*
And Haman went out that day joyful and good of heart .
But when Haman saw Mordecai in the gate of the king ,
that he did not stand up or move for him ,
he was full of fury against Mordecai .
*
But Haman held himself in .
and came to his house ,
and sent for and brought in his friends ,
and his wife Zeresh .
*
And Haman told them of the glory of his riches ,
and his many sons ,
and all to which the king had promoted him ,
and how he lifted him up above the princes and the servants of the king .
*
And Haman said ,
Also ,
the queen did not let anyone come in with the king to the banquet that she had prepared ,
except me And also tomorrow I am called to it with the king .
*
Yet all this is no gain to me as long as I am seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king '
s gate .
*
And his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him ,
Make a wooden gallows fifty cubits high ,
and tomorrow speak to the king and let them hang Mordecai on it ;
and go rejoicing in with the king to the banquet .
And the thing was good in Haman '
s eyes .
And he caused the wooden gallows to be made .
