Esther 4:15

In chapter 4 the king of Persia issues a royal proclamation ordering the execution of Haman, the chief of the Jews' enemies, for plotting to destroy them. Haman, who had been given a special order to kill all Jews, is forced to cut off his own head and is hanged, while his robe is displayed as a warning. The chapter ends with the king's decree being fulfilled and the people rejoicing.
