7:1 So the king 4428 and Haman 2001 came 935 8799 to banquet 8354 8800 with Esther 635 the queen 4436.(to banquet: Heb. to drink)

7:2 And the king 4428 said 559 8799 again unto Esther 635 on the second 8145 day 3117 at the banquet 4960 of wine 3196, What [is] thy petition 7596, queen 4436 Esther 635? and it shall be granted 5414 8735 thee: and what [is] thy request 1246? and it shall be performed 6213 8735, [even] to the half 2677 of the kingdom 4438.

7:3 Then Esther 635 the queen 4436 answered 6030 8799 and said 559 8799, If I have found 4672 8804 favour 2580 in thy sight 5869, O king 4428, and if it please 2895 8804 the king 4428, let my life 5315 be given 5414 8735 me at my petition 7596, and my people 5971 at my request 1246:

7:4 For we are sold 4376 8738, I and my people 5971, to be destroyed 8045 8687, to be slain 2026 8800, and to perish 6 8763. But if 432 we had been sold 4376 8738 for bondmen 5650 and bondwomen 8198, I had held my tongue 2790 8689, although the enemy 6862 could not countervail 7737 8802 the king's 4428 damage 5143.(to be destroyed…: Heb. that they should destroy, and kill, and cause to perish)

7:5 Then the king 4428 Ahasuerus 325 answered 559 8799 and said 559 8799 unto Esther 635 the queen 4436, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume 4390 8804 in his heart 3820 to do 6213 8800 so?(that…: Heb. whose heart hath filled him)

7:6 And Esther 635 said 559 8799, The adversary 376 6862 and enemy 341 8802 [is] this wicked 7451 Haman 2001. Then Haman 2001 was afraid 1204 8738 before 6440 the king 4428 and the queen 4436.(The adversary: Heb. The man adversary)(before: or, at the presence of)

7:7 And the king 4428 arising 6965 8804 from the banquet 4960 of wine 3196 in his wrath 2534 [went] into the palace 1055 garden 1594: and Haman 2001 stood up 5975 8804 to make request 1245 8763 for his life 5315 to Esther 635 the queen 4436; for he saw 7200 8804 that there was evil 7451 determined 3615 8804 against him by the king 4428.

7:8 Then the king 4428 returned 7725 8804 out of the palace 1055 garden 1594 into the place 1004 of the banquet 4960 of wine 3196; and Haman 2001 was fallen 5307 8802 upon the bed 4296 whereon Esther 635 [was]. Then said 559 8799 the king 4428, Will he force 3533 8800 the queen 4436 also before me in the house 1004? As the word 1697 went out 3318 8804 of the king's 4428 mouth 6310, they covered 2645 8804 Haman's 2001 face 6440.(before me: Heb. with me)

7:9 And Harbonah 2726, one 259 of the chamberlains 5631, said 559 8799 before 6440 the king 4428, Behold also, the gallows 6086 fifty 2572 cubits 520 high 1364, which Haman 2001 had made 6213 8804 for Mordecai 4782, who had spoken 1696 8765 good 2896 for the king 4428, standeth 5975 8802 in the house 1004 of Haman 2001. Then the king 4428 said 559 8799, Hang 8518 8798 him thereon.(gallows: Heb. tree)

7:10 So they hanged 8518 8799 Haman 2001 on the gallows 6086 that he had prepared 3559 8689 for Mordecai 4782. Then was the king's 4428 wrath 2534 pacified 7918 8804.
