" But, concealing his anger and returning into his house, he gathered to him his friends and Zeresh, his wife. "
— Esther 5:10, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Nevertheless Haman refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.”
“Nevertheless Haman refrained himself, and went home; and he sent and fetched his friends and Zeresh his wife. ”
“Nevertheless Haman restrained himself, and went home. There, he sent and called for his friends and Zeresh his wife.”
“But Haman restrained himself and went on to his home.He then sent for his friends to join him, along with his wife Zeresh.”
“But dissembling his anger, and returning into his house, he called together to him his friends, and Zares his wife:”
“But controlling himself, he went to his house; and he sent for his friends and Zeresh, his wife.”
“Nevertheless Haman refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.”
Esther answered him, “My petition and prayer is this:
If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to give me what I ask, and to fulfill my petition, let the king and Haman come to the feast which I have prepared for them, and tomorrow I will open my mind to the king.”
And so Haman went out that day joyful and cheerful. And when he saw that Mordecai was sitting in front of the gate of the palace, and that he alone did not get up for him, but did not so much as move from the place where he sat, he was very indignant.
But, concealing his anger and returning into his house, he gathered to him his friends and Zeresh, his wife.
And he explained to them the greatness of his riches, and the influence of his sons, and how, with such glory, the king had elevated him above all his rulers and servants.
And after this, he said, “Also, queen Esther has called no one else to the feast with the king, except me. And I will be dining with the king again tomorrow.
And though I have all these things, I consider that I have nothing as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting in front of the king’s gate.”
