Esther 6 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 That same night, the king could not sleep. So he told a servant to bring the history book and read it to him. (The Book of History of the Kings lists everything that happens during a king's rule.)
2 The servant read the book to the king. He read about the evil plan to kill King Xerxes. That was when Mordecai had learned about Bigthana and Teresh. These two men were the king's officers who guarded the doorway. They had planned to kill the king, but Mordecai learned about the plan and told someone about it.
3 Then the king asked, "What honor and good things have been given to Mordecai for this?" The servants answered the king, "Nothing has been done for Mordecai."
4 Haman had just entered the outer area of the king's palace. He had come to ask the king to hang Mordecai on the hanging post Haman had commanded to be built. The king said, "Who just came into the courtyard?"
5 The king's servants said, "Haman is standing in the courtyard." So the king said, "Bring him in."
6 When Haman came in, the king asked him a question. He said, "Haman, what should be done for a man the king wants to honor?" Haman thought to himself, "Who is there that the king would want to honor more than me? I'm sure that the king is talking about honoring me."
7 So Haman answered the king, "Do this for the man the king loves to honor:
8 Have the servants bring a special robe the king himself has worn and a horse the king himself has ridden. Have the servants put the king's special mark on the horse's head.
9 Then put one of the king's most important leaders in charge of the robe and the horse, and let the leader put the robe on the man the king wants to honor. Then let him lead him on the horse through the city streets. As he leads him, let him announce, 'This is done for the man the king wants to honor!'"
10 "Go quickly," the king commanded Haman. "Get the robe and the horse and do just as you have suggested for Mordecai the Jew. He is sitting near the king's gate. Do everything that you suggested."
11 So Haman got the robe and the horse. Then he put the robe on Mordecai and led him on horseback through the city streets. Haman announced ahead of Mordecai, "This is done for the man the king wants to honor!"
12 After that Mordecai went back to the king's gate, but Haman hurried home with his head covered because he was embarrassed and ashamed.
13 Then Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened to him. His wife and the men who gave him advice said, "If Mordecai is a Jew, you cannot win. You have already started to fall. Surely you will be ruined!"
14 While they were still talking to Haman, the king's eunuchs came to Haman's house. They made Haman hurry to the party that Esther had prepared.
1 On that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS night H3915 could not H5074 the king H4428 D-NMS sleep H8142 , and he commanded H559 W-VQY3MS to bring H935 L-VHFC the book H5612 CMS of records H2146 of the chronicles H1697 CMP ; and they were H1961 W-VQY3MP read H7121 before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 .
2 And it was found H4672 written H3789 , that H834 RPRO Mordecai H4782 had told H5046 VHQ3MS of H5921 PREP Bigthana H904 and Teresh H8657 , two H8147 ONUM of the king H4428 D-NMS \'s chamberlains H5631 , the keepers H8104 of the door H5592 , who H834 RPRO sought H1245 to lay H7971 hand H3027 NFS on the king H4428 Ahasuerus H325 .
3 And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IGAT honor H3366 NMS and dignity H1420 hath been done H6213 to Mordecai H4782 for H5921 PREP this H2088 DPRO ? Then said H559 W-VQY3MS the king H4428 D-NMS \'s servants H5288 that ministered H8334 unto him , There is nothing H3808 NADV done H6213 for H5973 PREP-3MS him .
4 And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Who H4310 IPRO is in the court H2691 ? Now Haman H2001 was come H935 VQPMS into the outward H2435 court H2691 of the king H4428 D-NMS \'s house H1004 CMS , to speak H559 W-VQY3MS unto the king H4428 to hang H8518 Mordecai H4782 on H5921 PREP the gallows H6086 AMS that H834 RPRO he had prepared H3559 for him .
5 And the king H4428 D-NMS \'s servants H5288 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Behold H2009 IJEC , Haman H2001 standeth H5975 in the court H2691 . And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Let him come in H935 VQY3MS .
6 So Haman H2001 came in H935 W-VQY3MS . And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , What H4100 IPRO shall be done H6213 L-VQFC unto the man H376 whom H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS delighteth H2654 to honor H3366 ? Now Haman H2001 thought H559 W-VQY3MS in his heart H3820 , To whom H4310 L-IPRO would the king H4428 D-NMS delight H2654 VQY3MS to do H6213 L-VQFC honor H3366 NMS more than H3148 to H4480 PREP-1MS myself ?
7 And Haman H2001 answered H559 W-VQY3MS the king H4428 D-NMS , For the man H376 NMS whom H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS delighteth H2654 to honor H3366 ,
8 Let the royal H4438 CFP apparel H3830 NMS be brought H935 which H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS useth to wear H3847 , and the horse H5483 that H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS rideth H7392 upon H5921 PREP-3MS , and the crown H3804 royal H4438 CFP which H834 RPRO is set H5414 upon his head H7218 :
9 And let this apparel H3830 and horse H5483 be delivered H5414 to H5921 PREP the hand H3027 CFS of one H376 NMS of the king H4428 D-NMS \'s most noble H6579 princes H8269 , that they may array H3847 the man H376 D-NMS withal whom H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS delighteth H2654 to honor H3366 , and bring H7392 him on H5921 PREP horseback H5483 through the street H7339 of the city H5892 D-GFS , and proclaim H7121 W-VQQ3MP before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him , Thus H3602 ADV shall it be done H6213 to the man H376 NMS whom H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS delighteth H2654 to honor H3366 .
10 Then the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS to Haman H2001 , Make haste H4116 , and take H3947 VQI2MS the apparel H3830 and the horse H5483 , as H834 RPRO thou hast said H1696 , and do H6213 even so H3651 ADV to Mordecai H4782 the Jew H3064 , that sitteth H3427 at the king H4428 D-NMS \'s gate H8179 : let nothing H408 NPAR fail H5307 of all H3605 M-CMS that H834 RPRO thou hast spoken H1696 .
11 Then took H3947 W-VQY3MS Haman H2001 the apparel H3830 and the horse H5483 , and arrayed H3847 Mordecai H4782 , and brought him on horseback H7392 through the street H7339 of the city H5892 D-GFS , and proclaimed H7121 W-VQY3MS before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him , Thus H3602 ADV shall it be done H6213 unto the man H376 LD-NMS whom H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS delighteth H2654 to honor H3366 .
12 And Mordecai H4782 came again H7725 to H413 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS \'s gate H8179 NMS . But Haman H2001 hasted H1765 to H413 PREP his house H1004 NMS-3MS mourning H57 , and having his head H7218 covered H2645 .
13 And Haman H2001 told H5608 Zeresh H2238 his wife H802 CFS-3MS and all H3605 NMS his friends H157 every H3605 NMS thing that H834 RPRO had befallen H7136 him . Then said H559 W-VQY3MP his wise men H2450 and Zeresh H2238 his wife H802 CFS-3MS unto him , If H518 PART Mordecai H4782 be of the seed H2233 of the Jews H3064 , before H6440 L-CMP-3MS whom H834 RPRO thou hast begun H2490 to fall H5307 , thou shalt not H3808 NADV prevail H3201 against him , but H3588 CONJ shalt surely fall H5307 before H6440 him .
14 And while they were yet H5750 talking H1696 with H5973 PREP-3MS him , came H5060 the king H4428 D-NMS \'s chamberlains H5631 , and hasted H926 to bring H935 L-VHFC Haman H2001 unto H413 PREP the banquet H4960 D-NMS that H834 RPRO Esther H635 had prepared H6213 VQQ3MS .
