Therefore Haman was hanged in the gibbet, which he had made ready to Mordecai, and the ire of the king rested.

While the wicked man waxeth proud, the poor man is burnt; they be taken in the wicked counsels, which they thinked.

They made ready a snare to my feet; and they greatly bowed my life. They delved a ditch before my face; and they felled [or fell] down into it.

Ever an evil man seeketh strives; forsooth a cruel angel shall be sent against him.

He that is ready to give mercy shall be blessed; for of his loaves he gave some to a poor man.
