Ester 7:6 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 7:6

And Esther said, the adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman,
&c.] Who was not only an enemy to her and her people, but an adversary to the king, by advising and persuading him to that which was to the loss of his revenues, as well as of his reputation; also, she pointed at him, and gave him his just character; her charge of wickedness upon him, as it was true, it was honourably made to his face before the king, of which, if he could, he had the opportunity of exculpating himself:

then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen;
gave visible signs of his confusion, consternation, and trouble of mind, by the fall of his countenance, his pale looks, his trembling limbs, and quivering lips, being struck dumb, and not able to speak one word for himself.

4 Porque vendidos estamos yo y mi pueblo, para ser destruidos, para ser muertos y echados a perder. Si para siervos y siervas fu茅ramos vendidos, me callar铆a, aunque el enemigo no compensara el da帽o al rey.
5 Y respondi贸 el rey Asuero, y dijo a la reina Ester: 驴Qui茅n es, y d贸nde est谩 , el que ha ensoberbecido su coraz贸n para obrar as铆?
6 Entonces Ester dijo: El var贸n enemigo y adversario es este malvado Am谩n. Entonces se turb贸 Am谩n delante del rey y de la reina.
7 Se levant贸 luego el rey del banquete del vino en su furor, y se fue al huerto del palacio; y se qued贸 Am谩n para procurar de la reina Ester por su vida; porque vio que se concluy贸 para 茅l el mal de parte del rey.
8 Y volvi贸 el rey del huerto del palacio al aposento del banquete del vino, y Am谩n hab铆a ca铆do sobre el lecho en que estaba Ester. Entonces dijo el rey: 驴Tambi茅n para forzar la reina, estando conmigo en casa? Cuando esta palabra sali贸 de la boca del rey, el rostro de Am谩n fue cubierto.
