Esther 6
1 On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
Ону ноћ не могаше цар спавати, и заповеди те му донесоше књигу од знаменитих догађаја, дневнике, те је читаше цару.
2 And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
И нађе се записано како је Мардохеј проказао за Вихтана и Тереса, два дворанина, који чуваху стражу на прагу, да гледају да дигну руке на цара Асвира.
3 And the king said, What honor and dignity has been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered to him, There is nothing done for him.
Тада рече цар: Каква је част и како је добро учињено Мардохеју за то? А момци цареви, слуге његове, рекоше: Није му учињено ништа.
4 And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king’s house, to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
А цар рече: Ко је у трему? А Аман беше дошао у спољашњи трем двора царевог да каже цару да се обеси Мардохеј на вешала која му је приправио.
5 And the king’s servants said to him, Behold, Haman stands in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
А момци цареви рекоше му: Гле, Аман стоји у трему. А цар рече: Нека дође.
6 So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honor? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honor more than to myself?
И Аман дође, а цар му рече: Шта треба учинити човеку ког цар хоће да прослави? А Аман рече у себи: Кога би цар хтео прославити ако не мене?
7 And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delights to honor,
И рече Аман цару: Кога цар хоће да прослави,
8 Let the royal apparel be brought which the king uses to wear, and the horse that the king rides on, and the crown royal which is set on his head:
Треба донети царско одело које цар носи, и довести коња на коме цар јаше, и метнути му на главу венац царски;
9 And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that they may array the man with whom the king delights to honor, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor.
И одело и коња треба дати коме између највећих кнезова царевих да обуку човека оног ког цар хоће да прослави, па да га проведу на коњу по улицама градским и вичу пред њим: Овако бива човеку кога цар хоће да прослави.
10 Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as you have said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sits at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that you have spoken.
Тада рече цар Аману: Брже узми одело и коња као што рече, и учини тако Мардохеју, Јудејцу који седи на вратима царевим; немој изоставити ништа што си рекао.
11 Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor.
И узе Аман одело и коња, и обуче Мардохеја и проведе га на коњу по улицама градским вичући пред њим: Овако бива човеку кога цар хоће да прослави.
12 And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But Haman hurried to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
Потом се врати Мардохеј на врата царева, а Аман брже отиде кући својој жалостан и покривене главе.
13 And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife to him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom you have begun to fall, you shall not prevail against him, but shall surely fall before him.
И приповеди Аман Сереси, жени својој и свим пријатељима својим све што му се догоди. Тада му рекоше мудраци његови и Сереса жена његова: Кад је од јудејског семена Мардохеј пред којим си почео падати, нећеш му одолети, него ћеш пасти пред њим.
14 And while they were yet talking with him, came the king’s chamberlains, and hurried to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
И док они још говораху с њим, дођоше дворани цареви и брже одведоше Амана на обед који зготови Јестира.
