Esther 6:10-12

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁰ The king told Haman, ‘Hurry, and do just as you proposed. Take a garment and a horse for Mordecai the Jew,^(A) who is sitting at the King’s Gate. Do not leave out anything you have suggested.’

¹¹ So Haman took the garment and the horse. He clothed Mordecai and paraded him through the city square, calling out before him, ‘This is what is done for the man the king wants to honour.’

¹² Then Mordecai returned to the King’s Gate,^(B) but Haman hurried off for home, mournful and with his head covered.^(C)
