Esther 5:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 So Esther answered and said, “[a]My petition and [b]my request is: 8 (A)if I have found favor in the eyes of the king, and if it seems good to the king to give heed to [c]my petition and to do [d]my request, may the king and Haman come to (B)the feast which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do according to the word of the king.”
Haman Recounts His Glory
9 Then Haman went out that day glad and merry of heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai (C)in the king’s gate and (D)that he did not stand up or [e]tremble before him, Haman was filled with wrath against Mordecai.
