Esther 5:9-13

9Then wentH3318 HamanH2001 forthH3318 that dayH3117 joyfulH8056 and glad of heartH3820: but when HamanH2001 sawH7200 MordecaiH4782 in the king’sH4428 gateH8179, that he stoodH6965 not up nor moved for him, he was filledH4390 with wrathH2534 against MordecaiH4782. 10Nevertheless HamanH2001 refrained himself, and wentH935 home; and he sentH7971 and fetched his friendsH157 and ZereshH2238 his wifeH802. 11And HamanH2001 recountedH5608 unto them the gloryH3519 of his richesH6239, and the multitudeH7230 of his children, and all the things wherein the kingH4428 had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princesH8269 and servantsH5650 of the kingH4428. 12HamanH2001 saidH559 moreover, Yea, EstherH635 the queenH4436 did let no man comeH935 in with the kingH4428 unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to-morrow alsoH1571 am I invited by her together with the kingH4428. 13Yet all this availeth me nothingH369, so long as I seeH7200 MordecaiH4782 the JewH3064 sittingH3427 at the king’sH4428 gateH8179.
