Esther 7:6-8
Lexham English Bible
6 And Esther said, “The adversary and enemy is this evil Haman!” And Haman was terrified before the king and queen.
Haman is Hanged
7 The king rose in his anger from the banquet[a] and went to the palace garden, and Haman stood to beg for his life from Queen Esther, for he realized that the king was determined to make an end to his life.[b] 8 And the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall,[c] where Haman was lying prostrate on the couch that Esther was on, and the king said, “Will he also molest the queen with me in the house?” As the words[d] went from the king’s mouth they covered Haman’s face.
