< Estera 5 >

1 Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, dia niakanjo akanjo fiandrianana Estera ka nitsangana teo amin’ ny kianja anatiny amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka, dia teo anoloan’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka, ary ny mpanjaka nipetraka teo ambonin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakana tao an-dapa, tandrifin’ ny vavahadin’ ny trano.
And on the third day Ester put on her royal apparel, and stood in the court of the Kings palace within, ouer against the Kings house: and the King sate vpon his royal throne in the Kings palace ouer against the gate of the house.
2 Ary nony hitan’ ny mpanjaka fa, indro, Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka nitsangana teo an-kianja, dia nahita fitia teo imasony izy; ary ny mpanjaka nanondro an’ i Estera tamin’ ny tehim-bolamena izay teny an-tànany. Dia nanatona kosa Estera ka nanendry ny loha-tehina.
And when the King saw Ester the Queene standing in the court, shee founde fauour in his sight: and the King held out the golden scepter that was in his hand: so Ester drewe neere, and touched the toppe of the scepter.
3 Dia hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona no angatahinao, ry Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ary inona no tadiavinao? Fa na dia hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny fanjakana aza, dia homena anao izany.
Then saide the King vnto her, What wilt thou, Queene Ester? and what is thy request? it shall be euen giuen thee to the halfe of ye kingdome.
4 Dia namaly Estera ka nanao hoe: Raha sitraky ny mpanjaka aoka, ny mpanjaka sy Hamana hankao anio amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboariko ho azy.
Then saide Ester, If it please the King, let the King and Haman come this day vnto the banket, that I haue prepared for him.
5 Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Asaovy avy faingana Hamana mba hanao araka ny tenin’ i Estera. Ary ny mpanjaka sy Hamana dia nankeo amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboarin’ i Estera.
And the King sayd, Cause Haman to make haste that he may doe as Ester hath sayde. So the King and Haman came to the banket that Ester had prepared.
6 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Estera teo am-pisotroan-divay: Inona no angatahinao? Fa homena anao izany. Ary inona no tadiavinao? Fa na dia hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny fanjakana aza, dia homena Izany.
And the King sayd vnto Ester at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, that it may be giuen thee? and what is thy request? it shall euen be performed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
7 Dia namaly Estera ka nanao hoe: Izao no angatahiko sy tadiaviko:
Then answered Ester, and sayd, My petition and my request is,
8 Raha mahita fitia eto imason’ ny mpanjaka aho, ka sitraky ny mpanjaka ny hanome izay angatahiko sy hanome izay tadiaviko, dia aoka ny mpanjaka sy Hamana hankao amin’ ny fanasana izay hamboariko ho azy indray; ary rahampitso dia hanao araka ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka ihany aho.
If I haue found fauour in the sight of the King, and if it please the King to giue me my petition, and to perfourme my request, let the King and Haman come to the banket that I shall prepare for them, and I will doe to morowe according to the Kings saying.
9 Dia nivoaka tamin’ izany andro izany Hamana, sady faly sy ravoravo ny fony; fa raha nahita an’ i Mordekay teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka izy, fa, indro, tsy mba nitsangana na nihetsika hitsaoka azy akory dia feno fahatezerana taminy izy.
Then went Haman forth the same day ioyfull and with a glad heart. But when Haman sawe Mordecai in the Kings gate, that he stoode not vp, nor moued for him, then was Haman full of indignation at Mordecai.
10 Kanefa nanindry fo ihany Hamana ka lasa nody tany an-tranony aloha; dia naniraka naka ny sakaizany sy Zaresy vadiny izy.
Neuerthelesse Haman refrayned himselfe: and when he came home, he sent, and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
11 Ary nambaran’ i Hamana tamin’ ireo ny voninahitry ny hareny sy ny hamaroan’ ny zanany mbamin’ Izay voninahitra rehetra nomen’ ny mpanjaka azy sy ny nanandratany azy ho ambony noho ny mpanapaka sy ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjaka.
And Haman tolde them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the King had promoted him, and how that he had set him aboue the princes and seruants of the King.
12 Ary hoy koa Hamana: He! Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, aza tsy naka olona afa-tsy izaho ihany hiaraka amin’ ny mpanjaka ho amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboariny; fa nasainy hiaraka amin’ ny mpanjaka aho koa rahampitso.
Haman sayde moreouer, Yea, Ester the Queene did let no man come in with the King to the banket that she had prepared, saue me: and to morowe am I bidden vnto her also with the King.
13 Nefa na dia izany rehetra izany aza, dia tsy mbola mahafa-po ahy ihany, raha mbola mahita an’ i Mordekay Jiosy mipetraka eo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka aho.
But al this doth nothing auaile me, as long as I see Mordecai ye Iewe sitting at ye Kings gate.
14 Dia hoy Zaresy vadiny sy ny sakaizany rehetra taminy: Aoka hanaovana hazo, dimam-polo hakiho ny hahavony, ary raha maraina dia lazao amin’ ny mpanjaka mba hahantona eo Mordekay; fa mandehana miaraka amin’ ny mpanjaka amin’ ny hafaliana ho any amin’ ny fanasana ianao. Ary sitrak’ i Hamana izany zavatra izany, ka dia nampanao ilay hazo izy.
Then sayde Zeresh his wife and all his friends vnto him, Let them make a tree of fiftie cubites hie, and to morowe speake thou vnto the King, that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then shalt thou goe ioyfully with the King vnto the banket. And the thing pleased Haman, and he caused to make the tree.
