1 On the third day, Estherput on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the palace across from the king’s quarters. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the royal courtroom, facing the entrance.
2 As soon as the king saw Queen Estherstanding in the court, she found favor in his sight. The king extended the gold scepter in his hand toward Esther, and she approached and touched the tip of the scepter.
3 "What is it, Queen Esther?" the king inquired. "What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be given to you."
4 "If it pleases the king," Estherreplied, "may the king and Hamancome today to the banquet I have prepared for the king."
5 "Hurry," commanded the king, "and bring Haman, so we can do as Estherhas requested."
So the king and Hamanwent to the banquet that Estherhad prepared. 6 And as they drank their wine, the king said to Esther, "What is your petition? It will be given to you. What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be fulfilled."
7 Estherreplied, "This is my petition and my request: 8 If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, may the king and Hamancome tomorrow to the banquet I will prepare for them. Then I will answer the king’s question."
Haman’s Plot against Mordecai
9 That day Hamanwent out full of joy and glad of heart. At the king’s gate, however, he saw Mordecai, who did not rise or tremble in fear at his presence. And Hamanwas filled with rage toward Mordecai.
10 Nevertheless, Hamanrestrained himself and went home. And calling for his friends and his wife Zeresh, 11 Hamanrecounted to them his glorious wealth, his many sons, and all the ways the king had honored and promoted him over the other officials and servants.
12 "What is more," Hamanadded, "Queen Estherinvited no one but me to join the king at the banquet she prepared, and I am invited back tomorrow along with the king. 13 Yet none of this satisfies me as long as I see Mordecaithe Jew sitting at the king’s gate."
14 His wife Zereshand all his friends told him, "Have them build a gallows fifty cubitshigh,5:14 50 cubits is approximately 75 feet or 22.9 meters high.and ask the king in the morning to have Mordecaihanged on it. Then go to the banquet with the king and enjoy yourself."
The advice pleased Haman, and he had the gallows constructed.
