1That night the king passed without sleep, and he commanded the histories and chronicles of former times to be brought him. And when they were reading them before him,
1I A po, aole i hiki i ke alii ke hiamoe, a kauoha ae la ia e laweia mai ka buke mooolelo o na oihana; a heluheluia ia imua o ke alii.
2They came to that place where it was written, how Mardochai had discovered the treason of Bagathan and Thares the eunuchs, who sought to kill king Assuerus.
2A loaa iho la ka palapala o ko Moredekai hai ana no Bigetana, a me Teresa, na luna elua o ke alii i kiai ai i ka puka, a imi i wahi e hiki ai, ke kau i ka lima maluna o ke alii o Ahasuero.
3And when the king heard this, he said: What honour and reward hath Mardochai received for this fidelity? His servants and ministers said to him: He hath received no reward at all.
3Ninau ae ke alii, Heaha ka mea maikai, a me ka mea nui i hanaia'i ia Moredekai, no keia mea? I aku la na kauwa a ke alii i ka poe i lawelawe nana, Aohe mea i hanaia nona.
4And the king said immediately: Who is in the court? for Aman was coming in to the inner court of the king’s house, to speak to the king, that he might order Mardochai to be hanged upon the gibbet which was prepared for him.
4Ninau ae la ke alii, Owai la ma ka pahale? Ua hiki mai o Hamana ma ka pahale mawaho o ka hale o ke alii e olelo i ke alii, e liia o Moredekai ma ke olokea ana i hoomakaukau ai nona.
5The servants answered: Aman standeth in the court, and the king said: Let him come in.
5I aku la na kauwa a ke alii ia ia, Aia, ke ku mai la o Hamana ma ka pahale. I mai la ke alii, E hele mai la iloko.
6And when he was come in, he said to him: What ought to be done to the man whom the king is desirous to honour? But Aman thinking in his heart, and supposing that the king would honour no other but himself,
6Alaila, komo aku la o Hamana. Ninau mai la ke alii ia ia, Heaha ka mea e hanaia'i no ke kanaka a ke alii e manao nei e hoohanohano? Nalu iho la o Hamana maloko o kona naau, Owai ka mea a ke alii e makemake nei e hoohanohano, aoleanei owau?
7Answered: The man whom the king desireth to honour,
7I aku la o Hamana i ka alii, No ke kanaka a ke alii e makemake nei e hoohanohano,
8Ought to be clothed with the king’s apparel, and to be set upon the horse that the king rideth upon, and to have the royal crown upon his head,
8E laweia mai ka lole alii a ke alii i komo ai, a me ka lio a ke alii i holoholo ai, a me ka leialii i hooleiia'i kona poo;
9And let the first of the king’s princes and nobles hold his horse, and going through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say: Thus shall he be honoured, whom the king hath a mind to honour.
9A e haawiia ua lole la, a me ka lio i ka lima o kekahi o na'lii koikoi o ke alii, i hoaahu ai lakou i ke kanaka a ke alii i makemake ai e hoohano, a e hooholo lakou ia ia maluna o ka lio ma ke alanui o ke kulanakauhale, a e kala aku mamua ona, Pela e hanaia'i ke kanaka a ke alii e makemake ai e hoolanilani.
10And the king said to him: Make haste and take the robe and the horse, and do as thou hast spoken to Mardochai the Jew, who sitteth before the gates of the palace. Beware thou pass over any of those things which thou hast spoken.
10Alaila, olelo mai la ke alii ia Hamana, E wikiwiki oe, e lawe i ka lole, a me ka lio, me au i olelo ai, a e hana aku oe pela ia Moredekai, i ka Iudaio, ka mea e noho la ma ka pukapa o ke alii. Mai hoohaule i kekahi o na mea a pau au i olelo mai nei.
11So Aman took the robe and the horse, and arraying Mardochai in the street of the city, and setting him on the horse, went before him, and proclaimed: This honour is he worthy of, whom the king hath a mind to honour.
11Alaila, lawe o Hamana i ka lole a me ka lio, a hoaahu iho la ia Moredekai, a hooholo ae la ia ia maluna o ka lio, ma ke alanui o ke kulanakauhale, a kala aku la imua ona, Pela no e hanaia mai ai i ke kanaka a ke alii e makemake ai e hoohanohano.
12But Mardochai returned to the palace gate: and Aman made haste to go to his house, mourning and having his head covered:
12Hele hou aku la o Moredekai i ka pukapa o ke alii; aka, o Hamana, wikiwiki ae la ia i kona hale, me ke kaniuhu, a ua pulouia kona poo.
13And he told Zares his wife, and his friends, all that had befallen him. And the wise men whom he had in counsel, and his wife answered him: If Mardochai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou canst not resist him, but thou shalt fall in his sight.
13Hai aku la o Hamana i kana wahine ia Zeresa, a i kona poe makamaka a pau i na mea a pau i loaa ai ia ia. Alaila, olelo mai la ia ia kona poe kanaka akamai, a me kana wahine o Zeresa, Ina no ka hanauna Iudaio o ua Moredekai la, a ua haule oe imua ona i keia wa, aole no oe e lanakihi maluna one, aka, e oiaio no, e haule no oe imua ona.
14As they were yet speaking, the king’s eunuchs came, and compelled him to go quickly to the banquet which the queen had prepared.
14A ia lakou e kamailio pu ana me ia, hiki ae la na luna o ke alii, a wikiwiki lakou e lawe aku ia Hamana i ka ahainu a Esetera i hoomakaukau ai.
