OET (OET-LV) And_ ʼEştēr _she/it_said if is_on the_king good let_him_come the_king and_Haman the_day to the_feast which I_have_made to_him/it.

OET (OET-RV) “If it pleases your majesty,” Esther replied, “please come with Haman today to the banquet that I’ve prepared for you.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:1–8: Esther went to talk to the king

After Esther had finished fasting, she went to the inner rooms of the palace. The king was pleased to see her and promised to grant any request she might make. So she asked that the king and Haman should come and eat a special meal that she would get her servants to prepare for them. The king agreed.

5:4a

“If it pleases the king,” Esther replied,

If it pleases the king: See note on 1:19a. Here you need to decide if Esther as queen should address Xerxes differently than the male servants did.

5:4b

“may the king and Haman come today to the banquet I have prepared for the king.”

the banquet I have prepared for the king: Because Esther is referring to the king in the third person, “him” refers to the king, not Haman. It is unlikely that Esther cooked the food for the banquet herself, but rather that she ordered her servants to do so. You may need to state this explicitly in your translation.

banquet: See note on 1:9.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

אִם־עַל־הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ ט֑וֹב

if on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=king good

This is an idiom. See how you translated it in 1:19 and 3:9. Alternate translation: [If it seems like a good idea to you, O king]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

אִם־עַל־הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ ט֑וֹב

if on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=king good

Esther speaks to the king in the third person as a sign of respect. Alternate translation: [if it seems like a good idea to you, O king]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

יָב֨וֹא הַ⁠מֶּ֤לֶךְ וְ⁠הָמָן֙

come the=king and,Haman

Esther speaks to the king in the third person as a sign of respect. Alternate translation: [O king, please come with Haman] or [you and Haman come]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

הַ⁠מִּשְׁתֶּ֖ה אֲשֶׁר־עָשִׂ֥יתִי לֽ⁠וֹ

the,feast which/who prepared to=him/it

Esther speaks to the king in the third person as a sign of respect. Alternate translation: [the banquet that I have prepared for you]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

הַ⁠מִּשְׁתֶּ֖ה אֲשֶׁר־עָשִׂ֥יתִי לֽ⁠וֹ

the,feast which/who prepared to=him/it

If you decide to translate this as “the banquet that I have prepared for you,” then the word “you” should be singular, since here it refers just to the king.

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

5:4 If it please the king: Esther showed proper deference (cp. 1:12).
