1 A treći dan obuče se Jestira u carsko odelo, i stade u tremu unutrašnjeg dvora carskog prema stanu carevom; a car seđaše na carskom prestolu svom u dvoru carskom prema vratima od dvora.
1 Now on the third day, Esther put on her royal clothing and stood in the inner court of the king’s house, next to the king’s house. The king sat on his royal throne in the royal house, next to the entrance of the house.
2 I kad car ugleda caricu Jestiru gde stoji u tremu, ona nađe milost pred njim, te car pruži prema Jestiri zlatnu palicu koja mu beše u ruci, i Jestira pristupi i dotače se kraja od palice.
2 When the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, she obtained favor in his sight; and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. So Esther came near and touched the top of the scepter.
3 I reče joj car: Šta ti je, carice Jestiro? I šta želiš? Ako je i do polovine carstva, daće ti se.
3 Then the king asked her, “What would you like, queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given you even to the half of the kingdom.”
4 A Jestira reče: Ako je ugodno caru, neka dođe car s Amanom danas na obed koji sam mu zgotovila.
4 Esther said, “If it seems good to the king, let the king and Haman come today to the banquet that I have prepared for him.”
5 A car reče: Zovite brže Amana da učini šta reče Jestira. I dođe car s Amanom na obed koji zgotovi Jestira.
5 Then the king said, “Bring Haman quickly, so that it may be done as Esther has said.” So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
6 Potom car, napiv se vina, reče Jestiri: Šta želiš? Daće ti se; i šta moliš? Ako je i do polovine carstva, biće.
6 The king said to Esther at the banquet of wine, “What is your petition? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed.”
7 A Jestira odgovarajući reče: Želim i molim:
7 Then Esther answered and said, “My petition and my request is this.
8 Ako sam našla milost pred carem, i ako je ugodno caru da mi da šta želim i učini šta molim, neka opet dođe car s Amanom na obed koji ću im zgotoviti, i sutra ću učiniti po reči carevoj.
8 If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I will prepare for them, and I will do tomorrow as the king has said.”
9 I tako otide Aman onaj dan veseo i dobre volje. Ali kad vide Aman Mardoheja na vratima carevim, a on ne usta niti se mače pred njim, napuni se Aman gneva na Mardoheja.
9 Then Haman went out that day joyful and glad of heart, but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king’s gate, that he didn’t stand up nor move for him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai.
10 Ali se uzdrža Aman dokle dođe kući svojoj; potom posla i sazva prijatelje svoje i Seresu ženu svoju.
10 Nevertheless Haman restrained himself, and went home. There, he sent and called for his friends and Zeresh his wife.
11 I pripovedi im Aman o slavi bogatstva svog i o mnoštvu sinova svojih i o svemu čim ga je podigao car i kako ga je uzvisio svrh knezova i sluga carskih.
11 Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches, the multitude of his children, all the things in which the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.
12 I doda Aman: Pa i carica Jestira nikoga osim mene ne poziva s carem na obed, koji beše zgotovila, pa i sutra sam pozvan k njoj s carem.
12 Haman also said, “Yes, Esther the queen let no man come in with the king to the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and tomorrow I am also invited by her together with the king.
13 Ali sve to nije mi ni na šta dokle god gledam onog Mardoheja Judejca gde sedi na vratima carevim.
13 Yet all this avails me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.”
14 Tada mu reče Seresa, žena njegova i svi prijatelji njegovi: Neka načine vešala visoka pedeset lakata, i ujutru reci caru da se na njima obesi Mardohej, pa idi s carem veseo na obed. I to bi po volji Amanu i pripravi vešala.
14 Then Zeresh his wife and all his friends said to him, “Let a gallows be made fifty cubits high, and in the morning speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on it. Then go in merrily with the king to the banquet.” This pleased Haman, so he had the gallows made.
