*
And Haman answered the king ,
For the man whom the king delighteth to honour ,
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
And Mordecai came again to the king '
s gate .
But Haman hasted to his house mourning ,
and having his head covered .
*
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 .
*
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 .
