Esther 5

5 And on the third day, after putting on her royal robes, Esther stood in the inner court of the royal palace, opposite the king’s house. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the royal palace opposite the entrance, 2 and when he noticed queen Esther standing in the court, she won his favour, he held out to Esther the golden sceptre in his hand, and Esther approached and touched the tip of the sceptre. 3 “What is your wish, queen Esther,” said the king, “what is your request? You shall have it, were it half my kingdom.” 4 Esther said, “If it please the king, let the king and Haman come to-day to a banquet which I have prepared for the king.” 5 “Bring Haman at once,” said the king, “that Esther’s wish may be granted.”

6 So the king and Haman came to the banquet prepared by Esther. As they were at their wine, the king said to Esther, “What is your petition? You shall have it. What is your request? Were it half my kingdom, it shall be done for you.” 7 But Esther replied, “My petition, my request? 8 --well, if I have won favour from the king, if the king be pleased to grant my petition and to agree to my request, let the king and Haman come to a banquet which I will prepare for them, and to-morrow I will speak out as the king has bidden me.”

9 That day Haman went away glad and gratified. When he noticed that Mordecai neither rose up nor trembled before him in the king’s Gate, he was indeed furious with Mordecai, 10 but he restrained himself and went home. Then he sent for his friends and his wife Zeresh, 11 and Haman recounted to them the vastness of his wealth, the number of his children, all the promotion he had received from the king, and how the king had exalted him over the royal officials and courtiers. 12 “Yes,” Haman added, “and queen Esther invited no man except myself along with the king to the banquet she had prepared. And she has invited me again to-morrow along with the king. 13 But all this is no good to me so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s Gate!” 14 Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, “Have a gallows made, eighty feet high; speak to the king to-morrow morning, and let Mordecai be hung on it; then go into the banquet merrily along with the king.” This pleased Haman, and he had the gallows erected.
