Ester 6
1 Uti den samma nattene kunde Konungen intet sofva, och lät hemta Chrönicor och Historier; och de vordo läsna för Konungenom.
In the night that it fled [the] sleep of the king and he said to bring [the] book of the reminders [the] words of the days and they were read aloud before the king.
2 Då råkade man der uppå, der skrifvet var, huru Mardechai hade gjort förvaring, att de två Konungens kamererare, Bigthan och Theres, som vaktade vid dörrena, hade i sinnet slå uppå Konungen Ahasveros.
And it was found recorded that he had told Mordecai on Bigthana and Teresh two of [the] eunuchs of the king from [the] guards of the threshold who they had sought to stretch out a hand on the king Ahasuerus.
3 Och Konungen sade: Hvad hafve vi gjort Mardechai till äro och lön derföre? Då sade Konungens svenner, som honom tjente; Honom är intet skedt.
And he said the king what? has it been done honor and greatness for Mordecai on this and they said [the] young men of the king servants his not it was done with him anything.
4 Och Konungen sade: Ho är der i gårdenom? Ty Haman var kommen i gården, utanför Konungshuset, att han skulle säga Konungenom om Mardechai, att han måtte hänga i galganom, som han honom tillredt hade.
And he said the king who? [is] in the court and Haman he had come to [the] court of [the] house of the king outer to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows which he had prepared for him.
5 Och Konungens svenner sade till honom: Si, Haman står ute på gårdenom. Konungen sade: Låt honom komma in.
And they said [the] servants of the king to him there! Haman [is] standing in the court and he said the king let him come.
6 Då Haman kom in, sade Konungen till honom: Hvad skall man göra dem manne, som Konungen gerna ära vill? Men Haman tänkte i sitt hjerta: Hvem skulle Konungen gerna vilja göra äro, utan mig?
And he came Haman and he said to him the king what? [is] to do for the man whom the king he delights in honor his and he said Haman in heart his to whom? will he delight the king to do honor excess more than me.
7 Och Haman sade till Konungen: Den man, som Konungen gerna vill ära,
And he said Haman to the king a man whom the king he delights in honor his.
8 Honom skall man hafva fram, och kläda uppå honom Konungslig kläder, de Konungen plägar draga, och den häst, som Konungen plägar uppå rida, och att man sätter en Konungslig krono på hans hufvud;
Let people bring clothing of royalty which he has worn on him the king and a horse which he has ridden on it the king and which it has been put a head-dress of royalty on head its.
9 Och man må få den klädningen och hästen uti en Konungens Förstas hand, att han ikläder den man, som Konungen gerna ära vill, och förer honom på hästenom öfver stadsgatorna, och låter ropa framför honom: Så skall man göra dem, som Konungen gerna ära vill.
And let them put the clothing and the horse on [the] hand of a man one of [the] officials of the king the nobles and they will clothe the man whom the king he delights in honor his and they will make ride him on the horse in [the] open place of the city and they will proclaim before him thus it will be done for the man whom the king he delights in honor his.
10 Konungen sade till Haman: Skynda dig, och tag klädningen och hästen, såsom du sagt hafver, och gör alltså med dem Judanom Mardechai, som för Konungens dörr sitter; och låt intet fattas af allt det du sagt hafver.
And he said the king to Haman hurry take the clothing and the horse just as you have said and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits at [the] gate of the king may not you make fall a word from all that you have said.
11 Så tog Haman klädningen och hästen, och klädde på Mardechai, och förde honom på stadsgatone, och ropade framför honom: Så skall man göra dem manne, som Konungen gerna ära vill.
And he took Haman the clothing and the horse and he clothed Mordecai and he made ride him in [the] open place of the city and he proclaimed before him thus it will be done for the man whom the king he delights in honor his.
12 Och Mardechai kom igen inför Konungens dörr; men Haman skyndade sig hem, och sörjde med skyldt hufvud;
And he returned Mordecai to [the] gate of the king and Haman he hurried himself to house his mourning and covered of head.
13 Och förtäljde sine hustru Seres, och allom sinom vännom, allt det honom händt hade. Då sade till honom hans vise, och hans hustru Seres: Är Mardechai af Juda säd, för hvilkom du hafver begynt att falla, så hafver du ingen magt med honom, utan du måste falla för honom.
And he recounted Haman to Zeresh wife his and to all friends his all that it had happened to him and they said to him wise [men] his and Zeresh wife his if [is] one of [the] offspring of the Jews Mordecai whom you have begun to fall before him not you will prevail to him for certainly you will fall before him.
14 Vid de ännu med honom talade, kommo Konungens kamererare dertill, och hastade på Haman, till att komma till måltidena, som Esther tillredt hade.
Still they [were] speaking with him and [the] eunuchs of the king they arrived and they made haste to bring Haman to the feast which she had prepared Esther.
