Esther 6:4-6

New King James Version

⁴ So the king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had just entered ^(A)the outer court of the king’s palace ^(B)to suggest that the king hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

⁵ The king’s servants said to him, “Haman is there, standing in the court.”

And the king said, “Let him come in.”

⁶ So Haman came in, and the king asked him, “What shall be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?”

Now Haman thought in his heart, “Whom would the king delight to honor more than ^(C)me?”
