Esther 7:4-6

4for 1we have been soldH4376, I and my peopleH5971, to be destroyedH8045, 2killedH2026, and eliminatedH6. Now ifH432 we had only been soldH4376 as slavesH8198H5650, menH5650 and womenH8198, I would have keptH2790 silentH2790, becauseH3588 the distressH6862 would not be sufficientH7737 reason to burdenH5143 the kingH4428.”

5Then KingH4428 AhasuerusH325 3askedH559 QueenH4436 EstherH635, “WhoH4310 is he, and whereH335 is he, 4whoH834 would presumeH4390H3820 to doH6213 suchH3651 a thing?”

6And EstherH635 saidH559, “5A foeH6862 and an enemyH340 is thisH2088 wickedH7451 HamanH2001!” Then HamanH2001 became terrifiedH1204 beforeH4480H6440 the kingH4428 and queenH4436.
