Esther 5:10-14

10Nevertheless HamanH2001 restrainedH662 himself: and when he cameH935 homeH1004, he sentH7971 and calledH935 for his friendsH157, and ZereshH2238 his wifeH802.1 11And HamanH2001 toldH5608 them of the gloryH3519 of his richesH6239, and the multitudeH7230 of his childrenH1121, and all the things in which the kingH4428 had promotedH1431 him, and how he had advancedH5375 him above the princesH8269 and servantsH5650 of the kingH4428. 12HamanH2001 saidH559 moreover, Yea, EstherH635 the queenH4436 let no man come inH935 with the kingH4428 to the banquetH4960 that she had preparedH6213 but myself; and to morrowH4279 I am invitedH7121 to her also with the kingH4428. 13Yet all this availethH7737 me nothing, so long asH6256 I seeH7200 MordecaiH4782 the JewH3064 sittingH3427 at the king’sH4428 gateH8179. 14Then saidH559 ZereshH2238 his wifeH802 and all his friendsH157 to him, Let a gallowsH6086 be madeH6213 fiftyH2572 cubitsH520 highH1364, and to morrowH1242 speakH559 thou to the kingH4428 that MordecaiH4782 may be hangedH8518 on it: then goH935 thou in merrilyH8056 with the kingH4428 to the banquetH4960. And the thingH1697 pleasedH3190H6440 HamanH2001; and he causedH6213 the gallowsH6086 to be madeH6213.2
