Then said0559 the king's4428 servants5288 that ministered8334 unto him, There is nothing1697 done6213 for him. 6:4 And the king4428 said0559, Who {is} in the court2691? Now Haman2001 was come0935 into the outward2435 court2691 of the king's4428 house1004, to speak0559 unto the king4428 to hang8518 Mordecai4782 on the gallows6086 that he had prepared3559 for him. 6:5 And the king's4428 servants5288 said0559 unto him, Behold, Haman2001 standeth5975 in the court2691. And the king4428 said0559, Let him come in0935. 6:6 So Haman2001 came in0935. And the king4428 said0559 unto him, What shall be done6213 unto the man0376 whom the king4428 delighteth2654 to honour3366? Now Haman2001 thought0559 in his heart3820, To whom would the king4428 delight2654 to do6213 honour3366 more3148 than to myself? 6:7 And Haman2001 answered0559 the king4428, For the man0376 whom the king4428 delighteth2654 to honour3366, 6:8 Let the royal4438 apparel3830 be brought0935 which the king4428 {useth} to wear3847, and the horse5483 that the king4428 rideth7392 upon, and the crown3804 royal4438 which is set5414 upon his head7218: 6:9 And let this apparel3830 and horse5483 be delivered5414 to the hand3027 of one0376 of the king's4428 most noble6579 princes8269, that they may array3847 the man0376 {withal} whom the king4428 delighteth2654 to honour3366, and bring7392 him on horseback5483 through the street7339 of the city5892, and proclaim7121 before6440 him, Thus shall it be done6213 to the man0376 whom the king4428 delighteth2654 to honour3366. 6:10 Then the king4428 said0559 to Haman2001, Make haste4116, {and} take3947 the apparel3830 and the horse5483, as thou hast said1696, and do6213 even so to Mordecai4782 the Jew3064, that sitteth3427 at the king's4428 gate8179: let nothing1697 fail5307 of all that thou hast spoken1696. 6:11 Then took3947 Haman2001 the apparel3830 and the horse5483, and arrayed3847 Mordecai4782, and brought him on horseback7392 through the street7339 of the city5892, and proclaimed7121 before6440 him, Thus shall it be done6213 unto the man0376 whom the king4428 delighteth2654 to honour3366. 6:12 And Mordecai4782 came again7725 to the king's4428 gate8179. But Haman2001 hasted1765 to his house1004 mourning0057, and having his head7218 covered2645. 6:13 And Haman2001 told5608 Zeresh2238 his wife0802 and all his friends0157 every {thing} that had befallen7136 him. Then said0559 his wise men2450 and Zeresh2238 his wife0802 unto him, If Mordecai4782 {be} of the seed2233 of the Jews3064, before6440 whom thou hast begun2490 to fall5307, thou shalt not prevail3201 against him, but shalt surely5307 fall5307 before6440 him. 6:14 And while they {were} yet talking1696 with him, came5060 the king's4428 chamberlains5631, and hasted0926 to bring0935 Haman2001 unto the banquet4960 that Esther0635 had prepared6213.
