So the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 cameH935 to banquetH8354 with EstherH635 the queen.H4436
2
And the kingH4428 saidH559 againH1571 to EstherH635 on the secondH8145 dayH3117 at the banquetH4960 of wine,H3196 WhatH4100 is your petition,H7596 queenH4436 Esther?H635 and it shall be grantedH5414 you: and whatH4100 is your request?H1246 and it shall be performed,H6213 even to the halfH2677 of the kingdom.H4438
3
Then EstherH635 the queenH4436 answeredH6030 and said,H559 IfH518 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in your sight,H5869 O king,H4428 and ifH518 it pleaseH2895 the king,H4428 let my lifeH5315 be givenH5414 me at my petition,H7596 and my peopleH5971 at my request:H1246
4
For we are sold,H4376 I and my people,H5971 to be destroyed,H8045 to be slain,H2026 and to perish.H6 But ifH432 we had been soldH4376 for slavesH5650 and bondwomen,H8198 I had heldH2790 my tongue,H2790 althoughH3588 the enemyH6862 could not countervailH7737 the king'sH4428 damage.H5143
5
Then the kingH4428 AhasuerusH325 answeredH559 and saidH559 to EstherH635 the queen,H4436 WhoH4310 is he, and whereH335 is he, that dared presumeH4390 in his heartH3820 to doH6213 so?H3651
6
And EstherH635 said,H559 The adversaryH6862 and enemyH341 is thisH2088 wickedH7451 Haman.H2001 Then HamanH2001 was afraidH1204 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 and the queen.H4436
7
And the kingH4428 arisingH6965 from the banquetH4960 of wineH3196 in his wrathH2534 went intoH413 the palaceH1055 garden:H1594 and HamanH2001 stoodH5975 up to make requestH1245 for his lifeH5315 to EstherH635 the queen;H4436 for he sawH7200 that there was evilH7451 determinedH3615 againstH413 him by the king.H4428
8
Then the kingH4428 returnedH7725 out of the palaceH1055 gardenH1594 intoH413 the placeH1004 of the banquetH4960 of wine;H3196 and HamanH2001 was fallenH5307 on the bedH4296 where onH834 H5921 EstherH635 was. Then saidH559 the king,H4428 Will he forceH3533 the queenH4436 alsoH1571 beforeH5973 me in the house?H1004 As the wordH1697 wentH3318 out of king'sH4428 mouth,H6310 they coveredH2645 Haman'sH2001 face.H6440
9
And Harbonah,H2726 oneH259 of the chamberlains,H5631 saidH559 beforeH6440 the king,H4428 BeholdH2009 also,H1571 the gallowsH6086 fiftyH2572 cubitsH520 high,H1364 whichH834 HamanH2001 had madeH6213 for Mordecai,H4782 whoH834 spokenH1696 goodH2896 for the king,H4428 standsH5975 in the houseH1004 of Haman.H2001 Then the kingH4428 said,H559 HangH8518 him thereon.H5921
10
So they hangedH8518 HamanH2001 onH5921 the gallowsH6086 that he had preparedH3559 for Mordecai.H4782 Then was the king'sH4428 wrathH2534 pacified.H7918
