Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the couch whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he even force the queen before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.

Then the king came back from the garden into the room where they had been drinking; and Haman was stretched out on the seat where Esther was. Then the king said, Is he taking the queen by force before my eyes in my house? And while the words were on the king's lips, they put a cloth over Haman's face.

Και επεστρεψεν ο βασιλευς απο του κηπου του παλατιου εις τον οικον του συμποσιου του οινου· ο δε Αμαν ητο πεπτωκως επι της κλινης εφ' ης ητο η Εσθηρ. Και ειπεν ο βασιλευς, Θελει ετι και την βασιλισσαν να βιαση εμπροσθεν μου εν τω οικω; Ο λογος εξηλθεν εκ του στοματος του βασιλεως και εσκεπασαν το προσωπον του Αμαν.

Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
