Esther 5
1 And it cometh to pass on the third day, that Esther putteth on royalty, and standeth in the inner-court of the house of the king over-against the house of the king, and the king is sitting on his royal throne, in the royal-house, over-against the opening of the house,
Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, dia niakanjo akanjo fiandrianana Estera ka nitsangana teo amin’ ny kianja anatiny amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka, dia teo anoloan’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka, ary ny mpanjaka nipetraka teo ambonin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakana tao an-dapa, tandrifin’ ny vavahadin’ ny trano.
2 and it cometh to pass, at the king's seeing Esther the queen standing in the court, she hath received grace in his eyes, and the king holdeth out to Esther the golden sceptre that [is] in his hand, and Esther draweth near, and toucheth the top of the sceptre.
Ary nony hitan’ ny mpanjaka fa, indro, Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka nitsangana teo an-kianja, dia nahita fitia teo imasony izy; ary ny mpanjaka nanondro an’ i Estera tamin’ ny tehim-bolamena izay teny an-tànany. Dia nanatona kosa Estera ka nanendry ny loha-tehina.
3 And the king saith to her, 'What — to thee Esther, O queen? and what thy request? unto the half of the kingdom — and it is given to thee.'
Dia hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona no angatahinao, ry Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, ary inona no tadiavinao? Fa na dia hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny fanjakana aza, dia homena anao izany.
4 And Esther saith, 'If unto the king [it be] good, the king doth come in, and Haman, to-day, unto the banquet that I have made for him;'
Dia namaly Estera ka nanao hoe: Raha sitraky ny mpanjaka aoka, ny mpanjaka sy Hamana hankao anio amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboariko ho azy.
5 and the king saith, 'Haste ye Haman — to do the word of Esther;' and the king cometh in, and Haman, unto the banquet that Esther hath made.
Dia hoy ny mpanjaka: Asaovy avy faingana Hamana mba hanao araka ny tenin’ i Estera. Ary ny mpanjaka sy Hamana dia nankeo amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboarin’ i Estera.
6 And the king saith to Esther, during the banquet of wine, 'What [is] thy petition? and it is given to thee; and what thy request? unto the half of the kingdom — and it is done.'
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka tamin’ i Estera teo am-pisotroan-divay: Inona no angatahinao? Fa homena anao izany. Ary inona no tadiavinao? Fa na dia hatramin’ ny antsasaky ny fanjakana aza, dia homena Izany.
7 And Esther answereth and saith, 'My petition and my request [is]:
Dia namaly Estera ka nanao hoe: Izao no angatahiko sy tadiaviko:
8 if I have found grace in the eyes of the king, and if unto the king [it be] good, to give my petition, and to perform my request, the king doth come, and Haman, unto the banquet that I make for them, and to-morrow I do according to the word of the king.'
Raha mahita fitia eto imason’ ny mpanjaka aho, ka sitraky ny mpanjaka ny hanome izay angatahiko sy hanome izay tadiaviko, dia aoka ny mpanjaka sy Hamana hankao amin’ ny fanasana izay hamboariko ho azy indray; ary rahampitso dia hanao araka ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka ihany aho.
9 And Haman goeth forth on that day rejoicing and glad in heart, and at Haman's seeing Mordecai in the gate of the king, and he hath not risen nor moved for him, then is Haman full of fury against Mordecai.
Dia nivoaka tamin’ izany andro izany Hamana, sady faly sy ravoravo ny fony; fa raha nahita an’ i Mordekay teo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka izy, fa, indro, tsy mba nitsangana na nihetsika hitsaoka azy akory dia feno fahatezerana taminy izy.
10 And Haman forceth himself, and cometh in unto his house, and sendeth, and bringeth in his friends, and Zeresh his wife,
Kanefa nanindry fo ihany Hamana ka lasa nody tany an-tranony aloha; dia naniraka naka ny sakaizany sy Zaresy vadiny izy.
11 and Haman recounteth to them the glory of his wealth, and the abundance of his sons, and all that with which the king made him great, and with which he lifted him up above the heads and servants of the king.
Ary nambaran’ i Hamana tamin’ ireo ny voninahitry ny hareny sy ny hamaroan’ ny zanany mbamin’ Izay voninahitra rehetra nomen’ ny mpanjaka azy sy ny nanandratany azy ho ambony noho ny mpanapaka sy ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjaka.
12 And Haman saith, 'Yea, Esther the queen brought none in with the king, unto the feast that she made, except myself, and also for to-morrow I am called to her, with the king,
Ary hoy koa Hamana: He! Estera, vadin’ ny mpanjaka, aza tsy naka olona afa-tsy izaho ihany hiaraka amin’ ny mpanjaka ho amin’ ny fanasana izay efa namboariny; fa nasainy hiaraka amin’ ny mpanjaka aho koa rahampitso.
13 and all this is not profitable to me, during all the time that I am seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting in the gate of the king.'
Nefa na dia izany rehetra izany aza, dia tsy mbola mahafa-po ahy ihany, raha mbola mahita an’ i Mordekay Jiosy mipetraka eo am-bavahadin’ ny mpanjaka aho.
14 And Zeresh his wife saith to him, and all his friends, 'Let them prepare a tree, in height fifty cubits, and in the morning speak to the king, and they hang Mordecai on it, and go thou in with the king unto the banquet rejoicing;' and the thing is good before Haman, and he prepareth the tree.
Dia hoy Zaresy vadiny sy ny sakaizany rehetra taminy: Aoka hanaovana hazo, dimam-polo hakiho ny hahavony, ary raha maraina dia lazao amin’ ny mpanjaka mba hahantona eo Mordekay; fa mandehana miaraka amin’ ny mpanjaka amin’ ny hafaliana ho any amin’ ny fanasana ianao. Ary sitrak’ i Hamana izany zavatra izany, ka dia nampanao ilay hazo izy.
