1902 Rotherham's Emphasized Bible (EBR)Esther 71 Esther intertaining the king and Haman, maketh suit for her owne life, and her people's. 5 She accuseth Haman. 7 The king in his anger understanding of the gallows, which Haman had made for Mordecai, causeth him to be hanged thereon. 7:1 ¶ So the king and Haman came in, to banquet with Esther the queen. 7:2 Then said the king unto Esther, on the second day also, during the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, Queen Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what is thy requestunto the half of the kingdomthat it may be performed? 7:3 Then answered Esther the queen, and said, If I have found favour in thine eyes, O king, and if, unto the king, it seem good, let my life be granted me, as my petition, and my people, as my request; 7:4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain and to be caused to perish. If indeed, for bondmen and for bondwomen, we had been sold, I had held my peace, although the adversary could not have made good the damage to the king. 7:5 Then spake King Ahasuerus, and said unto Esther the queen,Who is he now, and where is he, whose heart is set to act thus? 7:6 And Esther said, A man who is an adversary and enemy, this wicked Haman. And, Haman, was terrified, before the king and the queen. 7:7 ¶ Now, the king, arising in his wrath from the banquet of wine, and going into the palace garden, Haman, stood to make request for his life from Esther the queen, for he saw that ruin, was determined against him, by the king. 7:8 When, the king, returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine, Haman, was lying prostrate upon the couch whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he, even dare to force the queen, while I am in the house? No sooner had the word gone forth out of the mouth of the king, than, the face of Haman, they had covered. 7:9 Then said Harbonahone of the eunuchs before the kingYea lo! the gallows that Haman made ready for Mordecai, who had spoken well for the king, is standing in Haman's house, of a height of fifty cubits. Then said the king, Hang him thereon. 7:10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai,and, the wrath of the king, was appeased. |
