Midras Ester 9:13: Bereshit Rabbati

וַתֹּ֤אמֶר אֶסְתֵּר֙ אִם־עַל־הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ ט֔וֹב יִנָּתֵ֣ן גַּם־מָחָ֗ר לַיְּהוּדִים֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בְּשׁוּשָׁ֔ן לַעֲשׂ֖וֹת כְּדָ֣ת הַיּ֑וֹם וְאֵ֛ת עֲשֶׂ֥רֶת בְּנֵֽי־הָמָ֖ן יִתְל֥וּ עַל־הָעֵֽץ׃

Lalu Ester berkata: “Jika baik menurut pandangan raja, izinkanlah orang-orang Yahudi yang ada di Susan untuk berbuat besok juga sesuai dengan ketetapan hari ini, dan biarlah kesepuluh anak laki-laki Haman digantung pada tiang.”

Bereshit Rabbati

(Genesis 45:22) "Three hundred pieces of silver." This hints that he was destined to have a daughter (who would be taken), [who would ask] from the king that they be executed on the same day. Three hundred men would fall on that day. As it is stated, "Let it be given tomorrow, and [the request of] Haman [shall be granted], and they [the Jews] shall be hanged in Shushan" (Esther 9:13–15). And [it was] for him to give silver, hinting at the slain, corresponding to the silver that Haman offered to destroy the Jews, and it turned around that they prevailed over their enemies.
