Esther 7 - Listen Online

¹ Bẹ̃ni ọba ati Hamani wá iba Esteri ayaba jẹ àse.

¹ So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.

² Ọba si tun wi fun Esteri ni ijọ keji ni ibi àse ti nwọn nmu ọti-waini pe, kini ẹbẹ rẹ, Esteri ayaba? a o si fi fun ọ: ki si ni ibère rẹ? a o si ṣe e, ani lọ ide idaji ijọba.

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 Nigbana ni Esteri ayaba dahùn wi pe, bi mo ba ri ore-ọfẹ loju rẹ ọba, bi o ba si wù ọba, mo bẹbẹ ki a fi ẹmi mi bùn mi nipa ẹbẹ mi, ati awọn enia mi nipa ibère mi.

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 Nitori a ti tà wa, emi ati awọn enia mi, lati run wa, lati pa wa, ki a le parun. Ṣugbọn bi o ṣe pe, a ti tà wa fun ẹrúkunrin, ati ẹrúbirin ni, emi iba pa ẹnu mi mọ́, bi o tilẹ jẹ pe ọta na kò le di ofò ọba.

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 Nigbana ni Ahaswerusi ọba dahùn, o si wi fun Esteri ayaba pe, Tali oluwa rẹ̀ na, nibo li o si wà, ti o jẹ gbe e le ọkàn rẹ̀ lati ṣe bẹ̃?

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 Esteri si wi pe, ọlọtẹ enia ati ọta na ni Hamani, ẹni buburu yi. Nigbana ni ẹ̀ru ba Hamani niwaju ọba ati ayaba.

⁶ And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.

⁷ Ọba si dide ni ibinu rẹ̀ kuro ni ibi àse ti nwọn nmu ọti-waini, o bọ́ si àgbala ãfin. Hamani si dide duro lati tọrọ ẹmi rẹ̀ lọwọ Esteri ayaba; nitori o ti ri pe ọba ti pinnu ibi si on.

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 Nigbana ni ọba pẹhinda lati inu àgbala ãfin sinu ibiti nwọn ti nmu ọti-waini, Hamani si ṣubu le ibi ìrọgbọkú lori eyi ti Esteri joko; nigbana ni ọba wi pe, yio ha tẹ́ ayaba lọdọ mi ninu ile bi? Bi ọ̀rọ na ti ti ẹnu ọba jade, nwọn bò oju Hamani.

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 the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.

⁹ Harbona ọkan ninu awọn ìwẹfa si wi niwaju ọba pe, Sa wò o, igi ti o ga ni ãdọta igbọnwọ ti Hamani ti rì nitori Mordekai ti o ti sọ ọ̀rọ rere fun ọba, o wà li oró ni ile Hamani. Ọba si wi pe, Ẹ so o rọ̀ lori rẹ̀.

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 had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon.

¹⁰ Bẹ̃ni nwọn so Hamani rọ̀ sori igi ti o ti rì fun Mordekai; ibinu ọba si rọ̀.

¹⁰ So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.
