EstherChapter 7 |
|
1 SO the king and Haman went in to the banquet which Esther the queen had prepared. |
|
2 And the king said again to Esther on the second day of the banquet of wine, What is your petition and what is your request? It shall be granted you, even to the half of the kingdom. |
|
3 Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favor in your 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 For we are sold, I and my people, to be slain, to be put to the sword, and to perish. But if we had been sold merely as bondmen and bondwomen, I would have held my tongue, but the enemy would not hesitate to cause damage to the king. |
|
5 Then King Akhshirash answered and said to Esther the queen, Who is he and where is he who dares to presume in his heart to do so? |
|
6 And Esther said, The oppressor and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman trembled before the king and the queen. |
|
7 And the king arose from the banquet of wine in his wrath and went into the palace garden; and Haman remained to beg for his life from Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king. |
|
8 Then the king returned from the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was prostrate upon the couch where Esther was seated. Then the king said. Will he disgrace the queen also be fore me in the house? As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face. |
|
9 And Rahbona, one of his eunuchs, said before the king, Behold the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made to hang Mordecai because he had spoken good concerning the king, stands in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him on it. |
|
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath appeased. |

1 王與哈曼重赴后宴、 |
|
2 宴時王問后曰、后有何求、卽國之半、我亦予爾、 |
|
3 對曰、如王悅施恩婢子、則俯聽我祈、宥我生命、救我民族。 |
|
4 蓋我與我民、爲人所陷、殺戮殞亡、卽鬻我爲奴婢、我亦無詞、惟有損於王、敵雖輸金、無所裨補。 |
|
5 王問后曰、孰敢設是謀、其敵何在。 |
|
6 后曰、敵非他、哈曼是也。哈曼於王及后前、不勝股栗。 |
|
7 王怒、離席往御苑。哈曼知王必罪己、求救於后、 |
|
8 王自御苑、復至宴所、見哈曼榻前、跪抱后足。王曰、我在宮闈、乃敢辱后耶。左右聞言、以帕掩哈曼面。 |
|
9 內豎哈破拿告王曰、木底改昔有救王之功、哈曼反立木於家、高五丈、欲懸之於上。 |
|
10 王曰、卽以此木懸哈曼、王命旣行、怒始息、昔哈曼立木、欲懸木底改、今反以自懸焉。 |
