haman After these things did king Ahasuerus promote {Haman} the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes that [were] with him. haman And all the king's servants, that [were] in the king's gate, bowed, and reverenced {Haman}: for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai bowed not, nor did [him] reverence. haman Now it came to pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told {Haman}, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told them that he [was] a Jew. haman And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was {Haman} full of wrath. haman And when {Haman} saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath. haman And he thought scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had showed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore {Haman} sought to destroy all the Jews that [were] throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, [even] the people of Mordecai. haman In the first month, that [is], the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that [is], the lot, before {Haman} from day to day, and from month to month, [to] the twelfth [month], that [is], the month Adar. haman And {Haman} said unto king Ahasuerus, There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws [are] diverse from all people; neither keep they the king's laws: therefore it [is] not for the king's profit to suffer them. haman And the king took his ring from his hand, and gave it unto {Haman} the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews' enemy. haman And the king said unto {Haman}, The silver [is] given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee. haman Then were the king's scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and there was written according to all that {Haman} had commanded unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors that [were] over every province, and to the rulers of every people of every province according to the writing thereof, and [to] every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and sealed with the king's ring. haman The posts went out, being hastened by the king's commandment, and the decree was given in Shushan the palace. And the king and {Haman} sat down to drink; but the city Shushan was perplexed. haman And Mordecai told him of all that had happened unto him, and of the sum of the money that {Haman} had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the Jews, to destroy them. haman And Esther answered, If [it seem] good unto the king, let the king and {Haman} come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him. haman Then the king said, Cause {Haman} to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared. haman Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and {Haman} came to the banquet that Esther had prepared. haman If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and {Haman} come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hat h said. haman Then went Haman forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when {Haman} saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai. haman Then went {Haman} forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai. haman Nevertheless {Haman} refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife. haman And {Haman} told them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all [the things] wherein the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king. haman {Haman} said moreover, Yea, Esther the queen did let no man come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to morrow am I invited unto her also with the king. haman Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And th e thing pleased {Haman}; and he caused the gallows to be made. haman And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now {Haman} was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. haman And the king's servants said unto him, Behold, {Haman} standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in. haman So {Haman} came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself? haman So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now {Haman} thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself? haman And {Haman} answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour, haman Then the king said to {Haman}, Make haste, [and] take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken. haman Then took {Haman} the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour. haman And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But {Haman} hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered. haman And {Haman} told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every [thing] that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai [be] of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not p revail against him, but shalt surely fall before him. haman And while they [were] yet talking with him, came the king's chamberlains, and hasted to bring {Haman} unto the banquet that Esther had prepared. haman So the king and {Haman} came to banquet with Esther the queen. haman And Esther said, The adversary and enemy [is] this wicked {Haman}. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen. haman And Esther said, The adversary and enemy [is] this wicked Haman. Then {Haman} was afraid before the king and the queen. haman And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath [went] into the palace garden: and {Haman} stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king. haman Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and {Haman} was fallen upon the 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. haman And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which {Haman} had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him th ereon. haman And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of {Haman}. Then the king said, Hang him th ereon. haman So they hanged {Haman} on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified. haman 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 what he [was] unto her. haman And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from {Haman}, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman. haman And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of {Haman}. haman And Esther spake yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of {Haman} the Agagite, and his device that he had devised against the Jews. haman And said, If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and the thing [seem] right before the king, and I [be] pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by {Haman} the son of Hammedatha the Ag agite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews which [are] in all the king's provinces: haman Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of {Haman}, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews. haman The ten sons of {Haman} the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, slew they; but on the spoil laid they not their hand. haman And the king said unto Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of {Haman}; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? now what [is] thy petition? and it sh all be granted thee: or what [is] thy request further? and it shall be done. haman Because {Haman} the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that [is], the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them; ~~~~~~
