1 И пришел царь с Аманом пировать у Есфири царицы.
1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
2 И сказал царь Есфири также и в этот второй день во время пира: какое желание твое, царица Есфирь? оно будет удовлетворено; и какая просьба твоя? хотя бы до полуцарства, она будет исполнена.
2 The king said again to Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, “What is your petition, queen Esther? It shall be granted you. What is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed.”
3 И отвечала царица Есфирь и сказала: если я нашла благоволение в очах твоих, царь, и если царю благоугодно, то да будут дарованы мне жизнь моя, по желанию моему, и народ мой, по просьбе моей!
3 Then Esther the queen answered, “If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.
4 Ибо проданы мы, я и народ мой, на истребление, убиение и погибель. Если бы мы проданы были в рабы и рабыни, я молчала бы, хотя враг не вознаградил бы ущерба царя.
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 male and female slaves, I would have held my peace, although the adversary could not have compensated for the king’s loss.”
5 И отвечал царь Артаксеркс и сказал царице Есфири: кто это такой, и где тот, который отважился в сердце своем сделать так?
5 Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, “Who is he, and where is he who dared presume in his heart to do so?”
6 И сказала Есфирь: враг и неприятель — этот злобный Аман! И Аман затрепетал пред царем и царицею.
6 Esther said, “An adversary and an enemy, even this wicked Haman!” Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
7 И царь встал во гневе своем с пира и пошел в сад при дворце; Аман же остался умолять о жизни своей царицу Есфирь, ибо видел, что определена ему злая участь от царя.
7 The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. 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 Когда царь возвратился из сада при дворце в дом пира, Аман был припавшим к ложу, на котором находилась Есфирь. И сказал царь: даже и насиловать царицу хочет в доме у меня! Слово вышло из уст царя, — и накрыли лице Аману.
8 Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, “Will he even assault the queen in front of me in the house?” As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
9 И сказал Харбона, один из евнухов при царе: вот и дерево, которое приготовил Аман для Мардохея, говорившего доброе для царя, стоит у дома Амана, вышиною в пятьдесят локтей. И сказал царь: повесьте его на нем.
9 Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were with the king, said, “Behold, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman has made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, is standing at Haman’s house.” The king said, “Hang him on it!”
10 И повесили Амана на дереве, которое он приготовил для Мардохея. И гнев царя утих.
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath was pacified.
