Esther 7:5-7

New International Version

⁵ King Xerxes asked Queen Esther, “Who is he? Where is he—the man who has dared to do such a thing?”

⁶ Esther said, “An adversary and enemy! This vile Haman!”

Then Haman was terrified before the king and queen. ⁷ The king got up in a rage,^(A) left his wine and went out into the palace garden.^(B) But Haman, realizing that the king had already decided his fate,^(C) stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life.
