< Ester 7 >

1 Napan ngarud ti ari ken ni Haman iti padaya ni Ester.
So the King and Haman came to banket with the Queene Ester.
2 Iti daytoy a maikadua nga aldaw, kabayatan nga idasdasarda ti arak, kinuna ti ari kenni Ester, “Ania ti dawatmo, Reyna Ester? Maipaayto daytoy kenka. Ania ti kiddawmo? Agingga iti kagudua ti pagarian, maipaayto daytoy.”
And the King said againe vnto Ester on the second day at the banket of wine, What is thy petition, Queene Ester, that it may be giue thee? and what is thy request? It shalbe euen perfourmed vnto the halfe of the kingdome.
3 Ket simmungbat ni Reyna Ester, “No nakasarakak iti pabor kadagiti matam, ari, ken no makaay-ayo daytoy kenka, ipalubosmo a maited kaniak ti biagko—daytoy ti dawatko, ken kiddawek met daytoy para kadagiti tattaok.
And Ester the Queene answered, and said, If I haue found fauour in thy sight, O King, and if it please the King, let my life be giuen me at my petition, and my people at my request.
4 Ta nailakokami, siak ken dagiti tattaok, tapno madadael, mapapatay, ken mapukaw. No nailakokami laeng iti pannakatagabu, a kas tagabu a lallaki ken babbai, agulimekak latta koman ta saan nga umno a rengrengen ti ari gapu laeng iti kastoy a riribuk.”
For we are solde, I, and my people, to be destroyed, to be slayne and to perish: but if we were solde for seruants, and for handmaides, I woulde haue helde my tongue: although the aduersarie could not recompense the Kings losse.
5 Ket kinuna ni Ari Ahasuero kenni Ester a reyna, “Siasino isuna? Sadino ti ayan dayta a tao a natured a nangpanunot tapno aramidenna ti kasta a banag?”
Then King Ahashuerosh answered, and said vnto the Queene Ester, Who is he? and where is he that presumeth to doe thus?
6 Kinuna ni Ester, “Ti naunget a lalaki, dayta a kabusor, ket daytoy managdakdakes a ni Haman!” Ket kasta unay ti buteng ni Haman iti sangoanan ti ari ken ti reyna.
And Ester said, The aduersarie and enemie is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afrayde before the King and the Queene.
7 Sipupungtot a timmakder ti ari gapu iti panaginomna iti arak iti dayta a pannangan ket napan iti minuyongan ti palasio, ngem nagtalinaed ni Haman tapno agpakaasi kenni Reyna Ester para iti biagna. Nadlawna nga ikedkeddengen ti ari ti didigra a maibusor kenkuana.
And the King arose from ye banket of wine in his wrath, and went into the palace garden: but Haman stood vp, to make request for his life to the Queene Ester: for he sawe that there was a mischiefe prepared for him of the King.
8 Kalpasanna, nagsubli ti ari iti siled manipud iti minuyongan ti palasio a nakaidasaran ti arak. Nakapakleb ni Haman iti sofa nga isu ti ayan ni Ester. Kinuna ti ari, “Ramesenna kadi ti reyna iti imatangko, iti bukodko a balay?” Apaman a naisao ti ari daytoy, inabungotan dagiti adipen ti rupa ni Haman.
And when the King came againe out of the palace garden, into the house where they dranke wine, Haman was fallen vpon the bed whereon Ester sate! therefore the King sayd, Will he force the Queene also before me in the house? As the worde went out of the Kings mouth, they couered Hamans face.
9 Ket kinuna ni Harbona, a maysa kadagiti opisial nga agserserbi iti ari, “Maysa a pagbitayan a lima a cubico ti kangatona ti nakatakder iti abay ti balay ni Haman. Inaramidna daytoy para kenni Mardokeo, daydiay a nagsarita tapno masalakniban ti ari.” Kinuna ti ari, “Bitayenyo isuna sadiay.”
And Harbonah one of the eunuches, sayde in the presence of the King, Beholde, there standeth yet the tree in Hamans house fiftie cubites hie, which Haman had prepared for Mordecai, that spake good for the King. Then the King sayd, Hang him thereon.
10 Isu nga imbitinda ni Haman iti pagbitayan nga insaganana para kenni Mardokeo. Ket bimmaaw ti pungtot ti ari.
So they hanged Haman on the tree, that he had prepared for Mordecai: then was the Kings wrath pacified.
