Nevertheless
Haman refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
Nevertheless,
Haman restrained himself and went home. And calling for his friends and his wife Zeresh,
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 recounted to them his glorious wealth, his many sons, and all the ways the king had honored and promoted him over the other officials and servants.
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.
“What is more,”
Haman added, “Queen
Esther invited no one but me to join the king at the
banquet she prepared, and I am invited back
tomorrow along with the king.
His wife Zeresh and all his friends told him, “Have them build a
gallows fifty cubits high, and ask the king in the morning to have
Mordecai hanged on it. Then go to the
banquet with the king and enjoy
yourself.” The advice pleased
Haman, and he had the
gallows constructed.
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.
“Who is in the court?” the king asked. Now
Haman had just entered the outer court of the palace to ask the king to
hang Mordecai on the
gallows he had prepared for him.
And the king’s servants said unto him, Behold,
Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
So the king’s attendants answered him, “
Haman is there, standing in the court.” “Bring him in,” ordered the king.
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 entered, and the king asked him, “What should be done for the man whom the king is delighted to honor?” Now
Haman thought to himself, “Whom would the king be delighted to honor more than me?”
And
Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour,
And
Haman told the king, “For the man whom the king is delighted to honor,
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.
“
Hurry,” said the king to
Haman, “and do just as you proposed. Take the
robe and the horse to
Mordecai the
Jew, who is sitting at the king’s gate. Do not neglect anything that you have suggested.”
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.
So
Haman took the
robe and the horse,
arrayed Mordecai, and
paraded him through the city square, crying out before him, “This is what is done for the man whom the king is delighted to honor!”
And
Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But
Haman hasted to his house
mourning, and having his head covered.
Then
Mordecai returned to the king’s gate. But
Haman rushed home, with his head covered in grief.
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 prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.
Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened. His advisers and his wife Zeresh said to him, “Since
Mordecai, before whom your
downfall has begun, is Jewish, you will not prevail against him—for surely you will fall before him.”
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.
While they were still speaking with
Haman, the king’s eunuchs arrived and
rushed him to the
banquet that
Esther had prepared.
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.
In his
fury, the king arose from drinking his wine and went to the palace garden, while
Haman stayed behind to
beg Queen
Esther for his life, for he realized that the king was
planning a terrible fate for him.
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.
Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the
banquet hall,
Haman was falling on the
couch where
Esther was
reclining. The king
exclaimed, “Would he actually
assault the queen while I am in the palace?” As soon as the words had left the king’s mouth, they covered
Haman’s face.
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
thereon.
Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said: “There is a
gallows fifty cubits high at
Haman’s house. He had it built for
Mordecai, who gave the report that saved the king.” “
Hang him on it!” declared the king.
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.
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.
And once again,
Esther addressed the king. She fell at his feet
weeping and
begged him to
revoke the evil scheme of
Haman the Agagite, which he had devised against the Jews.
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 Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews which are in all the king’s provinces:
“If it pleases the king,” she said, “and if I have found favor in his sight, and the matter seems proper to the king, and I am pleasing in his sight, may an order be written to
revoke the letters that the scheming
Haman son of
Hammedatha, the Agagite, wrote to destroy the Jews in all the king’s provinces.
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.
They killed these ten sons of
Haman son of
Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, but they did not lay a hand on the
plunder.
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 shall be granted thee: or what is thy request further? and it shall be done.
who said to Queen
Esther, “In the citadel of
Susa the Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men, including
Haman’s ten sons. What have they done in the rest of the royal provinces? Now what is your petition? It will be given to you. And what further do you request? It will be fulfilled.”
Then said
Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews which are in
Shushan to do to
morrow also according unto this day’s decree, and let
Haman’s ten sons be
hanged upon the
gallows.
And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at
Shushan; and they
hanged Haman’s ten sons.
So the king commanded that this be done. An edict was issued in
Susa, and they
hanged the ten sons of
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;
For
Haman son of
Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had
plotted against the Jews to destroy them and had cast the
Pur (that is, the lot) to
crush and destroy them.
But when
Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked
device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be
hanged on the
gallows.
But when it came before the king, he commanded by letter that the wicked scheme which
Haman had devised against the Jews should come back upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be
hanged on the
gallows.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the
remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from

So the
carpenter encouraged the
goldsmith, and he that smootheth with the
hammer him that
smote the
anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he fastened it with
nails, that it should not be moved.
The smith with the
tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with
hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms:
yea, he is
hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is
faint.
The
blacksmith takes a tool and labors over the coals; he fashions an
idol with
hammers and forges it with his strong arms. Yet he grows
hungry and loses his strength; he fails to drink water and grows
faint.
They deck it with silver and with gold; they
fasten it with
nails and with
hammers, that it move not.

Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take
Baruch the
scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the LORD
hid them.
Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, as well as Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel, to seize
Baruch the
scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the LORD had hidden them.
Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the
dungeon of Malchiah the son of
Hammelech, that was in the court of the prison: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the
dungeon there was no water, but
mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the
mire.
So they took Jeremiah and dropped him into the
cistern of Malchiah, the king’s son, which was in the
courtyard of the guard. They lowered Jeremiah with ropes into the
cistern, which had no water but only mud, and Jeremiah
sank down into the mud.

bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of
Hamon-

Hamonah.) And so they will
cleanse the land.
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of

hamath to Zedad, Berothah, and Sibraim (which is on the border between Damascus and
Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of

The smith also sitting by the
anvil, and considering the iron work, the vapour of the fire wasteth his flesh, and he fighteth with the heat of the furnace: the noise of the
hammer and the
anvil is ever in his ears, and his eyes look still upon the pattern of the thing that he maketh; he setteth his mind to finish his work, and watcheth to polish it perfectly:
