Esther 7:8-10
Darby Translation
8 And the king returned out of the palace garden into the house of the banquet of wine, and Haman was fallen upon the couch on which Esther was. And the king said, Will he even force the queen before me in the house? The word went forth out of the king's mouth, and they covered Haman's face.
9 And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold, also, the gallows fifty cubits high, that Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king, stands in the house of Haman. And the king said, Hang him on it!
10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. And the king's wrath was appeased.

8 Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman was falling on the couch(A) where Esther was reclining.(B)
The king exclaimed, “Will he even molest the queen while she is with me in the house?”(C)
As soon as the word left the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.(D) 9 Then Harbona,(E) one of the eunuchs attending the king, said, “A pole reaching to a height of fifty cubits[a](F) stands by Haman’s house. He had it set up for Mordecai, who spoke up to help the king.”
The king said, “Impale him on it!”(G) 10 So they impaled(H) Haman(I) on the pole(J) he had set up for Mordecai.(K) Then the king’s fury subsided.(L)
