Esther 6:10-12

New English Translation

¹⁰ The king then said to Haman, “Go quickly! Take the clothing and the horse, just as you have described, and do as you just indicated to Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king’s gate. Don’t neglect^[a] a single thing of all that you have said.”

¹¹ So Haman took the clothing and the horse, and he clothed Mordecai. He led him about on the horse throughout the plaza of the city, calling before him, “So shall it be done to the man whom the king wishes to honor!”

¹² Then Mordecai again sat at the king’s gate, while Haman hurried away to his home, mournful and with a veil over his head.
