صلب هامان | |
| 1 فَجَاءَ الْمَلِكُ وَهَامَانُ لِيَشْرَبَا عِنْدَ أَسْتِيرَ الْمَلِكَةِ. | 1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ لأَسْتِيرَ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّانِي أَيْضًا عِنْدَ شُرْبِ الْخَمْرِ: «مَا هُوَ سُؤْلُكِ يَا أَسْتِيرُ الْمَلِكَةُ فَيُعْطَى لَكِ؟ وَمَا هِيَ طِلْبَتُكِ؟ وَلَوْ إِلَى نِصْفِ الْمَمْلَكَةِ تُقْضَى». | 2 And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it shall be performed, even to the half of the kingdom. |
|
| 3 فَأَجَابَتْ أَسْتِيرُ الْمَلِكَةُ وَقَالَتْ: «إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ، وَإِذَا حَسُنَ عِنْدَ الْمَلِكِ، فَلْتُعْطَ لِي نَفْسِي بِسُؤْلِي، وَشَعْبِي بِطِلْبَتِي. | 3 Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request: |
|
4 لأَنَّنَا قَدْ بِعْنَا أَنَا وَشَعْبِي لِلْهَلاَكِ وَالْقَتْلِ وَالإِبَادَةِ. وَلَوْ بِعْنَا عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً لَكُنْتُ سَكَتُّ، مَعَ أَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ لاَ يُعَوِّضُ عَنْ خَسَارَةِ الْمَلِكِ».  | 4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage. |
|
| 5 فَتَكَلمَ الْمَلِكُ أَحَشْوِيرُوشُ وَقَالَ لأَسْتِيرَ الْمَلِكَةِ: «مَنْ هُوَ؟ وَأَيْنَ هُوَ هذَا الَّذِي يَتَجَاسَرُ بِقَلْبِهِ عَلَى أَنْ يَعْمَلَ هكَذَا؟» | 5 Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so? |
|
|
| 6 فَقَالَتْ أَسْتِيرُ: «هُوَ رَجُلٌ خَصْمٌ وَعَدُوٌّ، هذَا هَامَانُ الرَّدِيءُ». فَارْتَاعَ هَامَانُ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ وَالْمَلِكَةِ. | 6 And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen. |
|
| 7 فَقَامَ الْمَلِكُ بِغَيْظِهِ عَنْ شُرْبِ الْخَمْرِ إِلَى جَنَّةِ الْقَصْرِ. وَوَقَفَ هَامَانُ لِيَتَوَسَّلَ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ إِلَى أَسْتِيرَ الْمَلِكَة، لأَنَّهُ رَأَى أَنَّ الشَّرَّ قَدْ أُعِدَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَلِكِ. | 7 And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath went into the palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king. |
|
|
| 8 وَلَمَّا رَجَعَ الْمَلِكُ مِنْ جَنَّةِ الْقَصْرِ إِلَى بَيْتِ شُرْبِ الْخَمْرِ، وَهَامَانُ مُتَوَاقِعٌ عَلَى السَّرِيرِ الَّذِي كَانَتْ أَسْتِيرُ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ الْمَلِكُ: «هَلْ أَيْضًا يَكْبِسُ الْمَلِكَةَ مَعي فِي الْبَيْتِ؟» وَلَمَّا خَرَجَتِ الْكَلِمَةُ مِنْ فَمِ الْمَلِكِ غَطَّوْا وَجْهَ هَامَانَ. | 8 Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of king's mouth, they covered Haman's face. |
|
|
| 9 فَقَالَ حَرْبُونَا، وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الْخِصْيَانِ الَّذِينَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْمَلِكِ: «هُوَذَا الْخَشَبَةُ أَيْضًا الَّتِي عَمِلَهَا هَامَانُ لِمُرْدَخَايَ الَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِالْخَيْرِ نَحْوَ الْمَلِكِ قَائِمَةٌ فِي بَيْتِ هَامَانَ، ارْتِفَاعُهَا خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا». فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ: «اصْلِبُوهُ عَلَيْهَا». | 9 And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon. |
|
| 10 فَصَلَبُوا هَامَانَ عَلَى الْخَشَبَةِ الَّتِي أَعَدَّهَا لِمُرْدَخَايَ. ثُمَّ سَكَنَ غَضَبُ الْمَلِكِ. | 10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified. |
