Esther 6

6
Mordecai Is Honored
1That same night the king could not sleep. So he gave an order for the daily court record to be brought in and read to him. 2It was found recorded that Mordecai had warned the king about Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s officers who guarded the doorway and who had planned to kill the king.
3The king asked, “What honor and reward have been given to Mordecai for this?”
The king’s personal servants answered, “Nothing has been done for Mordecai.”
4The king said, “Who is in the courtyard?” Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king’s palace. He had come to ask the king about hanging Mordecai on the platform he had prepared.
5The king’s personal servants said, “Haman is standing in the courtyard.”
The king said, “Bring him in.”
6So Haman came in. And the king asked him, “What should be done for a man whom the king wants very much to honor?”
And Haman thought to himself, “Whom would the king want to honor more than me?” 7So he answered the king, “This is what you could do for the man you want very much to honor. 8Have the servants bring a royal robe that the king himself has worn. And also bring a horse with a royal crown on its head, a horse that the king himself has ridden. 9Let the robe and the horse be given to one of the king’s most important men. Let the servants put the robe on the man the king wants to honor, and let them lead him on the horse through the city streets. As they are leading him, let them announce: ‘This is what is done for the man whom the king wants to honor!’ ”
10The king commanded Haman, “Go quickly. Take the robe and the horse just as you have said, and do all this for Mordecai the Jew who sits at the king’s gate. Do not leave out anything you have suggested.”
11So Haman took the robe and the horse, and he put the robe on Mordecai. Then he led him on horseback through the city streets, announcing before Mordecai: “This is what is done for the man whom the king wants to honor!”
12Then Mordecai returned to the king’s gate, but Haman hurried home with his head covered, because he was embarrassed and ashamed. 13He told his wife, Zeresh, and all his friends everything that had happened to him.
Haman’s wife and the men who gave him advice said, “You are starting to lose power to Mordecai. Since he is a Jew, you cannot win against him. You will surely be ruined.” 14While they were still talking, the king’s eunuchs came to Haman’s house and made him hurry to the banquet Esther had prepared.
