Esther 6
1 Ní òru ọjọ́ náà ọba kò le è sùn; nítorí náà, ó pàṣẹ kí wọn mú ìwé ìrántí wá, àkọsílẹ̀ ìjọba rẹ̀, wọ́n mú un wá wọ́n sì kà á sí létí.
On that night hath the sleep of the king fled away, and he saith to bring in the book of memorials of the Chronicles, and they are read before the king,
2 Wọ́n rí àkọsílẹ̀ níbẹ̀ pé Mordekai tí sọ àṣírí Bigitana àti Tereṣi, àwọn ìjòyè ọba méjì tí wọ́n ń ṣọ́ ẹnu-ọ̀nà, tí wọ́n ń gbèrò láti pa ọba Ahaswerusi.
and it is found written that Mordecai had declared concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs of the king, of the keepers of the threshold, who sought to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus.
3 Ọba béèrè pé, “Kí ni ọlá àti iyì tí Mordekai ti gbà fún èyí?” Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì dáhùn pé, “Kò tí ì sí ohun tí a ṣe fún un.”
And the king saith, 'What honour and greatness hath been done to Mordecai for this?' And the servants of the king, his ministers, say, 'Nothing hath been done with him.'
4 Ọba wí pé, “Ta ni ó wà nínú àgbàlá?” Nísinsin yìí, Hamani ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọ àgbàlá ìta ààfin ni láti sọ fún ọba nípa síso Mordekai lórí igi tí ó ti rì fún un.
And the king saith, 'Who [is] in the court?' — and Haman hath come in to the outer court of the house of the king, to say to the king to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him —
5 Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì dáhùn pé, “Hamani ni ó wà níbẹ̀ ó dúró sí inú àgbàlá.” Ọba pàṣẹ pé, “Ẹ mú un wọlé wá.”
and the servants of the king say unto him, 'Lo, Haman is standing in the court;' and the king saith, 'Let him come in.'
6 Nígbà tí Hamani wọlé, ọba béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Kí ni kí a ṣe fún ọkùnrin tí inú ọba dùn sí láti bu ọlá fún?” Nísinsin yìí Hamani sì ro èyí fúnra rẹ̀ pé, “Ta ni ó wà níbẹ̀ tí ọba fẹ́ dá lọ́lá ju èmi lọ?”
And Haman cometh in, and the king saith to him, 'What — to do with the man in whose honour the king hath delighted?' And Haman saith in his heart, 'To whom doth the king delight to do honour more than myself?'
7 Nítorí náà Hamani dá ọba lóhùn pé, “Fún ọkùnrin tí inú ọba dùn sí láti dá lọ́lá,
And Haman saith unto the king, 'The man in whose honour the king hath delighted,
8 jẹ́ kí wọn kí ó mú aṣọ ọba èyí tí ọba ń wọ̀ àti ẹṣin tí ọba máa ń gùn, pẹ̀lú ọ̀kan lára adé ọba kí a fi dé e ní orí.
let them bring in royal clothing that the king hath put on himself, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and that the royal crown be put on his head,
9 Jẹ́ kí a fi aṣọ àti ẹṣin lé ọ̀kan lára àwọn ìjòyè ọba tí ó ga jùlọ lọ́wọ́, kí wọn wọ aṣọ náà fún ọkùnrin tí inú ọba dùn sí láti dá lọ́lá, kí wọn sì sìn ín gun ẹṣin jákèjádò gbogbo ìgboro ìlú, kí wọn máa kéde níwájú rẹ̀ pé, ‘Èyí ni a ṣe fún ọkùnrin náà ẹni tí inú ọba dùn sí láti dá lọ́lá!’”
and to give the clothing and the horse into the hand of a man of the heads of the king, the chiefs, and they have clothed the man in whose honour the king hath delighted, and caused him to ride on the horse in a broad place of the city, and called before him: Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'
10 Ọba pàṣẹ fún Hamani pé, “Lọ lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà. Mú aṣọ náà àti ẹṣin kí o sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ṣe sọ fún Mordekai ará a Júù, ẹni tí ó jókòó sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ọba. Má ṣe fi ohunkóhun sílẹ̀ nínú ohun tí o ti yàn.”
And the king saith to Haman, 'Haste, take the clothing and the horse, as thou hast spoken, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting in the gate of the king; there doth not fall a thing of all that thou hast spoken.'
11 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Hamani ṣe mú aṣọ àti ẹṣin náà. Ó fi wọ Mordekai, Mordekai sì wà lórí ẹṣin jákèjádò gbogbo ìgboro ìlú, ó sì ń kéde níwájú rẹ̀ pé, “Èyí ni a ó ṣe fún ọkùnrin náà ẹni tí inú ọba dùn sí láti dá lọ́lá!”
And Haman taketh the clothing, and the horse, and clothed Mordecai, and causeth him to ride in a broad place of the city, and calleth before him, 'Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'
12 Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí Mordekai padà sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ọba. Ṣùgbọ́n Hamani sáré lọ ilé, ó sì bo orí rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́,
And Mordecai turneth back unto the gate of the king, and Haman hath been hastened unto his house mourning, and with covered head,
13 Hamani sì sọ ohun gbogbo tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ sí i fún Sereṣi ìyàwó rẹ̀ àti àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀. Àwọn olùbádámọ̀ràn rẹ̀ àti ìyàwó o rẹ̀ sọ fún un pé, “Níwọ́n ìgbà tí Mordekai ti jẹ́ ẹ̀yà Júù, níwájú ẹni tí ìṣubú rẹ̀ ti bẹ̀rẹ̀, ìwọ kò lè rí ẹ̀yìn in rẹ̀—dájúdájú ìwọ yóò parun!”
and Haman recounteth to Zeresh his wife, and to all his friends, all that hath met him, and his wise men say to him, and Zeresh his wife, 'If Mordecai [is] of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou art not able for him, but dost certainly fall before him.'
14 Bí wọ́n ṣe ń bá a sọ̀rọ̀, àwọn ìwẹ̀fà ọba wọlé, wọ́n sì kán Hamani lójú láti lọ sí ibi àsè tí Esteri ti pèsè.
They are yet speaking with him, and eunuchs of the king have come, and haste to bring in Haman unto the banquet that Esther hath made.
