Midrasch zu Esther 9:14

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ לְהֵֽעָשׂ֣וֹת כֵּ֔ן וַתִּנָּתֵ֥ן דָּ֖ת בְּשׁוּשָׁ֑ן וְאֵ֛ת עֲשֶׂ֥רֶת בְּנֵֽי־הָמָ֖ן תָּלֽוּ׃

Und der König befahl es, dies zu tun; und ein Dekret wurde in Shushan erlassen; und sie hängten Haman's zehn Söhne.

Pirkei DeRabbi Eliezer

Rabbi Eliezer said: Haman had forty sons; ten of them were the scribes of the books of the king, and thirty were ruling in all the provinces, as it is said, "And the ten sons of Haman, in the rest of the king's provinces" (Esth. 9:12). They were all hanged upon the gallows of their father, as it is said, "And they hanged Haman's ten sons" (Esth. 9:14) upon the gallows. Another Scripture text says, "And they hanged Haman's ten sons" (ibid.).
