Chapter 6
On
that
night
could
not
the
king
sleep,
and
he
commanded
to
bring
the
book
of
records
of
the
chronicles;
and
they
were
read
before
the
king.
2
And
it
was
found
written,
that
Mordecai
had
told
of
Bigthana
and
Teresh,
two
of
the
king’s
chamberlains,
the
keepers
of
the
door,
who
sought
to
lay
hand
on
the
king
Ahasuerus.
3
And
the
king
said,
What
honour
and
dignity
hath
been
done
to
Mordecai
for
this?
Then
said
the
king’s
servants
that
ministered
unto
him,
There
is
nothing
done
for
him.
4
And
the
king
said,
Who
is
in
the
court?
Now
Haman
was
come
into
the
outward
court
of
the
king’s
house,
to
speak
unto
the
king
to
hang
Mordecai
on
the
gallows
that
he
had
prepared
for
him.
5
And
the
king’s
servants
said
unto
him,
Behold,
Haman
standeth
in
the
court.
And
the
king
said,
Let
him
come
in.
6
So
Haman
came
in.
And
the
king
said
unto
him,
What
shall
be
done
unto
the
man
whom
the
king
delighteth
to
honour?
Now
Haman
thought
in
his
heart,
To
whom
would
the
king
delight
to
do
honour
more
than
to
myself?
7
And
Haman
answered
the
king,
For
the
man
whom
the
king
delighteth
to
honour,
8
Let
the
royal
apparel
be
brought
which
the
king
useth
to
wear,
and
the
horse
that
the
king
rideth
upon,
and
the
crown
royal
which
is
set
upon
his
head:
9
And
let
this
apparel
and
horse
be
delivered
to
the
hand
of
one
of
the
king’s
most
noble
princes,
that
they
may
array
the
man
withal
whom
the
king
delighteth
to
honour,
and
bring
him
on
horseback
through
the
street
of
the
city,
and
proclaim
before
him,
Thus
shall
it
be
done
to
the
man
whom
the
king
delighteth
to
honour.
10
Then
the
king
said
to
Haman,
Make
haste,
and
take
the
apparel
and
the
horse,
as
thou
hast
said,
and
do
even
so
to
Mordecai
the
Jew,
that
sitteth
at
the
king’s
gate:
let
nothing
fail
of
all
that
thou
hast
spoken.
11
Then
took
Haman
the
apparel
and
the
horse,
and
arrayed
Mordecai,
and
brought
him
on
horseback
through
the
street
of
the
city,
and
proclaimed
before
him,
Thus
shall
it
be
done
unto
the
man
whom
the
king
delighteth
to
honour.
12
And
Mordecai
came
again
to
the
king’s
gate.
But
Haman
hasted
to
his
house
mourning,
and
having
his
head
covered.
13
And
Haman
told
Zeresh
his
wife
and
all
his
friends
every
thing
that
had
befallen
him.
Then
said
his
wise
men
and
Zeresh
his
wife
unto
him,
If
Mordecai
be
of
the
seed
of
the
Jews,
before
whom
thou
hast
begun
to
fall,
thou
shalt
not
prevail
against
him,
but
shalt
surely
fall
before
him.
14
And
while
they
were
yet
talking
with
him,
came
the
king’s
chamberlains,
and
hasted
to
bring
Haman
unto
the
banquet
that
Esther
had
prepared.
