Esther 3:1

And he seized Agag the king of the Amalekites alive and devoted to destruction all the people with the edge of the sword.

Then the king removed his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the adversary of the Jews.

Then Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches and the number of his sons and every instance where the king had magnified him and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.

folly is set in many exalted places while rich men sit in humble places.
