Pinarangalan si Mordecai
6 Nang gabing iyon, hindi makatulog si Haring Xerxes. Ipinakuha niya ang aklat ng mahahalagang pangyayari sa kaharian at ipinabasa ito habang siya'y nakikinig. 2 Nabasa(A) ang bahagi ng kasaysayan tungkol sa pagkatuklas ni Mordecai sa masamang balak ng mga eunukong sina Bigtan at Teres na patayin ang Haring Xerxes. 3 Dahil dito, itinanong ng hari, “Anong gantimpala o pagpaparangal ang ginawa kay Mordecai dahil sa kabutihang ginawa niya sa akin?”
Sumagot ang mga tagapaglingkod, “Wala po.”
4 Nagtanong ang hari, “Sino ba ang nasa bulwagan?”
Samantala, noon ay papasok sa bulwagan si Haman upang sabihin sa hari na maaari nang bitayin si Mordecai sa ipinagawa niyang bitayan. 5 Sinabi ng mga tagapaglingkod ng hari, “Si Haman po.”
At sinabi ng hari, “Palapitin ninyo siya rito.”
6 Lumapit naman si Haman. Itinanong sa kanya ng hari, “Ano ang dapat gawin sa sinumang ibig parangalan ng hari?”
Akala ni Haman ay siya ang tinutukoy ng hari, 7 kaya sinabi niya, “Ganito po: 8 Ipakuha ninyo ang damit na inyong isinuot at ang kabayong inyong sinakyan nang kayo'y koronahan bilang hari. 9 Ang damit ay ibigay sa isa sa mga pangunahing pinuno ng kaharian para isuot sa pararangalan. Pagkatapos, isakay sa kabayo at ilibot sa buong lunsod habang isinisigaw ang: ‘Ito ang ginagawa sa taong pinaparangalan ng hari!’”
10 Sinabi ng hari kay Haman, “Kung gayon, kunin mo ang aking damit at ang aking kabayo. Lahat ng sinabi mo'y gawin mo kay Mordecai, ang Judiong nakaupo sa may pintuan ng palasyo.”
11 Kinuha nga ni Haman ang damit at ang kabayo ng hari. Binihisan niya si Mordecai, isinakay sa kabayo at inilibot sa buong lunsod habang isinisigaw niyang, “Ito ang ginagawa sa taong pinaparangalan ng hari.”
12 Pagkatapos nito, nagbalik si Mordecai sa may pintuan ng palasyo. Nagmamadali namang umuwi si Haman, at pagdating sa bahay ay nanangis at nagtalukbong dahil sa inabot na kahihiyan. 13 Ang nangyari'y isinalaysay ni Haman sa asawa niyang si Zeres at sa kanyang mga tagapayo.[a] Sinabi sa kanya ng kanyang mga tagapayo at ng kanyang asawa, “Kung Judio nga si Mordecai, na siyang dahilan ng iyong panghihina, hindi mo siya madadaig, kundi ikaw pa ang dadaigin niya.”
14 Nag-uusap pa sila nang dumating ang mga sugo ng hari at nagmamadaling isinama si Haman sa handaan ni Ester.

Mordecai Honored
6 That night the king could not sleep;(A) so he ordered the book of the chronicles,(B) the record of his reign, to be brought in and read to him. 2 It was found recorded there that Mordecai had exposed Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s officers who guarded the doorway, who had conspired to assassinate King Xerxes.(C)
3 “What honor and recognition has Mordecai received for this?” the king asked.
“Nothing has been done for him,”(D) his attendants answered.
4 The king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the palace to speak to the king about impaling Mordecai on the pole he had set up for him.
5 His attendants answered, “Haman is standing in the court.”
“Bring him in,” the king ordered.
6 When Haman entered, the king asked him, “What should be done for the man the king delights to honor?”
Now Haman thought to himself, “Who is there that the king would rather honor than me?” 7 So he answered the king, “For the man the king delights to honor, 8 have them bring a royal robe(E) the king has worn and a horse(F) the king has ridden, one with a royal crest placed on its head. 9 Then let the robe and horse be entrusted to one of the king’s most noble princes. Let them robe the man the king delights to honor, and lead him on the horse through the city streets, proclaiming before him, ‘This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!(G)’”
10 “Go at once,” the king commanded Haman. “Get the robe and the horse and do just as you have suggested for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king’s gate. Do not neglect anything you have recommended.”
11 So Haman got(H) the robe and the horse. He robed Mordecai, and led him on horseback through the city streets, proclaiming before him, “This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!”
12 Afterward Mordecai returned to the king’s gate. But Haman rushed home, with his head covered(I) in grief, 13 and told Zeresh(J) his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him.
His advisers and his wife Zeresh said to him, “Since Mordecai, before whom your downfall(K) has started, is of Jewish origin, you cannot stand against him—you will surely come to ruin!”(L) 14 While they were still talking with him, the king’s eunuchs arrived and hurried Haman away to the banquet(M) Esther had prepared.
