukewa ac wanginla!”
For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for male and female slaves, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king’s loss.”
5 Na Tokosra Ahasuerus el siyuk sel Kasra Esther, “Su enum se ku in oru ouinge— Pia mwet sacn?”
Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, “Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?”
6 Esther el topuk, “Mwet lokoalok lasr, su akola in kalyei kut, pa mwet koluk se inge Haman!” Haman el ngetang nu sel tokosra ac kasra, ac el rarrar ke sangeng.
Esther said, “An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman!” Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
7 Tokosra el arulana foloyak ac tuyak som liki kufwa uh, ac illa nu likinuma nu ke ima ros lun inkul fulat. Haman el akilen lah tokosra el akola in sang kalya na yohk nu sel ke ma se inge, oru el mutana in kwafe sel Kasra Esther elan molella.
The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. 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 El tufahna fungyang nu fin mwe oan se Esther el muta fac in kwafe elan nunak munas nu sel, ke pacl se tokosra el sifilpa utyak nu in lohm uh liki imae. Tokosra el wola, “Ya mwet se inge ac sruinkuel kasra ye mutuk in lohm uh?” Ke pacl se tokosra el fahkla kas inge, mwet eunuch uh afinya mutal Haman.
Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, “Will he even assault the queen in front of me in the house?” As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
9 Na sie sin mwet eunuch lal tokosra pangpang Harbona el fahk, “Sie pac ma Haman el oru pa el musaela sie nien loksak fit itngoul limekosr fulata pe lohm sel elan srupsrulak Mordecai kac, el su tuh molela moul lun tokosra!” Tokosra el sapkin, “Srupsrulak Haman olo!”
Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king, said, “Behold, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman has made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing at Haman’s house.” The king said, “Hang him on it!”
10 Ouinge sripsripyak Haman ke nien loksak se su el musaela nu sel Mordecai. Na tufah ohula kasrkusrak lal tokosra.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath was pacified.
