picture

1 O n that night hath the sleep of the king fled away, and he saith to bring in the book of memorials of the Chronicles, and they are read before the king,

وَلَمْ يَستَطِعْ المَلِكُ أنْ يَنامَ فِي تِلكَ اللَّيلَةِ، فَطَلَبَ مِنْ خُدّامِهِ أنْ يُحضِرُوا لَهُ السِّجِلَّ الرَّسمِيَّ لِتارِيخِ المملَكَةِ. وَعِندَما قُرِئَ السِّجِلُّ أمامَ المَلِكِ،

2 a nd it is found written that Mordecai had declared concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs of the king, of the keepers of the threshold, who sought to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus.

اكتَشَفَ أنَّ مُرْدَخايَ هُوَ الذِي كَشَفَ أمْرَ بَغْثانا وَتَرَشَ خادِمَي المَلِكِ وَحارِسَي بَوّابَةِ المَلِكِ اللَّذَينِ تَآمَرا عَلَى اغتِيالِ المَلِكِ أحَشْوِيرُوشَ.

3 A nd the king saith, `What honour and greatness hath been done to Mordecai for this?' And the servants of the king, his ministers, say, `Nothing hath been done with him.'

فَقالَ المَلِكُ: «بِماذا أكرَمْنا مُرْدَخايَ وَكافأناهُ لِعَمَلِهِ هَذا؟» فَأجابَهُ الخُدّامُ: «لَمْ يُعمَلْ لَهُ أيُّ شَئٍ!»

4 A nd the king saith, `Who in the court?' -- and Haman hath come in to the outer court of the house of the king, to say to the king to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him --

فَقالَ المَلِكُ: «مَنْ هَذا الذِي فِي ساحَةِ القَصْرِ؟» وَكانَ هامانُ قَدْ دَخَلَ لِتَوِّهِ لِيَطلُبَ مِنَ المَلِكِ أنْ يُعَلِّقَ مُرْدَخايَ عَلَى العَمُودِ الخَشَبِيِّ الذِي جَهَّزَهُ لَهُ.

5 a nd the servants of the king say unto him, `Lo, Haman is standing in the court;' and the king saith, `Let him come in.'

فَقالَ الرِّجالُ الَّذينَ يَخدِمُونَ المَلِكَ: «هَذا هامانُ فِي ساحَةِ القَصرِ.» فَقالَ المَلِكُ: «أدخِلُوهُ.»

6 A nd Haman cometh in, and the king saith to him, `What -- to do with the man in whose honour the king hath delighted?' And Haman saith in his heart, `To whom doth the king delight to do honour more than myself?'

فَدَخَلَ هامانُ، فَقالَ لَهُ المَلِكُ: «ماذا يُصْنَعُ لِمَنْ يُريدُ المَلِكُ أنْ يَكْرِمَهُ؟» فَقالَ هامانُ فِي نَفسِهِ: «لا أحَدَ يَسْتَحِقُّ أنْ يُكْرِمَهُ المَلِكُ سِوايَ!»

7 A nd Haman saith unto the king, `The man in whose honour the king hath delighted,

وَقالَ هامانُ للمَلِكِ: «سَأُخْبِرُكَ ما يُصْنَعُ لِمَنْ يُريدُ المَلِكُ أنْ يَكْرِمَهُ.

8 l et them bring in royal clothing that the king hath put on himself, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and that the royal crown be put on his head,

يُعْطَى ثِياباً مَلَكِيَّةً مِنَ الَّتِي كانَ يَرتَدِيها المَلِكُ، وَحِصاناً كانَ المَلِكُ قَدْ رَكِبَ عَلَيهِ، وَيوضَعُ تاجٌ عَلَى رَأسِهِ.

9 a nd to give the clothing and the horse into the hand of a man of the heads of the king, the chiefs, and they have clothed the man in whose honour the king hath delighted, and caused him to ride on the horse in a broad place of the city, and called before him: Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'

تُوضَعْ هَذِهِ الثِّيابُ وَالحِصانُ فِي عُهدَةِ واحِدٍ مِنْ أنبَلِ الرُؤَساءِ عِنْدَ المَلِكِ. ثُمَّ يُلْبِسُ الرُّؤَساءُ الرَّجُلَ الذِي يُرِيدُ المَلِكُ أنْ يُكرِمَهُ، وَيُركِبُونَهُ عَلَى الحِصانِ لِيَتَجَوَّلَ فِي ساحاتِ المَدِينَةِ، بَينَما هُمْ يَهتِفُونَ: ‹هَذا ما يَنالُهُ مَنْ يُرِيدُ المَلِكُ أنْ يُكرِمَهُ.›»

10 A nd the king saith to Haman, `Haste, take the clothing and the horse, as thou hast spoken, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting in the gate of the king; there doth not fall a thing of all that thou hast spoken.'

فَقالَ المَلِكُ لِهامانَ: «إذَنْ أسرِعْ وَخُذِ الثِّيابَ وَالحِصانَ كَما قُلْتَ، وَافعَلْ هَذا لِمُرْدَخايَ اليَهُودَيِّ، الذِي يَجلِسُ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ المَلِكِ. وَلا تَنسَ شَيئاً مِنَ الأشياءِ التِي قُلْتَها.»

11 A nd Haman taketh the clothing, and the horse, and clothed Mordecai, and causeth him to ride in a broad place of the city, and calleth before him, `Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'

فَأخَذَ هامان الثِّيابَ وَألبَسَها لِمُرْدَخايَ، وَأركَبَهُ عَلَى الحِصانِ وَتَجَوَّلَ بِهِ فِي كُلِّ المَدِينَةِ. وَأعلَنَ هامان: «هَذا ما يَنالُهُ مَنْ يُرِيدُ المَلِكُ أنْ يُكرِمَهُ.»

12 A nd Mordecai turneth back unto the gate of the king, and Haman hath been hastened unto his house mourning, and with covered head,

ثُمَّ عادَ مُرْدَخايُ إلَى بَوّابَةِ المَلِكِ. أمّا هامانُ فَقَدْ عادَ مُسرِعاً إلَى بَيتِهِ وَهُوَ يَشعُرُ بِاليَأسِ وَالخِزيِ.

13 a nd Haman recounteth to Zeresh his wife, and to all his friends, all that hath met him, and his wise men say to him, and Zeresh his wife, `If Mordecai of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou art not able for him, but dost certainly fall before him.'

وَأخْبَرَ زَوجَتَهُ زَرَشَ وَأصدِقاءَهُ بِكُلِّ ما حَدَثَ. فَقالَ لَهُ مُستَشارُوهُ وَزَوجَتُهُ: «إذا كانَ مُرْدَخايُ الذِي بَدَأتَ تَنهَزِمُ أمامَهُ يَهُودِيّاً بِالفِعلِ، فَإنَّكَ لَنْ تَنتَصِرَ عَلَيهِ، بَلْ سَتُهزَمُ أمامَهُ بِالتَأكِيدِ.»

14 T hey are yet speaking with him, and eunuchs of the king have come, and haste to bring in Haman unto the banquet that Esther hath made.

وَبَينَما هُمْ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ وَصَلَ خُدّامُ المَلِكِ، وَاصطَحَبُوا هامان إلَى الوَلِيمَةِ التِي أعَدَّتها أسْتِيرُ.
