1So the king and Aman went in, to drink with the queen.
1Então o rei e Hamã foram ao banquete com a rainha Ester.
2And the king said to her again the second day, after he was warm with wine: What is thy petition, Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what wilt thou have done: although thou ask the half of my kingdom, thou shalt have it.
2O rei disse novamente a Ester no segundo dia, no banquete do vinho: “Qual é a sua petição, rainha Ester? Ela lhe será concedida. Qual é o seu pedido? Mesmo que seja até a metade do reino, ele será atendido.”
3Then she answered: If I have found Favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please thee, give me my life for which I ask, and my people for which I request.
3Então a rainha Ester respondeu: “Se achei favor aos seus olhos, ó rei, e se for do agrado do rei, que a minha vida me seja concedida como minha petição, e o meu povo como o meu pedido.
4For we are given up, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. And would God we were sold for bondmen and bondwomen: the evil might be borne with, and I would have mourned in silence: but now we have an enemy, whose cruelty redoundeth upon the king.
4Pois fomos vendidos, eu e o meu povo, para sermos destruídos, mortos e aniquilados. Mas se tivéssemos sido vendidos como escravos e escravas, eu teria me calado, embora o adversário não pudesse compensar o prejuízo do rei.”
5And king Assuerus answered and said: Who is this, and of what power, that he should do these things?
5Então o rei Assuero disse à rainha Ester: “Quem é ele, e onde está aquele que ousou em seu coração fazer tal coisa?”
6And Esther said: It is this Aman that is our adversary and most wicked enemy. Aman hearing this was forthwith astonished, not being able to bear the countenance of the king and of the queen.
6Ester disse: “Um adversário e um inimigo, este perverso Hamã!” Então Hamã ficou apavorado diante do rei e da rainha.
7But the king being angry rose up, and went from the place of the banquet into the garden set with trees. Aman also rose up to entreat Esther the queen for his life, for he understood that evil was prepared for him by the king.
7O rei levantou-se em sua ira do banquete do vinho e foi para o jardim do palácio. Hamã levantou-se para implorar por sua vida à rainha Ester, pois viu que o mal estava determinado contra ele pelo rei.
8And when the king came back out of the garden set with trees, and entered into the place of the banquet, he found Aman was fallen upon the bed on which Esther lay, and he said: He will force the queen also in my presence, in my own house. The word was not yet gone out of the king’s mouth, and immediately they covered his face.
8Então o rei voltou do jardim do palácio para o local do banquete do vinho; e Hamã havia caído sobre o divã onde Ester estava. Então o rei disse: “Ele iria até mesmo violentar a rainha na minha frente, nesta casa?” Assim que a palavra saiu da boca do rei, cobriram o rosto de Hamã.
9And Harbona, one of the eunuchs that stood waiting on the king, said: Behold the gibbet which he hath prepared for Mardochai, who spoke for the king, standeth in Aman’s house, being fifty cubits high. And the king said to him: Hang him upon it.
9Então Harbona, um dos eunucos que estavam com o rei, disse: “Eis que a forca de cinquenta côvados de altura, que Hamã fez para Mardoqueu, que falou para o bem do rei, está erguida na casa de Hamã.” O rei disse: “Enforquem-no nela!”
10So Aman was hanged on the gibbet, which he had prepared for Mardochai: and the king’s wrath ceased.
10Então enforcaram Hamã na forca que ele havia preparado para Mardoqueu. E a ira do rei foi apaziguada.
