Esther 7

  1 H4428 So the king H2001 and Haman H935 [H8799] came H8354 [H8800] to banquet H635 with Esther H4436 the queen.

  2 H4428 And the king H559 [H8799] said H635 again to Esther H8145 on the second H3117 day H4960 at the banquet H3196 of wine, H7596 What is thy petition, H4436 queen H635 Esther? H5414 [H8735] and it shall be granted H1246 thee: and what is thy request? H6213 [H8735] and it shall be performed, H2677 even to the half H4438 of the kingdom.

  3 H635 Then Esther H4436 the queen H6030 [H8799] answered H559 [H8799] and said, H4672 [H8804] If I have found H2580 favour H5869 in thine eyes, H4428 O king, H2895 [H8804] and if it shall please H4428 the king, H5315 let my life H5414 [H8735] be given H7596 me at my petition, H5971 and my people H1246 at my request:

  4 H4376 [H8738] For we are sold, H5971 I and my people, H8045 [H8687] to be desolated, H2026 [H8800] to be slain, H6 [H8763] and to perish. H432 But if H4376 [H8738] we had been sold H5650 for male H8198 and female slaves, H2790 [H8689] I had held my tongue, H6862 although the constricter H7737 [H8802] could not compensate for H4428 the king's H5143 loss.

  5 H9001 Then H9009 the H4428 king H325 Ahasuerus H559 [H8799] answered H9001 and H559 [H8799] said H9005 to H635 Esther H9009 the H4436 queen, H4310 Who H1931 is he— H2088 this one, H9002 and H335 where H1931 is he— H2088 this one? H834 —whose H3820 heart H4390 [H8804] hath filled H9023 him H9005 to H6213 [H8800] do H3651 so?

  6 H635 And Esther H559 [H8799] said, H376 H6862 The adversary H341 [H8802] and enemy H7451 is this wicked H2001 Haman. H2001 Then Haman H1204 [H8738] was afraid H6440 at the face of H4428 the king H4436 and the queen.

  7 H4428 And the king H6965 [H8804] arising H4960 from the banquet H3196 of wine H2534 in his hot anger H1055 went into the palace H1594 garden: H2001 and Haman H5975 [H8804] stood up H1245 [H8763] to make request H5315 for his life H635 to Esther H4436 the queen; H7200 [H8804] for he saw H7451 that there was evil H3615 [H8804] determined H4428 against him by the king.

  8 H4428 Then the king H7725 [H8804] returned H1055 out of the palace H1594 garden H1004 into the place H4960 of the banquet H3196 of wine; H2001 and Haman H5307 [H8802] had fallen H4296 upon the couch H635 on which Esther H559 [H8799] was. Then said H4428 the king, H3533 [H8800] Will he force H4436 the queen H1004 also before me in the house? H1697 As the word H3318 [H8804] went out H4428 of the king's H6310 mouth, H2645 [H8804] they covered H2001 Haman's H6440 face.

  9 H2726 And Harbonah, H259 one H5631 of the chamberlains, H559 [H8799] said H6440 at the face of H4428 the king, H6086 Behold also, the gallows H2572 fifty H520 cubits H1364 high, H2001 which Haman H6213 [H8804] had made H4782 for Mordecai, H1696 [H8765] who had spoken H2896 good H4428 for the king, H5975 [H8802] standeth H1004 in the house H2001 of Haman. H4428 Then the king H559 [H8799] said, H8518 [H8798] Hang him on it.

  10 H8518 [H8799] So they hanged H2001 Haman H6086 on the gallows H3559 [H8689] that he had prepared H4782 for Mordecai. H4428 Then was the king's H2534 hot anger H7918 [H8804] pacified.
