Jestira 6
1 Onu noæ ne mogaše car spavati, i zapovjedi te mu donesoše knjigu od znamenitijeh dogaðaja, dnevnike, te je èitaše caru.
In that night sleep fled from the king, and he ordered to bring in the book of the memorable events of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
2 I naðe se zapisano kako je Mardohej prokazao za Vihtana i Teresa, dva dvoranina, koji èuvahu stražu na pragu, da gledaju da dignu ruke na cara Asvira.
And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Theresh, two chamberlains of the king, of those who kept the door, who had sought to lay [their] hand on king Achashverosh.
3 Tada reèe car: kaka je èast i kako je dobro uèinjeno Mardoheju za to? A momci carevi, sluge njegove, rekoše: nije mu uèinjeno ništa.
And the king said, What honor and distinction have been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king's young men, his servants, There hath nothing been done with him.
4 A car reèe: ko je u trijemu? A Aman bješe došao u spoljašnji trijem dvora careva da kaže caru da se objesi Mardohej na vješala koja mu je pripravio.
And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outer court of the king's house, to say unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows which he had prepared for him.
5 A momci carevi rekoše mu: gle, Aman stoji u trijemu. A car reèe: neka doðe.
And the king's young men said unto him, Behold, Haman is standing in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
6 I Aman doðe, a car mu reèe: šta treba uèiniti èovjeku kojega car hoæe da proslavi? A Aman reèe u sebi: koga bi car htio proslaviti ako ne mene?
So Haman came in; and the king said unto him, What shall be done with the man whom the king desireth to honor? And Haman said in his heart, To whom would the king desire to do honor more than to myself?
7 I reèe Aman caru: koga car hoæe da proslavi,
Haman therefore said to the king, [For] the man whom the king desireth to honor,
8 Treba donijeti carsko odijelo koje car nosi, i dovesti konja na kom car jaše, i metnuti mu na glavu vijenac carski;
Let them bring a royal apparel which the king hath worn, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and let there be placed a royal crown on his head.
9 I odijelo i konja treba dati kome izmeðu najveæih knezova carevijeh da obuku èovjeka onoga kojega car hoæe da proslavi, pa da ga provedu na konju po ulicama gradskim i vièu pred njim: ovako biva èovjeku koga car hoæe da proslavi.
And let the apparel and the horse be given into the hand of one of the king's princes, of the most noble, that they may array the man whom the king desireth to honor, and let them cause him to ride on the horse through the streets of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall be done to the man whom the king desireth to honor.
10 Tada reèe car Amanu: brže uzmi odijelo i konja kao što reèe, i uèini tako Mardoheju, Judejcu koji sjedi na vratima carevijem; nemoj izostaviti ništa što si rekao.
Then said the king to Haman, Make haste, take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast spoken, and do thus to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: leave out nothing of all that thou hast spoken.
11 I uze Aman odijelo i konja, i obuèe Mardoheja i provede ga na konju po ulicama gradskim vièuæi pred njim: ovako biva èovjeku koga car hoæe da proslavi.
And Haman then took the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and caused him to ride through the streets of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall be done unto the man whom the king desireth to honor.
12 Potom se vrati Mardohej na vrata careva, a Aman brže otide kuæi svojoj žalostan i pokrivene glave.
And Mordecai thereupon returned to the king's gate; but Haman hastened to his house, mourning, and having his head covered.
13 I pripovjedi Aman Seresi ženi svojoj i svijem prijateljima svojim sve što mu se dogodi. Tada mu rekoše mudarci njegovi i Seresa žena njegova: kad je od Judejskoga sjemena Mardohej pred kojim si poèeo padati, neæeš mu odoljeti, nego æeš pasti pred njim.
And Haman related to Zeresh his wife and to all his friends all that had befallen him: then said unto him his wise men and Zeresh his wife, If Mordecai, before whom thou hast begun to fall, be of the seed of the Jews, thou wilt not prevail against him, but thou wilt surely fall before him.
14 I dok oni još govorahu s njim, doðoše dvorani carevi i brže odvedoše Amana na objed koji zgotovi Jestira.
They were yet speaking with him, when the king's chamberlains arrived, and they hastened to bring Haman unto the banquet which Esther had prepared.
