Estè 5
Haitian Creole Version
5 ¶ Sou twazyèm jou a, Estè mete rad larenn li sou li, li ale, li kanpe nan lakou anndan palè a, devan salon wa a. Wa a te chita sou fòtèy li anndan salon an anfas pòt pou antre a.
2 Lè wa a wè larenn Estè kanpe deyò a, sa te fè kè l' kontan, li lonje baton an lò ki te nan men l' lan ba li. Estè antre, li manyen pwent baton an.
3 Wa a mande l': -Sa ki genyen, larenn Estè? Sa ou bezwen? Ou te mèt mande m' mwatye nan peyi a, m'ap ba ou li.
4 Estè reponn li: -Si sa fè wa a plezi, mwen ta renmen wa a vini ansanm ak Aman nan yon ti fèt m'ap fè pou li lakay mwen aswè a.
5 Lamenm wa a di: -Kouri vit al chache Aman pou n' al kay Estè ki envite nou. Se konsa, wa a ale nan ti fèt Estè te fè pou li a ansanm ak Aman.
6 Pandan yo t'ap bwè diven, wa a mande Estè konsa: -Di m' sa ou vle, m'ap ba ou li. Ou te mèt mande m' mwatye nan peyi a, m'ap ba ou li.
7 Estè reponn, li di konsa: -Sa m' bezwen...? Sa m' ta mande ou...?
8 Si wa a kontan avè m', si se plezi li pou li ban m' sa m' vle a, pou li fè sa m'a mande l' fè a. mwen ta renmen wa a ansanm ak Aman vini denmen lakay mwen pou yon lòt ti fèt m'ap fè pou li ansanm ak Aman. Lè sa a, m'a di monwa sa m' bezwen.
9 ¶ Jou sa a, lè Aman soti nan fèt la, li te kontan, li t'ap ri ak tout moun. Men, lè li rive bò pòtay palè a, li wè Madoche pa menm fè yon rimay leve lè l'ap pase. Li move anpil sou Madoche,
10 men li pa kite moun wè sa, epi li al lakay li. Lèfini, li fè chache zanmi l' yo, epi li mande madanm li Zerès pou li vini tou.
11 Aman konmanse pale devan yo, li di yo jan li rich, jan li gen lajan, konbe pitit gason li genyen, jan wa a te moute l' grad, li te mete l' chèf anwo tout lòt chèf ak tout lòt moun k'ap sèvi nan gouvenman an.
12 Lèfini, li di: -Sa ki pi rèd, larenn Estè fè fèt pou wa a, kilès ou kwè li envite? Mwen menm ase, pèsonn ankò! Men li envite m' pou denmen ankò!
13 Men, tou sa pa di m' anyen, toutotan m'a wè jwif yo rele Madoche a chita nan papòt palè wa a.
14 Lè sa a, Zerès, madanm li, ak tout zanmi l' yo di l' konsa: -Poukisa ou pa fè yo kanpe yon poto swasannkenz pye wotè nan lakou lakay ou? Denmen maten, w'a mande wa a pou yo pann Madoche nan poto a. Apre sa, wa va ale nan fèt la ak kè kontan. Aman wè se te yon bon lide yo te ba li la a. Li fè kanpe yon poto swasannkenz pye wotè nan lakou lakay li.

Esther’s Request to the King
5 On the third day Esther put on her royal robes(A) and stood in the inner court of the palace, in front of the king’s(B) hall. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the hall, facing the entrance. 2 When he saw Queen Esther standing in the court, he was pleased with her and held out to her the gold scepter that was in his hand. So Esther approached and touched the tip of the scepter.(C)
3 Then the king asked, “What is it, Queen Esther? What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom,(D) it will be given you.”
4 “If it pleases the king,” replied Esther, “let the king, together with Haman, come today to a banquet I have prepared for him.”
5 “Bring Haman at once,” the king said, “so that we may do what Esther asks.”
So the king and Haman went to the banquet Esther had prepared. 6 As they were drinking wine,(E) the king again asked Esther, “Now what is your petition? It will be given you. And what is your request? Even up to half the kingdom,(F) it will be granted.”(G)
7 Esther replied, “My petition and my request is this: 8 If the king regards me with favor(H) and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, let the king and Haman come tomorrow to the banquet(I) I will prepare for them. Then I will answer the king’s question.”
Haman’s Rage Against Mordecai
9 Haman went out that day happy and in high spirits. But when he saw Mordecai at the king’s gate and observed that he neither rose nor showed fear in his presence, he was filled with rage(J) against Mordecai.(K) 10 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went home.
Calling together his friends and Zeresh,(L) his wife, 11 Haman boasted(M) to them about his vast wealth, his many sons,(N) and all the ways the king had honored him and how he had elevated him above the other nobles and officials. 12 “And that’s not all,” Haman added. “I’m the only person(O) Queen Esther invited to accompany the king to the banquet she gave. And she has invited me along with the king tomorrow. 13 But all this gives me no satisfaction as long as I see that Jew Mordecai sitting at the king’s gate.(P)”
14 His wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, “Have a pole set up, reaching to a height of fifty cubits,[a](Q) and ask the king in the morning to have Mordecai impaled(R) on it. Then go with the king to the banquet and enjoy yourself.” This suggestion delighted Haman, and he had the pole set up.
