1 Habeenkaasna boqorkii wuu seexan kari waayay, kolkaasuu amray in loo keeno buuggii taariikhda wakhtigaas, oo waxaa lagu akhriyey boqorka hortiisa.
On that night the king was unable to sleep, so he gave orders to bring the books that recorded memorable deeds, and they were read before the king.
2 Oo waxaa laga dhex helay oo ku qornaa in Mordekay sheegay Bigtaan iyo Teresh oo ahaa boqorka labadiisii midiidin oo ka mid ahaa kuwii iridda dhawri jiray, kuwaas oo doonay inay Boqor Ahashwerus dilaan.
It was found recorded how Mordecai had furnished information regarding Bigthan and Teresh, two of the king’s attendants who guarded the entrance of the palace, who had attempted to kill King Ahasuerus.
3 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu yidhi, Taas aawadeed maxaa maamuus iyo derejo ah oo Mordekay loo sameeyey? Kolkaasaa addoommadii boqorka u adeegi jiray waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Waxba looma samayn.
‘What honour and dignity have been conferred on Mordecai for this?’ the king asked. When the king’s pages who waited on him replied ‘Nothing has been done for him,’
4 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu yidhi, Yaa barxadda jooga? Haddaba Haamaan ayaa yimid guriga boqorka barxaddiisa dibadda ah inuu boqorka kala hadlo in Mordekay lagu deldelo qorigii deldelaadda oo uu isaga u diyaariyey.
the king said, ‘Who is in the court?’ Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king’s house to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
5 Markaasaa boqorka addoommadiisii waxay isaga ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, Haamaan baa taagan barxadda. Kolkaasaa boqorkii yidhi, Ha soo galo.
So the king’s pages said to him, ‘Haman is standing there, in the court.’ The king said, ‘Let him enter.’
6 Markaasuu Haamaan soo galay, oo boqorkii wuxuu ku yidhi, Ninkii boqorku ku farxo inuu maamuuso maxaa loo yeelaa? Haddaba Haamaan wuxuu qalbigiisa iska yidhi, Bal yaa boqorku ku farxi lahaa inuu maamuuso in ka badan intuu i maamuuso?
So Haman entered, and the king said to him, ‘What should be done for the man whom the king wishes to honour?’ Haman said to himself, ‘Whom besides me could the king wish to honour?’
7 Oo Haamaan wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Ninkii boqorku ku farxo inuu maamuuso
So he said to the king, ‘For the man whom the king wishes to honour
8 ha loo keeno dharkii boqornimada oo boqorku xidhan jiray, iyo faraska boqorku fuulo, oo madaxana ha loo saaro taajka boqorka,
let a royal garment be brought, which the king has worn, and the horse on which the king has ridden and on whose head a royal diadem has been placed.
9 oo dharka iyo faraska gacanta ha loo geliyo boqorka amiirradiisa sharafta leh midkood, in loo lebbiso ninkii boqorku ku farxo inuu maamuuso. Oo isaga inta faras la fuushiiyo, jidka magaalada dhexdeeda ha la mariyo, oo hortiisa ha laga naadiyo, Ninkii boqorku ku farxo inuu maamuuso sidaasaa loo yeelaa.
Then let the garment and the horse be placed in charge of one of the king’s noble officials. Let him clothe the man whom the king wishes to honour and let him lead that man on the horse through the city square, proclaiming before him, “This is what is done for the man whom the king wishes to honour.”’
10 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Haamaan ku yidhi, Haddaba soo dhaqso, oo waxaad soo qaaddaa dharkii iyo faraskii aad sheegtay, oo wixii aad sheegtay oo dhan u samee Mordekay oo ah Yuhuudiga fadhiya boqorka iriddiisa; oo wixii aad sheegtay oo dhan yaan waxba ka dhinnaan.
Then the king said to Haman, ‘Make haste and take the garment and the horse, as you have said, and do this to Mordecai the Jew, who sits in the king’s gate. Omit nothing of all you have said.’
11 Kolkaasaa Haamaan wuxuu soo qaaday dharkii iyo faraskii oo wuxuu u lebbisay Mordekay, oo isagoo faraskii fuushan ayuu mariyey jidka magaalada, oo wuxuu hortiisa ka naadiyey, Sidaasaa loo yeelaa ninkii boqorku ku farxo inuu maamuuso.
So Haman took the garment and the horse and clothed Mordecai, and made him ride through the city square and proclaimed before him, ‘This is what is done for the man whom the king wishes to honour.’
12 Haddaba Mordekay wuxuu mar kale ku soo noqday boqorka iriddiisii. Laakiinse Haamaan isagoo murugaysan oo hagoogan ayuu gurigiisii dhaqso u tegey.
Mordecai returned to the king’s gate, but Haman hurried to his house, mourning, with his head covered.
13 Markaasaa Haamaan wuxuu naagtiisii Seresh iyo saaxiibbadiis oo dhan uga sheekeeyey wixii isaga ku dhacay oo dhan. Kolkaasaa raggiisii xigmadda lahaa iyo naagtiisii Seresh waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Mordekay oo aad bilowday inaad hortiisa ku dhacdo, hadduu yahay farcanka Yuhuudda, ka adkaan maysid, laakiinse hubaal hortiisaad ku dhici doontaa.
Haman recounted to Zeresh his wife and to all his friends everything that had happened to him. Then his wise men and Zeresh his wife said to him, ‘If Mordecai before whom you have already been humiliated is of the Jewish people, you can do nothing against him but will surely fall before him.’
14 Oo weliba intay isagii la sii hadlayeen waxaa yimid boqorka midiidinnadiisii, oo u soo dhaqsaday inay haddiiba Haamaan keenaan martiqaadkii Esteer diyaarisay.
While they were still talking with him, the king’s attendants came and quickly took Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
