Esther 7:7–8:2

7 And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath went into ethe palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was fevil determined against him by the gking. 8 Then the king returned out of ethe palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon gthe bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also †before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face. 9 And hHarbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the †gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, iwho had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon. 10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then kwas the king’s wrath pacified.

8 On that day did the king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews’ enemy unto Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told awhat he was unto her. 2 And the king took off bhis ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
