Esther 5
1 Ní ọjọ́ kẹta Esteri wọ aṣọ ayaba rẹ̀ ó sì dúró sí inú àgbàlá ààfin, ní iwájú gbọ̀ngàn ọba, ọba jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ ìjọba rẹ̀ nínú gbọ̀ngàn, ó kọjú sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ìta.
And on the third day Ester put on her royal apparel, and stood in the court of the Kings palace within, ouer against the Kings house: and the King sate vpon his royal throne in the Kings palace ouer against the gate of the house.
2 Nígbà tí ó rí ayaba Esteri tí ó dúró nínú àgbàlá, inú rẹ̀ yọ́ sí i, ọba sì na ọ̀pá aládé wúrà ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí i. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Esteri ṣe súnmọ́ ọn ó sì fi ọwọ́ kan orí ọ̀pá náà.
And when the King saw Ester the Queene standing in the court, shee founde fauour in his sight: and the King held out the golden scepter that was in his hand: so Ester drewe neere, and touched the toppe of the scepter.
3 Nígbà náà ni ọba béèrè pé, “Kí ni ó dé, ayaba Esteri? Kí ni o fẹ́? Bí ó tilẹ̀ ṣe títí dé ìdajì ọba mi, àní, a ó fi fún ọ.”
Then saide the King vnto her, What wilt thou, Queene Ester? and what is thy request? it shall be euen giuen thee to the halfe of ye kingdome.
4 Esteri sì dáhùn pé, “Bí ó bá tẹ́ ọba lọ́rùn, jẹ́ kí ọba, pẹ̀lú Hamani, wá lónìí sí ibi àsè tí èmi ti pèsè fún un.”
Then saide Ester, If it please the King, let the King and Haman come this day vnto the banket, that I haue prepared for him.
5 Ọba sì wí pé, “ẹ mú Hamani wá kíákíá, nítorí kí a lè ṣe ohun tí Esteri béèrè fún un.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba àti Hamani lọ sí ibi àsè tí Esteri ti pèsè.
And the King sayd, Cause Haman to make haste that he may doe as Ester hath sayde. So the King and Haman came to the banket that Ester had prepared.
6 Bí wọ́n ṣe ń mu wáìnì, ọba tún béèrè lọ́wọ́ Esteri, “Báyìí pé: kí ni ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ? A ó sì fi fún ọ. Kí ni ìwọ ń béèrè fún? Àní bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ ìdajì ìjọba mi, a ó fi fún ọ.”
And the King sayd vnto Ester at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, that it may be giuen thee? and what is thy request? it shall euen be performed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
7 Esteri sì dáhùn, “Ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi àti ìbéèrè mi ni èyí.
Then answered Ester, and sayd, My petition and my request is,
8 Bí ọba bá fi ojúrere rẹ̀ fún mi, tí ó bá sì tẹ́ ọba lọ́rùn láti gba ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi àti láti mú ìbéèrè mi ṣẹ, jẹ́ kí ọba àti Hamani wá ní ọ̀la sí ibi àsè tí èmi yóò pèsè fún wọn. Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò dáhùn ìbéèrè ọba.”
If I haue found fauour in the sight of the King, and if it please the King to giue me my petition, and to perfourme my request, let the King and Haman come to the banket that I shall prepare for them, and I will doe to morowe according to the Kings saying.
9 Hamani jáde lọ ní ọjọ́ náà pẹ̀lú ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn. Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ó rí Mordekai ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ọba, ó wòye pé kò dìde tàbí kí ó bẹ̀rù ní iwájú òun, inú bí i gidigidi sí Mordekai.
Then went Haman forth the same day ioyfull and with a glad heart. But when Haman sawe Mordecai in the Kings gate, that he stoode not vp, nor moued for him, then was Haman full of indignation at Mordecai.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n, Hamani kó ara rẹ̀ ní ìjánu, ó lọ sí ilé. Ó pe àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ jọ àti Sereṣi ìyàwó rẹ̀
Neuerthelesse Haman refrayned himselfe: and when he came home, he sent, and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
11 Hamani gbéraga sí wọn nípa títóbi ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, púpọ̀ àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àti gbogbo ọ̀nà tí ọba ti bu ọlá fún un àti bí ó ṣe gbé e ga ju àwọn ọlọ́lá àti àwọn ìjòyè tókù lọ.
And Haman tolde them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the King had promoted him, and how that he had set him aboue the princes and seruants of the King.
12 Hamani tún fi kún un pé, “Kì í ṣe èyí nìkan. Èmi nìkan ni ayaba Esteri pè láti sin ọba wá sí ibi àsè tí ó sè. Bákan náà, ó sì tún ti pè mí pẹ̀lú ọba ní ọ̀la.
Haman sayde moreouer, Yea, Ester the Queene did let no man come in with the King to the banket that she had prepared, saue me: and to morowe am I bidden vnto her also with the King.
13 Ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo èyí kò ì tí ì tẹ́ mi lọ́rùn níwọ̀n ìgbà tí mo bá sì ń rí Mordekai ará a Júù náà tí ó ń jókòó ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ọba.”
But al this doth nothing auaile me, as long as I see Mordecai ye Iewe sitting at ye Kings gate.
14 Ìyàwó rẹ̀ Sereṣi àti àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ wí fún un pé, “Ri igi kan, kí ó ga tó ìwọ̀n ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ bàtà márùn le láàdọ́rin, kí o sì sọ fún ọba ní òwúrọ̀ ọ̀la kí ó gbé Mordekai rọ̀ sórí i rẹ̀. Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò bá ọba lọ sí ibi àsè pẹ̀lú ayọ̀.” Èrò yí dùn mọ́ Hamani nínú, ó sì ri igi náà.
Then sayde Zeresh his wife and all his friends vnto him, Let them make a tree of fiftie cubites hie, and to morowe speake thou vnto the King, that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then shalt thou goe ioyfully with the King vnto the banket. And the thing pleased Haman, and he caused to make the tree.
