Estera 7
1 Ary ny mpanjaka sy Hamana dia nankao amin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ho ao amin’ ny fanasana
And the king came with Haman to drink with Esther the queen.
2 Ary hoy indray ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Estera teo am-pisotroan-divay tamin’ ny andro faharoa inona no angatahinao, ry Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka? Fa homena anao izany. Ary inona ange no tadiavinao? Fa na dia hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny fanjakana aza dia hotovina izany.
And the king said unto Esther also 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 if it be equal to half the kingdom, it shall still be done.
3 Dia namaly Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ka nanao hoe: Raha mahita fitia eto imasonao ary aho, ry mpanjaka, ka sitraky ny mpanjaka, dia aoka homena ahy ny aiko araka ny fifonako ary ny fireneko araka ny fangatahako;
Then answered Esther the queen and said, If I have found grace in thy eyes, O king! and if it be pleasing unto the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request;
4 fa namidy izahay, dia izaho sy ny fireneko, mba haringana sy hovonoina ary haripaka; fa raha tahìny namidy ho andevolahy sy ho andevovavy izahay, dia ho nangina ihany aho; kanefa anie tsy mahonitra ny fatiantoky ny mpanjaka tsinona ilay fahavalo e.
For we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain and to be exterminated; and if we had been only sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I would have remained silent; for the adversary regardeth not the damage of the king.
5 Dia namaly Ahasoerosy mpanjaka ka nanao tamin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, hoe: Iza moa izany, ary aiza no hisy hasesiky ny fony hanao izany akory?
Then spoke king Achashverosh and said unto Esther the queen, Who is this, and where is he, whose heart hath emboldened him to do so?
6 Fa hoy Estera: Io Hamana ratsy fanahy io no rafilahy sy fahavalo! Dia raiki-tahotra teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka sy ny vadin’ ny mpanjaka Hamana.
And Esther said, An adversary, and inimical man, this wicked Haman. Then became Haman terrified before the king and the queen.
7 Ary tezitra dia tezitra ny mpanjaka, dia nitsangana niala teo am-pisotroan-divay ho eny an-tanimbolin’ ny trano; ary Hamana kosa nitsangana hangataka ny ainy tamin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, satria hitany fa misy loza hamelin’ ny mpanjaka azy.
And the king arose in his fury from the banquet of wine, and went into the palace-garden: and Haman remained behind to make request for his life of Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil fully determined.
8 Ary ny mpanjaka niverina avy teo an-tanimbolin’ ny trano ho ao amin’ ilay efa nisotroany divay teo, ary Hamana sendra niapoka tamin’ ny farafara nandrian’ i Estera. Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Moa hisavika ny vadin’ ny mpanjaka eto anatrehako eto an-trano va io? Raha vantany vao naloaky ny vavan’ ny mpanjaka izany teny izany, dia nisy nanarona ny tavan’ i Hamana
And when the king returned out of the palace-garden into the apartment of the banquet of wine, Haman was fallen upon the couch whereon Esther was: then said the king. Will he even do violence to the queen before me in the house? The word had just come out of the king's mouth, when they covered Haman's face.
9 Ary Harbona, tsindranolahy anankiray, izay teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka, dia nilaza hoe Indro miorina eo akaikin’ ny tranon’ i Hamana ny hazo, dimam-polo hakiho ny hahavony, izay nataon’ i Hamana hanantonany an’ i Mordekay, ilay niteny soa ho an’ ny mpanjaka. Dia hoy ny mpanjaka ahantòny amin’ io izy.
Then said Charbonah, one of the chamberlains, before the king, Behold, there is also the gallows, which Haman hath had made for Mordecai, who hath spoken well for the king, standing in the house of Haman, fifty cubits high. And the king said, Hang him thereon.
10 Ary Hamana dia nahantony tamin’ ilay hazo efa natsangany hanantonana an’ i Mordekay. Dia vao izay no nionona ny hatezeran’ ny mpanjaka.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai, and the fury of the king was appeased.
