9and Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,
10the ten sons of Haman, the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews. But they did not lay their hands on the plunder.
11That day, the number of those killed in the citadel of Susa was reported to the king.
13Esther replied, "If it pleases the king, let the Jews in Susa be allowed to act again tomorrow according to today's decree, and let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows."
14So the king commanded that it be done. A decree was issued in Susa, and they hanged the ten sons of Haman.
15The Jews in Susa gathered together again on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and they killed three hundred men in Susa. But they did not lay their hands on the plunder.

7King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, 'Behold, I have given Haman’s estate to Esther, and he has been hanged on the gallows because he attacked the Jews.'
24For Haman, the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted to destroy them. He cast the pur—that is, the lot—to crush and annihilate them.
25But when the matter came before the king, he ordered by letter that the wicked scheme Haman had devised against the Jews should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
26That is why these days were called Purim, from the word pur. Therefore, because of everything written in this letter, and because of what they had witnessed and what had happened to them,
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.'
3Then the king asked her, "What is it, Queen Esther? What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be given to you."
4Esther replied, "If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come today to the banquet I have prepared for him."
5The king said, "Bring Haman quickly, so we may do as Esther asks." So the king and Haman went to the banquet Esther had prepared.
6As they were drinking wine at the banquet, the king again asked Esther, "What is your petition? It will be given to you. And what is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be done."
7Esther answered, "This is my petition and my request:
8If I have found favor in the king’s eyes and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet I will prepare for them tomorrow. Then I will answer the king’s question."
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.
9If it pleases the king, let a decree be written to destroy them, and I will weigh out ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who carry out the work, to be deposited in the king’s treasuries."
10So the king removed his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.
11The king said to Haman, "The silver is given to you, as well as the people, to do with them as it seems good to you."
12On the thirteenth day of the first month, the king’s scribes were summoned and an edict was written according to all that Haman commanded. It was addressed to the satraps of the king, to the governors of each province, and to the officials of every people, to each province in its script and to each people in its language. It was written in the name of King Ahasuerus and sealed with the king’s signet ring.

5King Ahasuerus asked Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is the one who has dared to do this?"

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!"
2On the second day, during the wine banquet, the king said to Esther, "What is your request, Queen Esther? It will be granted to you. And what is your petition? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be done."
3Queen Esther replied, "If I have found favor in your eyes, O king, and if it pleases the king, grant me my life—this is my request—and spare my people—this is my petition.
7Mordecai told him everything that had happened to him, including the exact amount of money Haman had promised to pay into the king's treasury for the destruction of the Jews.
8He also gave him a copy of the text of the decree issued in Susa for their destruction, so that Hathach could show it to Esther and explain it to her, urging her to go to the king, plead for mercy, and intercede for her people.
1On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, the king’s decree and command were to be carried out. On the day the enemies of the Jews had hoped to dominate them, the situation was reversed, and the Jews gained mastery over those who hated them.
2The Jews gathered in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus to strike those who sought their harm. No one could stand against them, for the fear of them had fallen upon all the people.
1On that day, King Ahasuerus gave Queen Esther the estate of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came into the king’s presence because Esther had revealed how he was related to her.
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.
11The king’s decree gave the Jews in every city the right to assemble and defend themselves, to destroy, kill, and annihilate any armed force of any people or province that might attack them, including women and children, and to plunder their possessions.
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."
6But he considered it beneath him to attack Mordecai alone, for they had told him about Mordecai’s people. So Haman sought to destroy all the Jews throughout the kingdom of Ahasuerus, the people of Mordecai.
12When Mordecai was informed of what Esther said,
10Then the king said to Haman, "Go quickly and take the robe and the horse, as you have suggested, and do so for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king’s gate. Do not neglect anything that you have said."
14While they were still talking with him, the king’s eunuchs arrived and hurried Haman away to the banquet Esther had prepared.
4The king asked, "Who is in the courtyard?" Now Haman had just entered the outer courtyard of the king’s palace to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows he had prepared for him.
5The king’s servants said to him, "Haman is standing in the courtyard." The king said, "Let him come in."
5Then Esther summoned Hathach, one of the king’s eunuchs appointed to attend her, and ordered him to find out what was troubling Mordecai and why.
