Esther 5:13-14

NSB(i) 13 »But all this is nothing to me as long as I see Mordecai the Jew seated by the king's gate.« 14 Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him: »Let a pillar, fifty cubits high, be made ready for hanging him. In the morning get the king to give orders for the hanging of Mordecai. Then you will be able to go to the feast with the king with a glad heart.« Haman was pleased with the suggestion, and he had the pillar made.
