'Scheme' in the Bible

Then Esther spoke again to the king, fell at his feet, wept and implored him to avert the evil scheme of Haman the Agagite and his plot which he had devised against the Jews.

But when it came to the king’s attention, he commanded by letter that his wicked scheme which he had devised against the Jews, should return on his own head and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

“His vigorous stride is shortened,And his own scheme brings him down.

In whose hands is a wicked scheme,And whose right hand is full of bribes.

“Run away, flee! Dwell in the depths,O inhabitants of Hazor,” declares the Lord;“For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has formed a plan against youAnd devised a scheme against you.

Woe to those who scheme iniquity,Who work out evil on their beds!When morning comes, they do it,For it is in the power of their hands.
