Riveduta Bibbia
si consegni la veste e il cavallo a uno dei principi più nobili del re; si rivesta di quella veste l’uomo che il re vuole onorare, lo si faccia percorrere a cavallo le vie della città, e si gridi davanti a lui: Così si fa all’uomo che il re vuole onorare!"
Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
E que’ vestimenti, e quel cavallo, si converrebbero dare in mano di un personaggio d’infra i principi del re, d’infra i baroni; e colui il quale il re volesse onorare, dovrebbe esser vestito di que’ vestimenti, e farsi cavalcar quel cavallo per le strade della città; e si converrebbe gridar davanti a lui: Così deve farsi a colui, il quale il re vuole onorare.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes,.... The one,

that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour; and the other to be led in state before him:

and bring him on horseback through the street of the city; on another horse, that all might see what honour was done him:

and proclaim before him; as before Joseph, when advanced next to Pharaoh, Genesis 41:43 this was not to be done by an herald, but by a nobleman, to whom the apparel and horse were to be delivered, and was done by Haman, Esther 6:11,

thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour; these were the words said in the proclamation, signifying this was the man the king delighted to honour, and this the manner in which he would have it done.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Esther 6:9. One of the king's most noble princes — Alas, Poor Haman! Never was the fable of the dog and shadow more literally fulfilled. Thou didst gape at the shadow, and didst lose the substance.
