17:006:012 And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate.  But Haman hasted
           to his house mourning, and having his head covered.

17:006:013 And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing
           that had befallen him.  Then said his wise men and Zeresh his
           wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before
           whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against
           him, but shalt surely fall before him.

17:006:014 And while they were yet talking with him, came the king’s
           chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the banquet that
           Esther had prepared.

17:007:001 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.

17:007:002 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.

17:007:003 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: 

17:007:004 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.

17:007:005 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?

17:007:006 And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. 
           Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.

17:007:007 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.

17:007:008 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
           king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.

17:007:009 And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king,
           Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had
           made for Mordecai, who spoken good for the king, standeth in
           the house of Haman.  Then the king said, Hang him thereon.

17:007:010 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for
           Mordecai.  Then was the king’s wrath pacified.
