Poisson likelihood with an exponential prior

Given λ\lambda, X1,X2,X3,X4X_1,X_2,X_3,X_4 are independent Poisson random variables with mean λ\lambda. Suppose the prior distribution of λ\lambda is exponential with mean one. Then the posterior density of λ\lambda given Xi=kiX_i=k_i, i=1,2,3,4i=1,2,3,4 is:
