以斯帖記 7	Esther 7
以斯帖記 7:1 ^ 王帶著哈曼來赴王后以斯帖的筵席．	Esther 7:1 ^ So the king and Haman came to take wine with Esther the queen.
以斯帖記 7:2 ^ 這第二次在酒席筵前、王又問以斯帖說、王后以斯帖阿、你要甚麼、我必賜給你、你求甚麼、就是國的一半、也必為你成就。	Esther 7:2 ^ And the king said to Esther again on the second day, while they were drinking, What is your prayer, Queen Esther? for it will be given to you; and what is your request? for it will be done, even to the half of my kingdom.
以斯帖記 7:3 ^ 王后以斯帖回答說、我若在王眼前蒙恩、王若以為美、我所願的、是願王將我的性命賜給我、我所求的、是求王將我的本族賜給我．	Esther 7:3 ^ Then Esther the queen, answering, said, If I have your approval, O king, and if it is the king's pleasure, let my life be given to me in answer to my prayer, and my people at my request:
以斯帖記 7:4 ^ 因我和我的本族被賣了、要剪除殺戮滅絕我們．我們若被賣為奴為婢、我也閉口不言、但王的損失、敵人萬不能補足。	Esther 7:4 ^ For we are given up, I and my people, to destruction and death and to be cut off. If we had been taken as men-servants and women-servants for a price, I would have said nothing, for our trouble is little in comparison with the king's loss.
以斯帖記 7:5 ^ 亞哈隨魯王問王后以斯帖說、擅敢起意如此行的是誰、這人在哪裡呢。	Esther 7:5 ^ Then King Ahasuerus said to Esther the queen, Who is he and where is he who has had this evil thought in his heart?
以斯帖記 7:6 ^ 以斯帖說、仇人敵人就是這惡人哈曼．哈曼在王和王后面前就甚驚惶。	Esther 7:6 ^ And Esther said, Our hater and attacker is this evil Haman. Then Haman was full of fear before the king and the queen.
以斯帖記 7:7 ^ 王便大怒、起來離開酒席往御園去了．哈曼見王定意要加罪與他、就起來、求王后以斯帖救命。	Esther 7:7 ^ And the king in his wrath got up from the feast and went into the garden: and Haman got to his feet to make a prayer for his life to Esther the queen: for he saw that the king's purpose was evil against him.
以斯帖記 7:8 ^ 王從御園回到酒席之處、見哈曼伏在以斯帖所靠的榻上．王說、他竟敢在宮內、在我面前、凌辱王后麼．這話一出王口、人就蒙了哈曼的臉。	Esther 7:8 ^ Then the king came back from the garden into the room where they had been drinking; and Haman was stretched out on the seat where Esther was. Then the king said, Is he taking the queen by force before my eyes in my house? And while the words were on the king's lips, they put a cloth over Haman's face.
以斯帖記 7:9 ^ 伺候王的一個太監、名叫哈波拿、說、哈曼為那救王有功的末底改、作了五丈高的木架、現今立在哈曼家裡．王說、把哈曼挂在其上。	Esther 7:9 ^ Then Harbonah, one of the unsexed servants waiting before the king, said, See, the pillar fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who said a good word for the king, is still in its place in Haman's house. Then the king said, Put him to death by hanging him on it.
以斯帖記 7:10 ^ 於是人將哈曼挂在他為末底改所豫備的木架上．王的忿怒這纔止息。	Esther 7:10 ^ So Haman was put to death by hanging him on the pillar he had made for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath became less.
