Greek Esther 6:12-14

Common English Bible

¹² Then Mordecai returned to the king’s gate, while Haman hurried home, feeling great shame, his head covered. ¹³ Haman told his wife Zeresh and his friends about everything that had happened to him.

Both his friends^[a] and his wife said to him, “You’ve begun to lose face to Mordecai. If Mordecai belongs to the Judean people, and you’ve been humiliated before him, you will indeed fall. You will never be able to hold your own against him, because the living God is with him.”

Haman’s demise

¹⁴ They were still discussing this with him when several royal eunuchs arrived. They quickly hurried Haman off to the feast that Esther had prepared.
