7 And the
king arose in his wrath from the wine-drinking and went into the palace
garden, but Haman stayed to beg for his life from Queen Esther, for he saw that
harm was determined against him by the king. 8 And
the king returned from the palace garden to the place where they were
drinking wine, as Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was. And the
king said, “Will he even assault the queen in my presence, in my own house?” As
the word left the mouth of the king, they covered Haman's face. 9 Then Harbona,
one of the eunuchs in attendance on the king, said, “Moreover, the
gallows that Haman has prepared for Mordecai, whose word saved the
king, is standing at Haman's house, fifty cubits high.” And the king said,
“Hang him on that.” 10 So they hanged Haman on the
gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the wrath of the king
abated.
These verses give an
account of how Haman was hung on the very gallows he commanded built to hand
another man.
Whoever sows to please
their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the
Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life'. Galatians 6:8.
What are you sowing?
