10HamanH2001 controlledH662 himself, however, wentH935 to his houseH1004 and 1sentH7971 for his friendsH157 and his wifeH802 2ZereshH2238.
11Then HamanH2001 recountedH5608 to them the gloryH3519 of his richesH6239, and the 34numberH7230 of his sonsH1121, and everyH3605 instance whereH834 the kingH4428 had magnifiedH1431 him and howH834 he had 56promotedH5375 him aboveH5921 the princesH8269 and servantsH5650 of the kingH4428.
12HamanH2001 alsoH637 saidH559, “EvenH637 EstherH635 the queenH4436 let noH3808 one but me comeH935 with the kingH4428 to the banquetH4960 whichH834 she had preparedH6213; and 7tomorrowH4279 alsoH1571 I am 8invitedH7121 by her with the kingH4428.
13Yet allH3605 of thisH2088 9does not satisfyH7737 me everyH3605 timeH6256 I seeH7200 MordecaiH4782 the JewH3064 sittingH3427 at 10the king’sH4428 gateH8179.”
14Then ZereshH2238 his wifeH802 and allH3605 his friendsH157 saidH559 to him, “11Have a 12gallowsH6086 fiftyH2572 cubitsH520 highH1364 madeH6213 and in the morningH1242 askH559 the kingH4428 to have MordecaiH4782 hangedH8518 on it; then goH935 joyfullyH8056 with the kingH4428 to the banquetH4960.” And the 13adviceH1697 pleasedH3190 HamanH2001, so he had the gallowsH6086 madeH6213.
