1Nang gabing yaon ay hindi makatulog ang hari; at kaniyang iniutos na dalhin ang aklat ng mga alaala ng mga gawa, at mga binasa sa harap ng hari. 2At nasumpungang nakasulat, na si Mardocheo ay nagsaysay tungkol kay Bigthana at kay Teres, dalawa sa mga kamarero ng hari, sa nangagingat ng pintuan na nangagisip magbuhat ng kamay sa haring Assuero. 3At sinabi ng hari, Anong karangalan at kamahalan ang nagawa kay Mardocheo sa bagay na ito? Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng mga lingkod ng hari na nagsisipaglingkod sa kaniya, Walang anomang nagawa sa kaniya. 4At sinabi ng hari, Sino ang nasa looban? Si Aman nga ay pumasok sa looban ng bahay ng hari, upang magsalita sa hari na bitayin si Mardocheo sa bibitayan na inihanda niya sa kaniya. 5At ang mga lingkod ng hari ay nagsabi sa kaniya. Narito, si Aman ay nakatayo sa looban. At sinabi ng hari, Papasukin siya. 6Sa gayo'y pumasok si Aman. At ang hari ay nagsabi sa kaniya, Anong gagawin sa lalake na kinalulugdang parangalin ng hari? Sinabi nga ni Aman sa kaniyang sarili: Sino ang kinalulugdang parangalin ng hari na higit kay sa akin? 7At sinabi ni Aman sa hari, Sa lalake na kinalulugdang parangalin ng hari, 8Ay dalhan ng damit-hari na isinusuot ng hari, at ng kabayo na sinasakyan ng hari, at putungan sa ulo ng putong na hari: 9At ang bihisan at ang kabayo ay mabigay sa kamay ng isa sa pinakamahal na prinsipe ng hari, upang bihisang gayon ang lalake na kinalulugdang parangalin ng hari, at pasakayin siya sa kabayo sa lansangan ng bayan, at itanyag sa unahan niya; Ganito ang gagawin sa lalake na kinalulugdang parangalin ng hari. 10Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng hari kay Aman, Ikaw ay magmadali, at kunin mo ang bihisan at ang kabayo, gaya ng iyong sinabi, at gawin mong gayon kay Mardocheo, na Judio, na nauupo sa pintuang-daan ng hari; huwag magkulang ang anomang bagay sa lahat na iyong sinalita. 11Nang magkagayo'y kinuha ni Aman ang bihisan at ang kabayo, at binihisan si Mardocheo, at pinasakay sa lansangan ng bayan, at nagtanyag sa unahan niya: Ganito ang gagawin sa lalake na kinalulugdang parangalin ng hari. 12At si Mardocheo ay bumalik sa pintuang-daan ng hari. Nguni't si Aman ay nagmadaling umuwi, na tumatangis at may takip ang ulo. 13At isinaysay ni Aman kay Zeres na kaniyang asawa at sa lahat niyang mga kaibigan ang bawa't bagay na nangyari sa kaniya. Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng kaniyang mga pantas na lalake, at ni Zeres na kaniyang asawa sa kaniya: Kung si Mardocheo, na iyong pinasimulang kinahulugan sa harap, ay sa binhi ng mga Judio, hindi ka mananaig laban sa kaniya, kundi ikaw ay walang pagsalang mahuhulog sa harap niya. 14Samantalang sila'y nakikipagsalitaan pa sa kaniya, dumating ang mga kamarero ng hari at nagmadaling dinala si Aman sa pigingan na inihanda ni Esther.
1On that night, the king couldn’t sleep. He commanded the book of records of the chronicles to be brought, and they were read to the king. 2It was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, who were doorkeepers, who had tried to lay hands on the King Ahasuerus. 3The king said, “What honor and dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?” Then the king’s servants who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.” 4The king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had come into 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. 5The king’s servants said to him, “Behold, Haman stands in the court.” The king said, “Let him come in.” 6So Haman came in. The king said to him, “What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honor?” Now Haman said in his heart, “Who would the king delight to honor more than myself?” 7Haman said to the king, “For the man whom the king delights to honor, 8let royal clothing be brought which the king uses to wear, and the horse that the king rides on, and on the head of which a crown royal is set. 9Let the clothing and the horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that they may array the man whom the king delights to honor with them, and have him ride on horseback through the city square, and proclaim before him, ‘Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!’” 10Then the king said to Haman, “Hurry and take the clothing and the horse, as you have said, and do this for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king’s gate. Let nothing fail of all that you have spoken.” 11Then Haman took the clothing and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and had him ride through the city square, and proclaimed before him, “Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!” 12Mordecai came back to the king’s gate, but Haman hurried to his house, mourning and having his head covered. 13Haman recounted to Zeresh his wife and 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 begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him, but you will surely fall before him.” 14While they were yet talking with him, the king’s eunuchs came, and hurried to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
1In denzelfden nacht was de slaap van den koning geweken, en hij zeide, dat men het boek der gedachtenissen, de kronieken, brengen zou; en zij werden in de tegenwoordigheid des konings gelezen. 2En men vond geschreven, dat Mordechai had te kennen gegeven van Bigthana en Theres, twee kamerlingen des konings, uit de dorpelwachters, die de hand zochten te leggen aan den koning Ahasveros. 3Toen zeide de koning: Wat eer en verhoging is Mordechai hierover gedaan? En de jongelingen des konings, zijn dienaars, zeiden: Aan hem is niets gedaan. 4Toen zeide de koning: Wie is in het voorhof? (Haman nu was gekomen in het buitenvoorhof van het huis des konings, om den koning te zeggen, dat men Mordechai zou hangen aan de galg, die hij hem had doen bereiden.) 5En des konings jongelingen zeiden tot hem: Zie, Haman staat in het voorhof. Toen zeide de koning: Dat hij inkome. 6Als Haman ingekomen was, zo zeide de koning tot hem: Wat zal men met dien man doen, tot wiens eer de koning een welbehagen heeft? Toen zeide Haman in zijn hart: Tot wien heeft de koning een welbehagen, om hem eer te doen, meer dan tot mij? 7Daarom zeide Haman tot den koning: Den man, tot wiens eer de koning een welbehagen heeft, 8Zal men het koninklijke kleed brengen, dat de koning pleegt aan te trekken, en het paard, waarop de koning pleegt te rijden; en dat de koninklijke kroon op zijn hoofd gezet worde. 9En men zal dat kleed en dat paard geven in de hand van een uit de vorsten des konings, van de grootste heren, en men zal het dien man aantrekken, tot wiens eer de koning een welbehagen heeft; en men zal hem op dat paard doen rijden door de straten der stad, en men zal voor hem roepen: Alzo zal men dien man doen, tot wiens eer de koning een welbehagen heeft! 10Toen zeide de koning tot Haman: Haast u, neem dat kleed, en dat paard, gelijk als gij gesproken hebt, en doe alzo aan Mordechai, den Jood, dien aan de poort des konings zit; en laat niet een woord vallen van alles, wat gij gesproken hebt. 11En Haman nam dat kleed en dat paard, en trok het kleed Mordechai aan, en deed hem rijden door de straten der stad, en hij riep voor hem: Alzo zal men dien man doen, tot wiens eer de koning een welbehagen heeft! 12Daarna keerde Mordechai wederom tot de poort des konings; maar Haman werd voortgedreven naar zijn huis, treurig en met bedekten hoofde. 13En Haman vertelde aan zijn huisvrouw Zeres en al zijn vrienden al wat hem wedervaren was. Toen zeiden hem zijn wijzen, en Zeres, zijn huisvrouw: Indien Mordechai, voor wiens aangezicht gij hebt begonnen te vallen, van het zaad der Joden is, zo zult gij tegen hem niet vermogen; maar gij zult gewisselijk voor zijn aangezicht vallen. 14Toen zij nog met hem spraken, zo kwamen des konings kamerlingen nabij, en zij haastten Haman tot den maaltijd te brengen, dien Esther bereid had.
