Esta 6
1 Usiku ule mfalme hakupata usingizi. Akaagiza vitabu vya kumbukumbu vya matukio ya ufalme wake viletwe na visomwe mbele zake. Vitabu visomwa kwa sauti mbele ya mfalme.
The kyng ledde that nyyt with out sleep, and he comaundide the stories and the bookis of yeeris `of formere tymes to be brouyt to hym. And whanne tho weren red in his presense,
2 Ikakutwa kuwa Modekai alikuwa ametoa taarifa kuhusu Bighana na Tereshi, walinzi walio linda lango, waliokuwa wamepanga kumuangamiza Mfalme Ahusiero.
me cam to the place, where it was writun, hou Mardochee hadde teld the tresouns of Gabathan and Thares, oneste seruauntis, couetynge to strangle kyng Assuerus.
3 Kisha mfalme akauliza, Modekai alifanyiwa nini cha heshima kwa kwa taarifa aliyoitoa? Ndipo watumishi wa mfalme wakamwambia, “Hakufanyiwa kitu chochote.”
And whanne the kyng hadde herd this, he seide, What onour and meede gat Mardochee for this feithfulnesse? And hise seruauntis and mynystris seiden to hym, Outirli he took no meede.
4 Kisha mfalme akauliza, “Ni nani aliye ndani ya ua.” Na Hamani alikuwa ameingia katika ua wa mfalme ili amwombe mfalme atoe kibali ili Modekai atundikwe kwenye mti aliouandaa.
And anoon the kyng seide, Who is in the halle? Sotheli Aaman hadde entrid in to the ynnere halle of the kyngis hows, to make suggestioun to the kyng, that he schulde comaunde Mardochee to be hangid on the iebat, which was maad redi to him.
5 Watumishi wakamjibu, “Hamani amesimama katika ua ya mfalme.” Mfalme akasema, “Mwambieni aingie ndani.”
And the children answeriden, Aaman stondith in the halle.
6 Mara tu Hamani alipoingia, mfalme akamuuliza, afanyiewe nini mtu yule ambaye mfalme anampenda na kumheshimu?” Hamani akafikiri moyoni mwake, “Ni nani ambaye mfalme ampenda na kumuheshimu zaidi yangu?
And the kyng seide, Entre he. And whanne he was comun yn, the kyng seide to hym, What owith to be don to the man, whom the kyng desirith onoure? Aaman thouyte in his herte, and gesside, that the kyng wolde onoure noon othere man no but hym silf;
7 Hamani amjibu mfame, Kwa mtu yule ambaye mfalme ampenda na kumuheshimu,
and he answeride, The man, whom the kyng couetith to onoure,
8 avikwe nguo za kifalme, mavazi ambayo mfalme amekwisha yavaa na farasi ambaye ametumiwa na mfalme na ambaye ana taji ya kifalme kichwani mwake.
owith to be clothid with the kyngis clothis, and to be set on the hors which is of the kyngis sadel, and to take the kyngis diademe on his heed;
9 Nguo hizo na farasi apewe msimamizi bora kuliko wote. Na wamvike yule ambaye mfalme ampenda na kumuheshimu, na wampandishe juu ya farasi na kumpitisha katika mitaa yote ya mji. Na watangaze mbele yake, “Hivi ndivyo alivyofanyiwa mtu yule ambaye mfalme ampenda na kumuheshimu!”
and the firste of the princes and stronge men of the kyng holde his hors, and go bi the stretis of the citee, and crie, and seie, Thus he schal be onourid, whom euer the kyng wole onoure.
10 Kisha mfalme akamwambia, Hamani “fanya hima, mvike Modekai nguo na umpandishe kwenye farasi, na lisipungue hata jambo moja katika hayo uliyo yasema.”
Therfor the kyng seide to hym, Haste thou, and whanne `a stoole and hors is takun, do thou, as thou hast spoke, to Mardochee the Jew, that sittith bifor the yatis of the paleis; be thou war, that thou leeue not out ony thing of these, whiche thou hast spoke.
11 Kisha Hamani akachukua mavazi na farasi. Akamvika Modekai na akampandisha kwenye farasi na kumpitisha katika mitaa yote ya mji. Akatangaza mbele zake, “Hii imefanyika kwa mtu ambaye mfalme anampenda na kumuheshimu!”
Therfor Aaman took `a stoole and hors, and yede, and criede bifor Mardochee clothid in the strete of the citee, and set on `the hors, He is worthi this onour, whom euer the kyng wole onoure.
12 Baada ya hayo Modekai alirudi kwenye lango la mfalme. Huku Hamani akarudi kwa haraka nyumbani kwake, huku akiomboleza, na akiwa ameinamisha kichwa chake.
And Mardochee turnede ayen to the yate of the paleis, and Aaman hastide to go in to his hows, morenynge, and with the heed hilid.
13 Akawaeleza rafiki zake pamoja na Zereshi mkewe. Kisha rafiki zake wenye hekima pamoja na Zereshi mkewe. Kama Modekai, ambaye umeanza kuanguka mbele zake ni wa uzao wa Wayahudi, hautamshinda, bali utandelea kuanguka mbele zake.”
And he teld to Zares, his wijf, and to frendis alle thingis that hadden bifelde to hym. To whom the wise men, whiche he hadde in counsel, and his wijf, answeriden, If Mardochee, bifor whom thou hast bigunne to falle, is of the seed of Jewis, thou schalt not mowe ayenstonde hym, but thou schalt falle in his siyt.
14 Walipokuwa wakiendelea na maongezi, wasimamizi wa mfalme wakamjia Hamani ili aende kwenye karamu aliyoiandaa Esta.
Yit while thei spaken, the oneste seruauntis and chast of the kyng camen, and compelliden hym to go soone to the feeste, which the queen hadde maad redi.
