King James Version

Esther 7:4-6

4For 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.1

5Then 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?2 6And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.34
