Letter "H" » Haman
«And the king said unto Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? now what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: or what is thy request further? and it shall be done.»
«And the king took his ring from his hand, and gave it unto Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews' enemy.»
«And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee.»
«And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.»
«And the king's servants said unto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.»
«And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.»
«And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.»

«And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha, / And Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha, / And Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha, / The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, slew they; but on the spoil laid they not their hand.»
«And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them; / Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them; / But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.»
