Esther 9:24-25

24For Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the adversary of all the Jews, had schemed against the Jews to eliminate them, and 1had cast Pur, that is the lot, to disturb them and eliminate them.

25But 2when it came 3to the king’s attention, he commanded by letter 4that his wicked scheme which he had devised against the Jews 5was to return on his own head, and that he and his sons were to be hanged on the wooden gallows.
