Esther 7:9-10
International Standard Version
9 Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs attending the king, observed, “Look there! A pole is standing 50 cubits[a] high at Haman’s house that he prepared for Mordecai, whose report benefitted[b] the king!”
The king said, “Hang[c] him on it.” 10 So they hanged[d] Haman on the pole he had set up for Mordecai, and then the king’s anger subsided.
