Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְהַמֶּ֜לֶךְ קָ֤ם בַּחֲמָתוֹ֙ מִמִּשְׁתֵּ֣ה הַיַּ֔יִן
and,the,king arose in/on/at/with,anger,his from,drinking the,wine

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אֶל־גִּנַּ֖ת הַבִּיתָ֑ן
to/towards garden the,palace
The implication is that Ahasuerus went outside to absorb the shock that a man he had promoted to the highest position in his empire was plotting to destroy his queen and her whole people. Ahasuerus needed to sort out his conflicting loyalties and decide what to do about this. If it would be misunderstood, you could say explicitly why he went outside. Alternate translation: “he went outside to the palace garden to decide what to do.”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
לְבַקֵּ֤שׁ עַל־נַפְשׁוֹ֙
to,beg on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in life,his
Here, seeking means to beg or plead urgently for something. This phrase means that Haman wanted to beg Esther to persuade the king not to order his execution. Alternate translation: “to plead with Queen Esther to spare his life”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
כִּ֣י רָאָ֔ה
that/for/because/then/when saw
Here, seeing is a metaphor for knowledge, notice, attention, or judgment. Alternate translation: “he realized” or “he understood”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
כָלְתָ֥ה אֵלָ֛יו הָרָעָ֖ה מֵאֵ֥ת הַמֶּֽלֶךְ
determined to=him/it the,harm from,with the,king
You can say this with an active form. Alternate translation: “the king had decided to cause a disaster against him” or “the king was decided to destroy him” or “the king had decided to kill him”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
כָלְתָ֥ה אֵלָ֛יו הָרָעָ֖ה מֵאֵ֥ת הַמֶּֽלֶךְ
determined to=him/it the,harm from,with the,king
Here the abstract noun evil means “harm,” not something that is morally wrong as in the previous verse. In this context, it can be expressed with a verb such as “execute.” Alternate translation: “the king was likely to execute him”
7:6-7 Esther finally identified this wicked Haman as the enemy.
• Haman grew pale with fright: With this surprising and aggressive accusation by the queen and the evident rage of the king, Haman’s doom suddenly became apparent.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
