Estera 6
1 Ary tamin’ iny alina iny tsy nahita torimaso ny mpanjaka ka nampaka ny boky fitadidiana ny tantara; ary novakina teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka izany.
That night the king could not sleep. He commanded servants to bring the records of the events of his reign, and they were being read aloud to the king.
2 Ka, indro, voasoratra fa Mordekay no niampanga an’ i Bigtana sy Taresy, roa lahy isan’ ny tsindranolahin’ i ny mpanjaka, dia ireo mpiambina teo am-baravarana izay nitady hamono an’ i Ahasoerosy mpanjaka.
It was found recorded there that Mordecai had told about Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's officials who guarded the entrance, who had tried to harm King Ahasuerus.
3 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Inona moa no fisandratana sy voninahitra mba efa nomena an’ i Mordekay noho izany? Fa hoy ny zatovon’ ny mpanjaka Izay nanompo azy: Tsy mbola nisy nomena azy.
The king asked, “What was done to give honor or recognition to Mordecai for doing this?” Then the king's young men who served him said, “Nothing was done for him.”
4 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Iza no ao an-kianja ao? Ary Hamana kosa efa sendra tonga tao an-kianja ivelan’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ izay hiteny amin’ ny mpanjaka ny amin’ ny hanantonana an’ i Mordekay amin’ ilay hazo efa natsangany hanantonana azy.
The king said, “Who is in the courtyard?” Now Haman had entered the outer courtyard of the king's house to speak to him about hanging Mordecai on the gallows he set up for him.
5 Ka hoy ny zatovon’ ny mpanjaka taminy: Indro, Hamana no mitsangana ao an-kianja. Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Asaovy miditra izy.
The king's servants said to him, “Haman is standing in the courtyard.” The king said, “Let him come in.”
6 Dia niditra Hamana ka hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona no mendrika hatao amin’ izay lehilahy tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra? Ary Hamana nanao anakampo hoe: Koa iza indray moa no ho tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra afa-tsy izaho?
When Haman entered, the king said to him, “What should be done for the man whom the king takes pleasure in honoring?” Now Haman said in his heart, “Whom would the king take pleasure in honoring more than me?”
7 Ka dia hoy Hamana tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Ny amin’ izay lehilahy tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra,
Haman said to the king, “For the man whom the king takes pleasure in honoring,
8 aoka halaina izay akanjo fiandrianana efa niakanjoan’ ny mpanjaka sy soavaly izay efa nitaingenan’ ny mpanjaka sady voaisy satro-boninahitra ny lohany;
let royal robes be brought, robes that the king has worn, and a horse that the king has ridden and on whose head is the royal crest.
9 dia aoka izany fitafiana sy soavaly izany no hatolotra eo an-tànan’ ny anankiray izay malaza indrindra amin’ ny mpanapaka voatendrin’ ny mpanjaka, ary aoka izay lehilahy tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra no hampiakanjoina izany ka hampitaingenina amin’ ny soavaly, dia ho entina eny an-kalalahana eto an-tanàna, ary aoka hisy hiantso eo alohany hoe: Izao no hatao amin’ ny lehilahy izay tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra.
Then let the robes and the horse be given to one of the king's most noble officials. Let them dress the man whom the king takes pleasure in honoring, and let them lead him on the horse through the city streets. Let them proclaim before him, 'This is what is done to the one whom the king takes pleasure in honoring!'”
10 Dia hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Hamana: Faingana ary, alao ny akanjo sy ny soavaly araka ny voalazanao, ka dia ataovy araka izany amin’ i Mordekay Jiosy, izay mipetraka eo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka; aza asiana latsaka izay rehetra nolazainao.
Then the king said to Haman, “Hurry, take the robes and the horse, as you have said, and do this for Mordecai the Jew who sits at the king's gate. Do not fail in a single matter of what you have said.”
11 Dia nalain’ i Hamana ny akanjo sy ny soavaly, ka nampiakanjo an’ i Mordekay izy ary nampitaigina azy tamin’ ny soavaly, dia nitondra azy ho eny an-kalalahana teo an-tanàna ka niantso teo alohany hoe: Izao no hatao amin’ ny lehilahy izay tian’ ny mpanjaka homem-boninahitra.
Then Haman took the robe and the horse. He dressed Mordecai and led him on the horse through the city streets. He proclaimed before him, “This is what is done for a man whom the king takes pleasure in honoring!”
12 Ary Mordekay niverina nankeo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny mpanjaka; fa Hamana kosa nody faingana ho any an-tranony sady nalahelo no nisaron-doha.
Mordecai returned to the king's gate. But Haman hurried to his house, mourning, with his head covered.
13 Dia nolazain’ i Hamana tamin’ i Zaresy vadiny sy ny sakaizany rehetra izay zavatra nanjo azy. Ary hoy ny olon-kendry rehetra sy Zaresy vadiny taminy: Raha avy amin’ ny taranaky ny Jiosy Mordekay, izay efa niantomboka nandavo anao teo anatrehany, dia tsy haharesy azy mihitsy ianao, fa ho lavo eo anatrehany tokoa.
Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that happened to him. Then his men who were known for their wisdom, and Zeresh his wife, said to him, “If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is Jewish, you will not overcome him, but you will certainly fall before him.”
14 Ary raha mbola niresaka taminy ihany ireo, dia tonga ny tsindranolahin’ ny mpanjaka ka naka faingana an’ i Hamana ho ny amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboarin’ i Estera.
While they were talking with him, the king's officials arrived. They hurried to bring Haman to the feast that Esther had prepared.
