Esther 7

  1 H4428 So the king H2001 and Haman H935 came H8354 to banquet H635 with Esther H4436 the queen.

  2 H4428 And the king H559 said H1571 again H635 to Esther H8145 on the second H3117 day H4960 at the banquet H3196 of wine, H4100 What H7596 is your petition, H4436 queen H635 Esther? H5414 and it shall be granted H4100 you: and what H1246 is your request? H6213 and it shall be performed, H2677 even to the half H4438 of the kingdom.

  3 H635 Then Esther H4436 the queen H6030 answered H559 and said, H518 If H4672 I have found H2580 favor H5869 in your sight, H4428 O king, H518 and if H2895 it please H4428 the king, H5315 let my life H5414 be given H7596 me at my petition, H5971 and my people H1246 at my request:

  4 H4376 For we are sold, H5971 I and my people, H8045 to be destroyed, H2026 to be slain, H6 and to perish. H432 But if H4376 we had been sold H5650 for slaves H8198 and bondwomen, H2790 I had held H2790 my tongue, H3588 although H6862 the enemy H7737 could not countervail H4428 the king’s H5143 damage.

  5 H4428 Then the king H325 Ahasuerus H559 answered H559 and said H635 to Esther H4436 the queen, H4310 Who H335 is he, and where H4390 is he, that dared presume H3820 in his heart H6213 to do H3651 so?

  6 H635 And Esther H559 said, H6862 The adversary H341 and enemy H2088 is this H7451 wicked H2001 Haman. H2001 Then Haman H1204 was afraid H6440 before H4428 the king H4436 and the queen.

  7 H4428 And the king H6965 arising H4960 from the banquet H3196 of wine H2534 in his wrath H413 went into H1055 the palace H1594 garden: H2001 and Haman H5975 stood H1245 up to make request H5315 for his life H635 to Esther H4436 the queen; H7200 for he saw H7451 that there was evil H3615 determined H413 against H4428 him by the king.

  8 H4428 Then the king H7725 returned H1055 out of the palace H1594 garden H413 into H1004 the place H4960 of the banquet H3196 of wine; H2001 and Haman H5307 was fallen H4296 on the bed H834 where on H5921 H635 Esther H559 was. Then said H4428 the king, H3533 Will he force H4436 the queen H1571 also H5973 before H1004 me in the house? H1697 As the word H3318 went H4428 out of king’s H6310 mouth, H2645 they covered H2001 Haman’s H6440 face.

  9 H2726 And Harbonah, H259 one H5631 of the chamberlains, H559 said H6440 before H4428 the king, H2009 Behold H1571 also, H6086 the gallows H2572 fifty H520 cubits H1364 high, H834 which H2001 Haman H6213 had made H4782 for Mordecai, H834 who H1696 spoken H2896 good H4428 for the king, H5975 stands H1004 in the house H2001 of Haman. H4428 Then the king H559 said, H8518 Hang H5921 him thereon.

  10 H8518 So they hanged H2001 Haman H5921 on H6086 the gallows H3559 that he had prepared H4782 for Mordecai. H4428 Then was the king’s H2534 wrath H7918 pacified.
