Esther 7:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶ Esther said, “A man who is against us! Our enemy is this wicked Haman!”

Then Haman was filled with terror before the king and queen. ⁷ The king was very angry. He got up, left his wine and went out into the palace garden. But Haman stayed inside to beg Queen Esther to save his life. He could see that the king had already decided to kill him.

⁸ The king came back from the palace garden to the banquet hall. And he saw Haman falling on the couch where Esther was lying. The king said, “Will he even attack the queen while I am in the house?”

As soon as the king said that, servants came in and covered Haman’s face.
