Esther 7
1 And he went the king and Haman to drink with Esther the queen.
So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
2 And he said the king to Esther also on the day second at [the] feast of wine what? [is] petition your O Esther the queen so it may be given to you and what? [is] request your up to half of the kingdom and it may be done.
And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What [is] thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what [is] thy request? and it shall be performed, [even] to the half of the kingdom.
3 And she answered Esther the queen and she said if I have found favor in view your O king and if [is] on the king good let it be given to me life my for petition my and people my for request my.
Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request:
4 For we have been sold I and people my to annihilate to kill and to destroy and if to male slaves and to female slaves we had been sold I kept quiet for not the distress [is] equal for [the] injury of the king.
For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king’s damage.
5 And he said the king Ahasuerus and he said to Esther the queen who? [is] he this and where? this [is] he whom it has filled him heart his to do thus.
Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?
6 And she said Esther a man an opponent and an enemy Haman evil this and Haman he was terrified from to before the king and the queen.
And Esther said, The adversary and enemy [is] this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
7 And the king he rose up in rage his from [the] feast of wine into [the] garden of the palace and Haman he remained to seek on life his from Esther the queen for he saw that it was determined against him harm from with the king.
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.
8 And the king he returned from [the] garden of the palace to [the] house of - [the] feast of wine and Haman [was] falling on the couch which Esther [was] on it and he said the king ¿ also to violate the queen with me in the house the word it came out from [the] mouth of the king and [the] face of Haman people covered.
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.
9 And he said Harbona one of the eunuchs before the king also there! the gallows which he has made Haman for Mordecai who he spoke good on the king [is] standing at [the] house of Haman high fifty cubit[s] and he said the king hang him on it.
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.
10 And they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai and [the] rage of the king it subsided.
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.
