< Esther 7 >

1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
I tako doðe car i Aman na objed carici Jestiri.
2 The king said again to Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, "What is your petition, queen Esther? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed."
I reèe car Jestiri opet drugi dan napivši se vina: šta želiš, carice Jestiro? daæe ti se; i šta moliš? ako je i do polovine carstva, biæe.
3 Then Esther the queen answered, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
Tada odgovori carica Jestira i reèe: ako sam našla milost pred tobom, care, i ako je caru ugodno, neka mi se pokloni život moj na moju želju i narod moj na moju molbu.
4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondservants and bondmaids, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king's loss."
Jer smo prodani ja i moj narod da nas potru, pobiju i istrijebe. Da smo prodani da budemo sluge i sluškinje, muèala bih, premda neprijatelj ne bi mogao naknaditi štete caru.
5 Then King Achashyerosh said to Esther the queen, "Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?"
A car Asvir progovori i reèe carici Jestiri: ko je taj? i gdje je taj koji se usudio tako èiniti?
6 Esther said, "An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman." Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
A Jestira reèe: protivnik i neprijatelj ovaj je zlikovac Aman. A Aman se uplaši od cara i od carice.
7 The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.
Tada car gnjevan usta od vina i otide u vrt kod dvora, a Aman osta da moli za život svoj caricu Jestiru, jer vidje da je car naumio zlo po nj.
8 Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he even assault the queen in front of me in the house?" As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
Potom se car vrati iz vrta dvorskoga u kuæu gdje bješe pio vino; a Aman bješe pao na odar gdje sjeðaše Jestira. I car reèe: eda li æe i caricu osramotiti kod mene u kuæi? Èim ta rijeè izide iz usta carevijeh, pokriše lice Amanu.
9 Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king said, "Look, the gallows seventy-three feet eight inches high, which Haman has made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing at Haman's house." The king said, "Hang him on it."
I Arvona, jedan od dvorana carevijeh, reèe: evo i vješala što je naèinio Aman za Mardoheja koji je govorio dobro po cara stoje kod kuæe Amanove, visoka pedeset lakata. I reèe car: objesite ga na njih.
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.
I tako objesiše Amana na vješala koja bješe pripravio Mardoheju. I gnjev carev utiša se.
