Esther 6:12 in Context — Esther 6

10 Então o rei disse a Hamã: Apressa-te, toma o vestido e o cavalo, como disseste, e faze assim para com o judeu Mardoqueu, que se senta à porta do rei; não omitas coisa alguma de tudo quanto disseste.

11 E Hamã tomou o vestido e o cavalo, e vestiu a Mardoqueu; e o levou a cavalo pelas ruas da cidade, e proclamou diante dele: Assim se fará ao homem a quem o rei deseja honrar!

12 Depois disto Mardoqueu voltou à porta do rei. Porém Hamã se retirou correndo para sua casa, aborrecido, e com sua cabeça coberta.

13 E Hamã contou a sua mulher Zeres e a todos seus amigos tudo o que tinha lhe acontecido; então seus sábios e sua mulher Zeres lhe disseram: Se Mardoqueu, diante de quem começaste a cair, é da semente dos judeus, tu não prevalecerás contra ele; ao contrário, certamente cairás diante dele.

14 Enquanto eles ainda estavam falando com ele, os eunucos do rei chegaram, apressados, para levarem Hamã ao banquete que Ester havia preparado.
