Esther 6
1 The king passed that night without sleep, and so he ordered the histories and chronicles of former times to be brought to him. And when they were reading them before him,
To na aqum loe siangpahrang iip thai ai; to pongah dung kroekhaih cabu to lak o moe, siangpahrang hmaa ah kroek pae o.
2 they came to that place where it had been written, how Mordecai had reported the treachery of Bigthan and Teresh the eunuchs, who desired to cut the throat of king Artaxerxes.
To cabu thungah, khongkha toep siangpahrang toksah angraeng, Bigthana hoi Teresh hnik mah, Ahasuerus siangpahrang hum hanah pacaeng ih lok to Mordekai mah taphong, tiah tarik ih ca to a hnuk.
3 When the king had heard this, he said, “What honor and reward has Mordecai been given for this fidelity?” His servants and ministers said to him, “He has received no compensation at all.”
Siangpahrang mah, Hae tiah kaom hmuen to taphong pongah, kawbaktih pakoehhaih hoi khingyahaih maw Mordekai hanah sak pae o? tiah a dueng. To naah a taengah kaom a toksah tamnanawk mah, Anih han sak pae ih hmuen tidoeh om ai, tiah a naa o.
4 And immediately the king said, “Who is in the atrium?” For, you see, Haman was entering the inner atrium of the king’s house to suggest to the king that he should order Mordecai to be hanged on the gallows, which had been prepared for him.
Siangpahrang mah, Imthung longhmaa ah mi maw kaom? tiah a naa. To natheum ah Haman loe siangpahrang im akunhaih tasa longhmaa ah oh; a sak ih kasang parai tung pongah Mordekai bangh hanah siangpahrang khaeah lokthuih hanah angzoh.
5 The servants answered, “Haman is standing in the atrium.” And the king said, “Let him enter.”
Siangpahrang ih tamnanawk mah, siangpahrang khaeah, Khenah, longhmaa ah Haman angdoet, tiah a naa o. Siangpahrang mah, Athung ah angzo nasoe, tiah a naa.
6 And when he had entered, he said to him, “What ought to be done for the man whom the king wishes to honor?” But Haman, thinking in his heart and supposing that the king would honor no one else but himself,
To pongah Haman loe athung ah angzoh. Siangpahrang mah anih khaeah, siangpahrang mah pakoeh han koeh ih kami hanah tih hmuen maw sak pae nahaeloe hoi tih, tiah a naa. Haman loe, Kai ai ah loe siangpahrang mah pakoeh han ih kami mi maw om tih? tiah a poek.
7 answered, “The man whom the king wishes to honor,
Haman mah siangpahrang khaeah, Siangpahrang mah pakoeh han koeh ih kami han ah loe,
8 ought to be clothed with the king’s apparel, and be set upon the horse that the king rides, and receive the royal crown upon his head.
siangpahrang mah angkhuk ih kahni hoi siangpahrang mah angthueng ih hrang to la ah loe, a lu nuiah angraeng lumuek to angmueksak oh;
9 And let the first of the king’s rulers and sovereigns hold his horse, and, as they advance through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say, ‘Thus shall he be honored, whom the king decides to honor.’”
kampha siangpahrang ih kahni hoi hrang to oep om koek siangpahrang ih angraengnawk khaeah paek nasoe. Nihcae mah siangpahrang mah pakoeh han koeh ih kami to siangpahrang ih kahni hoiah pathoep o nasoe loe, hrang angthueng o sak pacoengah, vangpui loklam ah siangpahrang mah pakoeh han koeh ih kami loe hae tiah sak pae han oh! tiah a hmaa ah hanghaih hoiah caeh o haih nasoe, tiah a naa.
10 And the king said to him, “Hurry, take the robe and the horse, and do as you have said to Mordecai the Jew, who sits in front of the gate of the palace. Be careful not to omit any of those things which you have mentioned.”
To naah siangpahrang mah, Haman khaeah, siangpahrang ih kahni hoi hrang to karangah la ah loe, na thuih ih lok baktih toengah siangpahrang khongkha toep Judah kami Mordekai hanah sah pae ah; na thuih ih loknawk boih aek ai ah sah ah, tiah a naa.
11 And so Haman took the robe and the horse, and arraying Mordecai in the street of the city, and setting him on the horse, he went before him and cried out, “He is worthy of this honor, whom the king has decided to honor.”
Haman mah siangpahrang ih kahni hoiah hrang to lak, Mordekai to angkhuksak pacoengah, anih to hrang nuiah angthuengsak moe, vangpui thung ih loklam ah a caeh haih, anih hmaa ah, Siangpahrang mah pakoeh han koeh ih kami loe hae tiah sak han oh, tiah a thuih.
12 And Mordecai returned to the palace door. And Haman hurried to go to his house, mourning and hiding his head.
To pacoengah Mordekai loe siangpahrang ih khongkha taengah amlaem let. Toe Haman loe angmah im ah karangah cawnh, palungset moe, a lu to khuk hmoek.
13 And he explained to Zeresh his wife and to his friends all that had happened to him. And the wise men, whom he held in counsel, and his wife, answered him, “If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is from the offspring of the Jews, you will not be able to withstand him, but you will fall in his sight.”
A zu Zeresh hoi angmah ih ampuinawk boih khaeah a tongh ih hmuen kawngnawk to a thuih pae. To naah palungha kaminawk hoi a zu Zeresh mah anih khaeah, Nang amtimsak kami Mordekai loe Judah acaeng tangtang ah om nahaeloe, anih to na pazawk mak ai, nang loe anih khaeah nam tim tih boeh! tiah a naa o.
14 As they were still speaking, the king’s eunuchs arrived and compelled him to go quickly to the feast, which the queen had prepared.
To tiah anih khaeah lok a thuih pae o li naah, siangpahrang ih toksah angraengnawk to angzoh o moe, Haman to Esther mah sak ih buhraenghaih poihkung ah karangah caeh o haih.
