एस्तर 7
1 त्यसैले राजा र हामान रानी एस्तरसित भोजन गर्न गए ।
So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
2 यो दोस्रो दिनमा, तिनीहरूले दाखमद्य बाँड्दै गर्दा राजाले एस्तरलाई सोधे, “रानी एस्तर, तिम्री बिन्ती के हो? तिमीलाई त्यो दिइनेछ । तिम्रो अनुरोध के हो? आधा राज्यसम्म पनि तिमीलाई दिइनेछ ।”
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 तर रानी एस्तरले जवाफ दिइन्, “हे महाराज, मैले हजुरको नजरमा निगाह पाएकी छु र हजुरलाई खुसी लाग्छ भने, मेरो जीवन मलाई नै दिइयोस् । मेरो बिन्ती यही नै हो, र मेरो जातिको लागि पनि यसै गरियोस् भनी म बिन्ती गर्छु ।
Then Esther the queen answered, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
4 किनकि म र मेरो मानिसहरू नाश पारिन, मारिन र नामेट पारिन बेचिएका छौँ । हामी दास-दासीको रूपमा मात्र दासत्वमा बेचिएका भए म चुप रहन्थेँ किनकि त्यस्तो दुःखले मात्र त महाराजालाई बाधा दिनु न्यासङ्गत हुँदैन ।”
For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondservants and bondmaids, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king's loss."
5 तब राजा अहासूरसले रानी एस्तरलाई सोधे, “त्यो को हो? यस्तो कुरा गर्न आफ्नो हृदय भरेर बस्ने त्यो व्यक्ति कहाँ छ?
Then King Achashyerosh said to Esther the queen, "Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?"
6 एस्तरले जवाई दिइन्, “त्यो विरोधी, शत्रु यही दुष्ट हामान हो ।” तब हामान राजा र रानीको सामु डरले थरथर काँपे ।
Esther said, "An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman." Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
7 राजा भोजमा दाखमद्य पिइरहेको अवस्थाबाट रिसले चुर भएर उठे, र राजमहलको बगैँचामा गए, तर हामानचाहिं रानी एस्तरबाट आफ्नो जीवनको भिग माग्न त्यहीँ बसे । राजाले तिनको विरुद्धमा विपत्ती ल्याउँदै थिए भनी तिनले देखे ।
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 तब राजमहलको बगैँचाबाट दाखमद्य बाँडिएको कोठामा राजा फर्केर आए । हामानचाहिं भर्खरै एस्तर बसिरहेको सोफाको छेउमा पसारो परेका थिए । राजाले भने, “के मेरै उपस्थिति मेरै घरमा त्यसले रानीलाई बलात्कार गर्न खोज्छ?” राजाको मुखबाट यो वाक्य बाहिर निस्कनेबित्तिकै अधिकारीहरूले हामानको अनुहार छोपे ।
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 तब राजाको सेवा गर्ने एक जना अधिकारी हर्बोनाले भने, “हामानको घरको छेउमा पच्चिस मिटर लामो एउटा फाँसीको काठ खडा छ । महाराजाको ज्यान जोगाइदन बोल्ने मोर्दकैको निम्ति त्यसले त्यो तयार पारेको हो ।” राजाले भने, “त्यसलाई त्यसैमा झुण्ड्याओ ।”
Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king said, "Look, the gallows seventy-three feet eight inches 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 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले हामानले मोर्दकै को निम्ति तयार पारेको फाँसीको काठमा उसैलाई झुण्ड्याए । तब राजाको रिस मर्यो ।
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.
