Esther 7
1 So the king and Haman came to take wine with Esther the queen.
Kad nu ķēniņš un Amans nāca pie ķēniņienes Esteres uz dzīrēm,
2 And the king said to Esther again on the second day, while they were drinking, What is your prayer, Queen Esther? for it will be given to you; and what is your request? for it will be done, even to the half of my kingdom.
Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Esteri atkal otrā dienā vīnu dzerot: ko tu lūdzi, ķēniņiene Estere, tas tev taps dots, un ko tu prasi, arī līdz pusvalstij, tam būs notikt.
3 Then Esther the queen, answering, said, If I have your approval, O king, and if it is the king's pleasure, let my life be given to me in answer to my prayer, and my people at my request:
Tad ķēniņiene Estere atbildēja: ja es, ķēniņ, žēlastību esmu atradusi tavās acīs, un ja ķēniņam patīk, tad dod man manu dzīvību uz manu lūgšanu un manus ļaudis uz manu prasīšanu.
4 For we are given up, I and my people, to destruction and death and to be cut off. If we had been taken as men-servants and women-servants for a price, I would have said nothing, for our trouble is little in comparison with the king's loss.
Jo mēs esam pārdoti, es un mani ļaudis, ka topam izdeldēti, nokauti un nomaitāti. Ja mēs būtu pārdoti par kalpiem un kalponēm, tad es būtu klusu cietusi; jo nelaime neatsver ķēniņa traucējumu.
5 Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, Who is he and where is he who has had this evil thought in his heart?
Tad ķēniņš Ahasverus atbildēja un sacīja uz ķēniņieni Esteri: kas tas tāds un kur ir tas, kas to savā prātā ir apņēmies, tā darīt?
6 And Esther said, Our hater and attacker is this evil Haman. Then Haman was full of fear before the king and the queen.
Tad Estere atbildēja: tas pretinieks un ienaidnieks ir šis niknais Amans. Tad Amans iztrūcinājās ķēniņa un ķēniņienes priekšā.
7 And the king in his wrath got up from the feast and went into the garden: and Haman got to his feet to make a prayer for his life to Esther the queen: for he saw that the king's purpose was evil against him.
Un ķēniņš cēlās savā bardzībā no dzīrēm un gāja uz tā nama dārzu. Un Amans stāvēja un meklēja savu dzīvību no ķēniņienes Esteres, jo viņš redzēja, ka ķēniņš par viņu bija nodomājis nelaimi.
8 Then the king came back from the garden into the room where they had been drinking; and Haman was stretched out on the seat where Esther was. Then the king said, Is he taking the queen by force before my eyes in my house? And while the words were on the king's lips, they put a cloth over Haman's face.
Un ķēniņš griezās atpakaļ no nama dārza uz dzīru namu, un Amans bija nokritis pie tā sēdekļa, uz kā Estere sēdēja. Tad ķēniņš sacīja: vai viņš arī pie ķēniņienes varas darbu grib darīt pie manis namā? Kad šis vārds no ķēniņa mutes izgāja, tad Amanam aizsedza galvu.
9 Then Harbonah, one of the unsexed servants waiting before the king, said, See, the pillar fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who said a good word for the king, is still in its place in Haman's house. Then the king said, Put him to death by hanging him on it.
Un Arbonus, viens no ķēniņa kambarjunkuriem, sacīja: redzi, Amana namā stāv koks piecdesmit olektis augstumā, ko Amans cēlis priekš Mardakaju, kas runājis labu priekš ķēniņa. Tad ķēniņš sacīja: pakariet viņu pie tā.
10 So Haman was put to death by hanging him on the pillar he had made for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath became less.
Tad tie pakāra Amanu pie tā koka, ko tas Mardakajam bija licis uzcelt. Tad ķēniņa bardzība nostājās.
