Esther 5:8

---

← Esther 5:7	Esther 5:8 (KJV)	Esther 5:9 →
Then answered Esther, and said, My petition and my request [is];	If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hath said.	Then went Haman forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai.
