Esther 3
1 After these things did King Ahashuerosh promote Haman the sonne of Hammedatha the Agagite, and exalted him, and set his seate aboue all the princes that were with him.
Apre evènman sa yo, Wa Assuérus te elve pozisyon a Haman, fis a Hammedatha a, Agagit la. Li te pouse l devan e te etabli otorite li sou tout chèf ki te avèk li yo.
2 And all the Kings seruants that were at the Kings gate, bowed their knees, and reuerenced Haman: for the King had so commanded concerning him: but Mordecai bowed not the knee, neither did reuerence.
Tout sèvitè a wa yo ki te nan pòtay a wa a te bese ba e te bay onè a Haman; paske, se sa wa a te kòmande pa li menm. Men Mardochée pa t bese, ni pa t bay onè.
3 Then the Kings seruants which were at the Kings gate, said vnto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the Kings commandement?
Alò, sèvitè a wa yo te di a Mardochée: “Poukisa w ap dezobeyi lòd a wa a?”
4 And albeit they spake dayly vnto him, yet he would not heare them: therefore they tolde Haman, that they might see how Mordecais matters would stande: for he had tolde them, that he was a Iewe.
Alò, li te rive ke lè yo te pale chak jou avèk li e li te refize koute yo, ke yo te pale Haman pou wè si koz a Mardochée a ta kanpe, paske li te di yo ke se yon Jwif li te ye.
5 And when Haman sawe that Mordecai bowed not the knee vnto him, nor did reuerence vnto him, then Haman was full of wrath.
Lè Haman te wè ke Mardochée pa t bese ni ba li onè, Haman te ranpli avèk laraj.
6 Now he thought it too litle to lay hands onely on Mordecai: and because they had shewed him the people of Mordecai, Haman sought to destroy all the Iewes, that were throughout the whole kingdome of Ahashuerosh, euen the people of Mordecai.
Men li pa t satisfè pou mete men l sou Mardochée sèl, paske yo te fè l konnen pèp Mardochée a. Konsa, Haman te chache detwi tout Jwif yo, pèp Mardochée a, ki te toupatou nan tout wayòm Assuérus la.
7 In the first moneth (that is the moneth Nisan) in the twelft yere of King Ahashuerosh, they cast Pur (that is a lot) before Haman, from day to day, and from moneth to moneth, vnto the twelft moneth, that is the moneth Adar.
Nan premye mwa ki se mwa Nisan an, nan douzyèm ane Wa Assuérus la, bagay Pur a, sa vle di tiraj osò a, te voye devan Haman jou apre jou e soti mwa apre mwa, jis rive nan douzyèm mwa a, sa vle di, mwa Adar a.
8 Then Haman said vnto King Ahashuerosh, There is a people scattered, and dispersed among the people in all the prouinces of thy kingdome, and their lawes are diuers from all people, and they doe not obserue the Kings lawes: therefore it is not the Kings profite to suffer them.
Epi Haman te di a Wa Assuérus: “Genyen yon sèten pèp ki gaye toupatou pami pèp la nan tout pwovens nan wayòm ou an; lwa pa yo pa menm ak tout lòt pèp nan pwovens a wayòm ou an. Yo menm, yo pa swiv lwa a wa a, e konsa, li pa nan enterè a wa a pou kite yo rete la.
9 If it please the King, let it be written that they may he destroyed, and I will pay ten thousand talents of siluer by the handes of them that haue the charge of this businesse to bring it into the Kings treasurie.
Si se plezi a wa a, kite yon dekrè pibliye pou yo ta detwi, e mwen va peye di-mil talan ajan nan men a sila ki akonpli afè wa a, pou mete li nan kès a wa a.”
10 Then the King tooke his ring from his hand and gaue it vnto Haman the sonne of Hammedatha the Agagite the Iewes aduersarie.
Konsa, wa a te retire bag so li nan men l, e te bay li a Haman, fis a Hammedatha a, Agagit la, lènmi a Jwif yo.
11 And the King sayde vnto Haman, Let the siluer be thine, and the people to doe with them as it pleaseth thee.
Wa a te di Haman: “Ajan an se pa w, ni pèp la, pou fè avèk yo sa ou pito.”
12 Then were the Kings scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first moneth, and there was written (according to all that Haman commanded) vnto the Kings officers, and to the captaines that were ouer euery prouince, and to the rulers of euery people, and to euery prouince, according to the writing thereof, and to euery people according to their language: in the name of King Ahashuerosh was it written, and sealed with the Kings ring.
Konsa, grefye a wa yo te rele nan trèzyèm jou nan premye mwa a, e li te ekri jan ke Haman te kòmande a reprezantan a wa a nan tout pwovens yo, a gouvènè ki te sou chak pwovens yo e a chèf a chak pèp, chak pwovens selon ekriti pa li, chak pèp selon langaj pa li, tout sa ekri nan non Wa Assuérus e sele avèk bag so a wa a.
13 And the letters were sent by postes into all the Kings prouinces, to roote out, to kill and to destroy all the Iewes, both yong and olde, children and women, in one day vpon the thirteenth day of the twelft moneth, (which is the moneth Adar) and to spoyle them as a pray.
Lèt yo te voye pa mesaje wa yo nan tout pwovens a wa yo pou detwi, pou touye e anile tout Jwif yo, ni jèn, ni granmoun, fanm avèk timoun, nan yon sèl jou, nan trèzyèm jou a douzyèm mwa a, ki se mwa Adar a, e pou sezi tout byen pa yo kon piyaj.
14 The contents of the writing was, that there shoulde be giuen a commandement in all prouinces, and published vnto all people, that they should be ready against the same day.
Yon kopi a dekrè a te dwe sikile kon lwa nan chak pwovens e te pibliye a tout pèp yo pou yo ta prepare pou jou sa a.
15 And the postes compelled by the Kings commandement went forth, and the commandement was giuen in the palace at Shushan: and the King and Haman sate drinking, but the citie of Shushan was in perplexitie.
Mesaje wa yo te sòti, ranfòse pa dekrè a wa a, pandan dekrè a te pibliye nan sitadèl Suse la. Wa a avèk Haman te chita ansanm pou bwè, men lavil Suse te twouble.
