Esther 9:23-25
English Standard Version Anglicised
23 So the Jews accepted what they had started to do, and what Mordecai had written to them. 24 For Haman the Agagite, the son of Hammedatha, (A)the enemy of all the Jews, (B)had plotted against the Jews to destroy them, and (C)had cast Pur (that is, cast lots), to crush and to destroy them. 25 But when it came before the king, he gave orders in writing (D)that his evil plan which he had devised against the Jews (E)should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.[a]
