Естир 6
Библия, ревизирано издание
Мардохей е удостоен с царски почести
6 (A)През онази нощ сънят побегна от царя; и той заповяда да донесат записната книга на летописите; и ги прочитаха пред царя.
2 (B)И намериха как Мардохей беше обадил за Вихтан и Терес, двама от царските евнуси, от онези, които пазеха входа, че бяха поискали да сложат ръка на цар Асуир.
3 Царят каза: Каква почест и отличие е дадено на Мардохей за това? А слугите на царя, които му прислужваха, отговориха: Не е направено нищо за него.
4 (C)Тогава царят каза: Кой е на двора? А Аман беше дошъл във външния двор на царската къща, за да каже на царя да обеси Мардохей на бесилката, която беше приготвил за него.
5 Слугите на царя му отвърнаха: Ето, Аман стои на двора. И царят каза: Да влезе.
6 След като Аман влезе, царят му каза: Какво да бъде направено на човека, на когото царят благоволява да окаже почест? А Аман помисли в сърцето си: На кого друг би благоволил царят да окаже почест освен на мене?
7 Затова Аман отвърна на царя: За човека, на когото царят благоволява да окаже почест,
8 (D)нека донесат царската одежда, с която царят се облича, и царската корона, която се слага на главата му, и нека доведат коня, на който царят язди,
9 (E)и тази одежда и конят да се дадат в ръката на един от по-видните царски първенци, за да облекат човека, когото царят благоволява да почете; и когато го развеждат, възседнал на коня през градския площад, нека прогласяват пред него: Така ще бъде направено на човека, когото царят благоволява да почете.
10 Тогава царят каза на Аман: Скоро вземи одеждата и коня, както си казал, и направи така на юдеина Мардохей, който седи при царската порта; да не пропуснеш нищо от всичко, което си казал.
11 И така, Аман взе одеждата и коня и облече Мардохей, и го преведе яхнал през градския площад, и прогласяваше пред него: Така ще бъде направено на човека, когото царят благоволява да почете.
12 (F)И Мардохей се върна в царската порта. А Аман отиде бързо у дома си наскърбен и с покрита глава.
13 И Аман разказа на жена си Зереса и на всичките си приятели всичко, което му се беше случило. Тогава мъдреците му и жена му Зереса му казаха: Ако Мардохей, пред когото си почнал да изпадаш, е от юдейския род, ти няма да му надвиеш, а без друго ще паднеш пред него.
Наказанието на Аман
14 (G)Докато още разговаряха с него, царските евнуси стигнаха и побързаха да заведат Аман на угощението, което Естир беше приготвила.
Esther 6
New King James Version
The King Honors Mordecai
6 That night [a]the king could not sleep. So one was commanded to bring (A)the book of the records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. 2 And it was found written that Mordecai had told of [b]Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, the doorkeepers who had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus. 3 Then the king said, “What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?”
And the king’s servants who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.”
4 So the king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had just entered (B)the outer court of the king’s palace (C)to suggest that the king hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
5 The king’s servants said to him, “Haman is there, standing in the court.”
And the king said, “Let him come in.”
6 So Haman came in, and the king asked him, “What shall be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?”
Now Haman thought in his heart, “Whom would the king delight to honor more than (D)me?” 7 And Haman answered the king, “For the man whom the king delights to honor, 8 let a royal robe be brought which the king has worn, and (E)a horse on which the king has ridden, which has a royal [c]crest placed on its head. 9 Then let this robe and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that he may array the man whom the king delights to honor. Then [d]parade him on horseback through the city square, (F)and proclaim before him: ‘Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!’ ”
10 Then the king said to Haman, “Hurry, take the robe and the horse, as you have suggested, and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits within the king’s gate! Leave nothing undone of all that you have spoken.”
11 So Haman took the robe and the horse, arrayed Mordecai and led him on horseback through the city square, and proclaimed before him, “Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!”
12 Afterward Mordecai went back to the king’s gate. But Haman (G)hurried to his house, mourning (H)and with his head covered. 13 When Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened to him, his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, “If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against (I)him but will surely fall before him.”
14 While they were still talking with him, the king’s eunuchs came, and hastened to bring Haman to (J)the banquet which Esther had prepared.

King James Version
6 On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
2 And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
3 And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him.
4 And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
5 And the king's servants said unto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
6 So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?
7 And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour,
8 Let the royal apparel be brought which the king useth to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head:
9 And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
10 Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.
11 Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
12 And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
13 And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.
14 And while they were yet talking with him, came the king's chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the banquet that Esther had prepared.
