6:1

ὁ δὲ κύριος ἀπέστησεν τὸν ὕπνον ἀπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην καὶ εἶπεν τῷ διδασκάλῳ αὐτοῦ εἰσφέρειν γράμματα μνημόσυνα τῶν ἡμερῶν ἀναγινώσκειν αὐτῷ

But the Lord took sleep away from the king that night, and he told his instructor to bring in the memorial writings of the days and read them to him.

那一夜，主使王睡不著覺，王就吩咐教習他的人把記錄每日事蹟的文書拿來，念給他聽。

6:2

εὗρεν δὲ τὰ γράμματα τὰ γραφέντα περὶ Μαρδοχαίου ὡς ἀπήγγειλεν τῷ βασιλεῖ περὶ τῶν δύο εὐνούχων τοῦ βασιλέως ἐν τῷ φυλάσσειν αὐτοὺς καὶ ζητῆσαι ἐπιβαλεῖν τὰς χεῖρας Ἀρταξέρξῃ

And he found the writings that had been written concerning Mordecai, how he had reported to the king about the king's two eunuchs, when they were on guard and sought to lay hands on Artaxerxes.

他查到那記載末底改事蹟的文書，就是末底改怎樣將王的兩個太監的事稟報了王；他們在值班的時候，曾圖謀下手害亞達薛西。

6:3

εἶπεν δὲ ὁ βασιλεύς τίνα δόξαν ἢ χάριν ἐποιήσαμεν τῷ Μαρδοχαίῳ καὶ εἶπαν οἱ διάκονοι τοῦ βασιλέως οὐκ ἐποίησας αὐτῷ οὐδέν

And the king said: What glory or favour did we bestow on Mordecai? And the king's attendants said: You did nothing for him.

王說：我們賜給末底改什麼尊榮和恩典呢？王的僕役說：你並沒有為他作什麼。

6:4

ἐν δὲ τῷ πυνθάνεσθαι τὸν βασιλέα περὶ τῆς εὐνοίας Μαρδοχαίου ἰδοὺ Αμαν ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ εἶπεν δὲ ὁ βασιλεύς τίς ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ ὁ δὲ Αμαν εἰσῆλθεν εἰπεῖν τῷ βασιλεῖ κρεμάσαι τὸν Μαρδοχαῖον ἐπὶ τῷ ξύλῳ ᾧ ἡτοίμασεν

And while the king was inquiring about Mordecai's goodwill, behold, Haman was in the courtyard. And the king said: Who is in the courtyard? Now Haman had come in to tell the king to hang Mordecai on the wood which he had prepared.

王正查問末底改忠心的事，看哪，哈曼就在院中。王說：誰在院中？那時哈曼正進來，要對王說，把末底改掛在他所預備的木架上。

6:5

καὶ εἶπαν οἱ διάκονοι τοῦ βασιλέως ἰδοὺ Αμαν ἕστηκεν ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς καλέσατε αὐτόν

And the king's attendants said: Behold, Haman is standing in the courtyard. And the king said: Call him in.

王的僕役說：看哪，哈曼站在院中。王說：叫他進來。

6:6

εἶπεν δὲ ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Αμαν τί ποιήσω τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ὃν ἐγὼ θέλω δοξάσαι εἶπεν δὲ ἐν ἑαυτῷ Αμαν τίνα θέλει ὁ βασιλεὺς δοξάσαι εἰ μὴ ἐμέ

And the king said to Haman: What shall I do for the man whom I wish to honour? And Haman said within himself: Whom does the king wish to honour if not me?

王對哈曼說：我所願意尊榮的人，當怎樣待他呢？哈曼心裡說：王所願意尊榮的，除我以外還有誰呢？

6:7

εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα ἄνθρωπον ὃν ὁ βασιλεὺς θέλει δοξάσαι

So he said to the king: For a man whom the king wishes to honour,

他就對王說：王所願意尊榮的人，

6:8

ἐνεγκάτωσαν οἱ παῖδες τοῦ βασιλέως στολὴν βυσσίνην ἣν ὁ βασιλεὺς περιβάλλεται καὶ ἵππον ἐφ’ ὃν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐπιβαίνει

let the king's servants bring a robe of fine linen, such as the king puts on, and a horse on which the king rides,

當叫王的僕人拿王所穿的細麻朝服來，和王所騎的馬來，

6:9

καὶ δότω ἑνὶ τῶν φίλων τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν ἐνδόξων καὶ στολισάτω τὸν ἄνθρωπον ὃν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἀγαπᾷ καὶ ἀναβιβασάτω αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸν ἵππον καὶ κηρυσσέτω διὰ τῆς πλατείας τῆς πόλεως λέγων οὕτως ἔσται παντὶ ἀνθρώπῳ ὃν ὁ βασιλεὺς δοξάζει

and let him give them to one of the king's honoured friends, and let him robe the man whom the king loves, and set him upon the horse, and proclaim through the open street of the city, saying: Thus shall it be done for every man whom the king honours.

又把這些交給王一位尊貴的朋友，叫他給王所愛的人穿上，扶他上馬，走遍城中的街市宣告說：王所尊榮的人，都必這樣待他。
