Estera 7
1 Ary ny mpanjaka sy Hamana dia nankao amin’ i Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ho ao amin’ ny fanasana
And the king comes in, and 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 says to Esther also on the second day, during the banquet of wine, “What [is] your petition, Esther, O queen? And it is given to you; and what [is] your request? To the half of the kingdom—and it is 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;
And Esther the queen answers and says, “If I have found grace in your eyes, O king, and if to the king [it be] good, let my life be given to 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 cut off, to slay, and to destroy; and if for menservants and for maidservants we had been sold I had kept silent—but the adversity is not equal to the loss 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?
And King Ahasuerus says, indeed, he says to Esther the queen, “Who [is] he—this one? And where [is] this one whose heart has filled 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 says, “The man—adversary and enemy—[is] this wicked Haman”; and Haman has been afraid at the presence of the king and of 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 has risen, in his fury, from the banquet of wine, to the garden of the house, and Haman has remained to seek for his life from Esther the queen, for he has seen that evil has been determined against him by the king.
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 the king has turned back out of the garden of the house to the house of the banquet of wine, and Haman is falling on the couch on which Esther [is], and the king says, “Also to subdue the queen with me in the house?” The word has gone out from the mouth of the king, and the face of Haman they have covered.
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.
And Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, says before the king, “Also behold, the tree that Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing in the house of Haman, in height fifty cubits”; and the king says, “Hang him on it.”
10 Ary Hamana dia nahantony tamin’ ilay hazo efa natsangany hanantonana an’ i Mordekay. Dia vao izay no nionona ny hatezeran’ ny mpanjaka.
And they hang Haman on the tree that he had prepared for Mordecai, and the fury of the king has lain down.
