Ester 6
1 Nang gabing iyon hindi makatulog ang hari. Inutusan niya ang kanyang mga lingkod na dalhin ang mga talaan ng mga pangyayari sa kanyang paghahari, at ito ay basahin nang malakas sa harap ng hari.
That night the king was unable to get any sleep; and he sent for the books of the records; and while some one was reading them to the king,
2 At natagpuang nakatala roon na isinumbong ni Mordecai ang tungkol kina Bigthana at Teres, dalawa sa mga opisyal ng hari na nagbabantay sa pasukan, na siyang sinubukang saktan si Haring Assuero.
It came out that it was recorded in the book how Mordecai had given word of the designs of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's servants, keepers of the door, by whom an attack on the king had been designed.
3 Nagtanong ang hari, “Anong karangalan at pagkilala ang nagawa kay Mordecai sa paggawa nito?” Pagkatapos sinabi ng kanyang mga kabataang lalaki, na lingkod niya, “Walang anumang nagawa para sa kanya.”
And the king said, What honour and reward have been given to Mordecai for this? Then the servants who were waiting on the king said, Nothing has been done for him.
4 At sinabi ng hari, “Sino ang nasa patyo?” Ngayon si Haman ay pumasok sa panlabas na patyo ng bahay ng hari upang kausapin siya tungkol sa pagbitay kay Mordecai sa bitayang inihanda niya para sa kanya.
Then the king said, Who is in the outer room? Now Haman had come into the outer room to get the king's authority for the hanging of Mordecai on the pillar which he had made ready for him.
5 Sinabi ng mga lingkod ng hari sa kanya, “Si Haman ay nakatayo sa patyo.” Sinabi ng hari, “Hayaan siyang pumasok.”
And the king's servants said to him, See, Haman is waiting in the outer room. And the king said, Let him come in.
6 Nang pumasok si Haman, sinabi ng hari sa kanya, “Anong dapat gawin sa lalaki na kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari?” Ngayon sinabi ni Haman sa kanyang puso, “Sino ang kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari na higit kaysa sa akin?”
So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What is to be done to the man whom the king has delight in honouring? Then the thought came into Haman's mind, Whom, more than myself, would the king have pleasure in honouring?
7 Sinabi ni Haman sa hari, “Sa lalaki na kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari,
And Haman, answering the king, said, For the man whom the king has delight in honouring,
8 hayaang dalhin ang mga maharalikang balabal, mga balabal na isinuot ng hari, at isang kabayong sinakyan ng hari at sa ulo nito ay ang sagisag ng hari.
Let them take the robes which the king generally puts on, and the horse on which the king goes, and the crown which is on his head:
9 Pagkatapos payagang ibigay ang mga balabal at ang kabayo sa isa sa pinakamarangal na opisyal ng hari. Hayaan silang bihisan ang lalaking kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari, at hayaang pasakayin siya sa kabayong lilibot sa mga lansangan ng bayan. Hayaang ipahayag nila sa harapan niya, 'Ganito ang ginagawa sa kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari!”'
And let the robes and the horse be given to one of the king's most noble captains, so that they may put them on the man whom the king has delight in honouring, and let him go on horseback through the streets of the town, with men crying out before him, So let it be done to the man whom the king has delight in honouring.
10 Pagkatapos sinabi ng hari kay Haman, “Magmadali, kunin mo ang mga balabal at ang kabayo, gaya ng iyong sinabi, at gawin mo iyon kay Mordecai na Judio na nakaupo sa tarangkahan ng hari. Huwag mabigo sa isa mang bagay na iyong sinabi.”
Then the king said to Haman, Go quickly, and take the robes and the horse, as you have said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, who is seated at the king's doorway: see that you do everything as you have said.
11 Pagkatapos kinuha ni Haman ang mga balabal at ang kabayo. Binihisan niya si Mordecai at pinasakay sa kabayo patungo sa mga lansangan ng siyudad. Ipinahayag sa unahan niya, “Ganito ang ginagawa sa tao na kinalulugdang parangalan ng hari!”
Then Haman took the robes and the horse, and dressing Mordecai in the robes, he made him go on horseback through the streets of the town, crying out before him, So let it be done to the man whom the king has delight in honouring.
12 Bumalik si Mordecai sa tarangkahan ng hari. Ngunit nagmadali si Haman sa kanyang bahay, nagluluksa, na may takip ang ulo.
And Mordecai came back to the king's doorway. But Haman went quickly back to his house, sad and with his head covered.
13 Sinabi ni Haman kay Zeres na kanyang asawa at sa lahat niyang mga kaibigan ang lahat ng bagay na nangyari sa kanya. Pagkatapos sinabi sa kanya ng kanyang mga kalalakihang kilala sa kanilang karunungan, at Zeres na kanyang asawa, “Kapag si Mordecai, ang tao na siyang nagsimula kang bumagsak, ay Judio, hindi mo siya matatalo, ngunit ikaw ay tiyak na babagsak sa harap niya.
And Haman gave his wife Zeresh and all his friends an account of what had taken place. Then his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, If Mordecai, who is starting to get the better of you, is of the seed of the Jews, you will not be able to do anything against him, but you will certainly go down before him.
14 Habang nakikipag-usap sila sa kanya, dumating ang mga opisyal ng hari. Nagmadaling dinala si Haman sa handaang inihanda ni Esther.
While they were still talking, the king's servants came to take Haman to the feast which Esther had made ready.
