Esther 6:8-10

New Catholic Bible

^8 [a]let there be brought in the purple robe that the king wore and the horse that he rode when the royal crown was placed on his head. ⁹ Then let the robe and the horse be entrusted to one of the noblest of the king’s officials. Let them robe the man the king wants to reward and lead him on the horse through the city streets, proclaiming before him, ‘This is what is done for the man the king wants to reward.’ ”

¹⁰ Then the king said to Haman, “Go, right away. Get the robe and the horse and do for Mordecai the Jew—who sits at the king’s gate—what you have suggested. Do not leave out anything you have proposed.”
