Jestira 7
1 I tako doðe car i Aman na objed carici Jestiri.
So the King and Haman came to banket with the Queene Ester.
2 I reèe car Jestiri opet drugi dan napivši se vina: šta želiš, carice Jestiro? daæe ti se; i šta moliš? ako je i do polovine carstva, biæe.
And the King said againe vnto Ester on the second day at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, Queene Ester, that it may be giue thee? and what is thy request? It shalbe euen perfourmed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
3 Tada odgovori carica Jestira i reèe: ako sam našla milost pred tobom, care, i ako je caru ugodno, neka mi se pokloni život moj na moju želju i narod moj na moju molbu.
And Ester the Queene answered, and said, If I haue found fauour in thy sight, O King, and if it please the King, let my life be giuen me at my petition, and my people at my request.
4 Jer smo prodani ja i moj narod da nas potru, pobiju i istrijebe. Da smo prodani da budemo sluge i sluškinje, muèala bih, premda neprijatelj ne bi mogao naknaditi štete caru.
For we are solde, I, and my people, to be destroyed, to be slayne and to perish: but if we were solde for seruants, and for handmaides, I woulde haue helde my tongue: although the aduersarie could not recompense the Kings losse.
5 A car Asvir progovori i reèe carici Jestiri: ko je taj? i gdje je taj koji se usudio tako èiniti?
Then King Ahashuerosh answered, and said vnto the Queene Ester, Who is he? and where is he that presumeth to doe thus?
6 A Jestira reèe: protivnik i neprijatelj ovaj je zlikovac Aman. A Aman se uplaši od cara i od carice.
And Ester said, The aduersarie and enemie is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afrayde before the King and the Queene.
7 Tada car gnjevan usta od vina i otide u vrt kod dvora, a Aman osta da moli za život svoj caricu Jestiru, jer vidje da je car naumio zlo po nj.
And the King arose from ye banket of wine in his wrath, and went into the palace garden: but Haman stood vp, to make request for his life to the Queene Ester: for he sawe that there was a mischiefe prepared for him of the King.
8 Potom se car vrati iz vrta dvorskoga u kuæu gdje bješe pio vino; a Aman bješe pao na odar gdje sjeðaše Jestira. I car reèe: eda li æe i caricu osramotiti kod mene u kuæi? Èim ta rijeè izide iz usta carevijeh, pokriše lice Amanu.
And when the King came againe out of the palace garden, into the house where they dranke wine, Haman was fallen vpon the bed whereon Ester sate! therefore the King sayd, Will he force the Queene also before me in the house? As the worde went out of the Kings mouth, they couered Hamans face.
9 I Arvona, jedan od dvorana carevijeh, reèe: evo i vješala što je naèinio Aman za Mardoheja koji je govorio dobro po cara stoje kod kuæe Amanove, visoka pedeset lakata. I reèe car: objesite ga na njih.
And Harbonah one of the eunuches, sayde in the presence of the King, Beholde, there standeth yet the tree in Hamans house fiftie cubites hie, which Haman had prepared for Mordecai, that spake good for the King. Then the King sayd, Hang him thereon.
10 I tako objesiše Amana na vješala koja bješe pripravio Mardoheju. I gnjev carev utiša se.
So they hanged Haman on the tree, that he had prepared for Mordecai: then was the Kings wrath pacified.
