    7The king, filled with wrath, got up from the wine banquet and went out to the palace garden. But Haman stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life, for he saw that the king had already decided his doom.

    8When the king returned from the palace garden to the house of the wine banquet, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was. The king exclaimed, "Will he even assault the queen in my own house?" As the words left the king’s mouth, Haman’s face was covered.

    9Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said, "Look! The gallows that Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke up for the king’s benefit, is standing at Haman’s house, fifty cubits tall." The king said, "Hang him on it!"

    10So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath subsided.

    2The king removed his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther appointed Mordecai over Haman’s estate.

    3Esther spoke again to the king, falling at his feet, weeping, and pleading with him to nullify the evil plan of Haman the Agagite and the scheme he had devised against the Jews.

    4The king extended the golden scepter to Esther, so she arose and stood before the king.

    5She said, 'If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and if the matter seems right to the king, and if I am pleasing in his eyes, let a decree be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman, son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews in all the king’s provinces.'

    12Afterward, Mordecai returned to the king’s gate, but Haman hurried to his house, mourning and with his head covered in shame.

    13Haman recounted everything that had happened to him to Zeresh, his wife, and all his friends. His advisors and Zeresh, his wife, said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him. You will surely fall before him."

    11Haman recounted to them the splendor of his wealth, the number of his sons, and all the ways the king had honored him and how he had elevated him above the officials and servants of the king.

    12And Haman said, "What’s more, Queen Esther invited no one but me to accompany the king to the banquet she prepared. And I am invited again to dine with her and the king tomorrow."

    13But all this gives me no satisfaction as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.

    14His wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Have a gallows constructed, seventy-five feet high, and in the morning suggest to the king that Mordecai be hanged on it. Then go with the king to the banquet and enjoy yourself." This suggestion pleased Haman, and he had the gallows built.

    5When Haman saw that Mordecai would not bow down or pay homage to him, he was filled with rage.

    7In the first month, the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, the lot) before Haman for each day and each month, until the twelfth month, the month of Adar.

    8Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a certain people scattered and separated among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom. Their laws differ from those of every other people, and they do not obey the king’s laws. Therefore, it is not beneficial for the king to tolerate them.
