1 O n the third day Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the royal or inner court of the king’s palace opposite his. The king was sitting on his throne, facing the main entrance of the palace.

Haddaba maalintii saddexaad Esteer baa gashatay dharkeedii boqornimada, oo waxay soo istaagtay guriga boqorka barxaddiisa dhexe, taasoo ka soo hor jeedday guriga boqorka; oo boqorkuna wuxuu ku fadhiyey carshigiisii boqornimada oo ku dhex yiil guriga boqornimada, wuxuuna ka soo hor jeeday iridda guriga laga soo galo.

2 A nd when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, she obtained favor in his sight, and he held out to the golden scepter that was in his hand. So Esther drew near and touched the tip of the scepter.

Oo markii boqorkii arkay Boqorad Esteer oo barxadda dhex taagan ayuu raalli ka noqday iyada, oo boqorkiina wuxuu Esteer ku soo fidiyey ushii dahabka ahayd oo gacantiisa ku jirtay. Markaasaa Esteer soo dhowaatay oo taabatay usha dusheedii.

3 T hen the king said to her, What will you have, Queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given you, even to the half of the kingdom.

Kolkaasuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Boqorad Esteeray, maxaad doonaysaa? Oo maxaad i weyddiisanaysaa? Xataa hadday boqortooyada badhkeed tahay waa lagu siinayaaye.

4 A nd Esther said, If it seems good to the king, let the king and Haman come this day to the dinner that I have prepared for the king.

Kolkaasaa Esteer waxay tidhi, Boqorow, hadday kula wanaagsan tahay, maanta adiga iyo Haamaanba kaalaya martiqaadka aan u diyaariyey.

5 T hen the king said, Cause Haman to come quickly, that what Esther has said may be done.

Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu yidhi, Haamaan haddiiba ha dhaqsado, si loo yeelo waxay Esteer tidhi. Oo sidaas daraaddeed boqorkii iyo Haamaanba waxay yimaadeen martiqaadkii ay Esteer u diyaarisay.

6 S o the king and Haman came to the dinner that Esther had prepared.

Oo intii martiqaadkii khamriga la joogay ayuu boqorkii Esteer ku yidhi, Baryadaadu waa maxay? Maxaad i weyddiisanaysaa? Xataa hadday boqortooyada badhkeed tahay waa laguu yeelayaaye.

7 A nd during the serving of wine, the king said to Esther, What is your petition? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to the half of the kingdom, it shall be performed.

Markaasaa Esteer jawaabtay oo tidhi, Baryadayda iyo weyddiisashadaydu waxay tahay,

8 T hen Esther said, My petition and my request is: 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 tomorrow to the dinner that I shall prepare for them; and I will do tomorrow as the king has said.

Boqorow, haddaad raalli iga tahay, oo aad ku faraxdid inaad ii samaysid waxaan kaa baryay, oo aad yeeshid waxaan ku weyddiistay, haddaba adiga iyo Haamaan kaalaya martiqaadka aan idiin diyaarin doono, oo aniguna berri baan yeelayaa sidaad tidhi, boqorow. Cadhadii Haamaan Ee Mordekay

9 H aman went away that day joyful and elated in heart. But when he saw Mordecai at the king’s gate refusing to stand up or show fear before him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai.

Markaasaa Haamaan maalintaas wuxuu dibadda u baxay isagoo faraxsan oo qalbiga ka rayraynaya. Laakiinse Haamaan markuu arkay Mordekay oo jooga boqorka iriddiisa, oo aan isaga u istaagin, una gariirin, ayuu Mordekay aad iyo aad ugu cadhooday.

10 N evertheless, Haman restrained himself and went home. There he sent and called for his friends and Zeresh his wife.

Habase ahaatee Haamaan wuu isceliyey oo gurigiisuu tegey. Markaasuu u cid dirsaday oo u yeedhay saaxiibbadiis iyo naagtiisii Seresh.

11 A nd Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches, the abundance of his sons, all the things in which the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.

Markaasaa Haamaan wuxuu iyagii uga sheekeeyey ammaanta maalkiisa, iyo badnaanta carruurtiisa, iyo kulli derejadihii boqorku isaga u dalliciyey oo dhan, iyo sidii boqorku ugu wada sarraysiiyey boqorka amiirradiisa iyo addoommadiisa oo dhan.

12 H aman added, Yes, and today Queen Esther did not let any man come with the king to the dinner she had prepared but myself; and tomorrow also I am invited by her together with the king.

Oo Haamaan weliba wuxuu kaloo yidhi, Xataa boqoradda Esteer ninna uma ay oggolaan inuu boqorka u soo raaco martiqaadkii ay diyaarisay aniga mooyaane; oo weliba berrina anigoo boqorka la jira ayay i martiqaadday.

13 Y et all this benefits me nothing as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.

Laakiinse waxaas oo dhammu waxba ii tari maayaan intaan arkayo Yuhuudiga Mordekay oo boqorka iriddiisa fadhiya.

14 T hen 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, that Mordecai may be hanged on it; then you go in merrily with the king to the dinner. And the thing pleased Haman, and he caused the gallows to be made.

Markaasaa naagtiisii Seresh iyo saaxiibbadiis oo dhammu waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Ha la sameeyo qori wax lagu deldelo oo dhererkiisu konton dhudhun yahay, oo subaxda waxaad boqorka ku tidhaahdaa, Mordekay meeshaas ha lagu deldelo. Oo markaas dabadeed adigoo faraxsan boqorka martiqaadka u raac. Kolkaasaa hadalkaasu ka farxiyey Haamaan; oo wuxuu amray in meeshii deldelaadda la sameeyo.
