Esther 5:11-13
New English Translation

11 Haman then recounted to them his fabulous wealth,[a] his many sons,[b] and how the king had magnified him and exalted him over the king’s other officials and servants. 12 Haman said, “Furthermore, Queen Esther invited[c] only me to accompany the king to the banquet that she prepared. And also tomorrow I am invited[d] along with the king. 13 Yet all this fails to satisfy me so long as I have to see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.”
