at the king's
<04428>

commandment
<01697>

by
<03027>

[his] chamberlains
<05631>_:

therefore was the king
<04428>

very
<03966>

wroth
<07107> (8799)_,

and his anger
<02534>

burned

What shall we do
<06213> (8800)

unto the queen
<04436>

Vashti
<02060>

according to law

because she hath not performed
<06213> (8804)

the commandment
<03982>

of the king
<04428>

Ahasuerus
<0325>

by

<04074>

say
<0559> (8799)

this day
<03117>

unto all the king's
<04428>

princes
<08269>_,

which have heard
<08085> (8804)

of the deed
<01697>

of the queen
<04436>_.

Thus [shall there arise] too much
<01767>

(for it is great
<07227>,)

all the wives
<0802>

shall give
<05414> (8799)

to their husbands
<01167>

honour
<03366>_,

the king
<04428>

<04427> (8799)

And the thing
<01697>

pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>

the king

Esther
<0635>

had not shewed
<05046> (8689)

her people
<05971>

nor her kindred
<04138>_:

for Mordecai

<05046> (8686)

[it].

was given
<05414> (8735)

her to go
<0935> (8800)

with her out of the house
<01004>

of the women
<0802>

unto the king's

<08179>_,

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Mordecai
<04782>_,

Why transgressest
<05674> (8802)

thou the king's
<04428>

commandment
<04687>_?

Esther
<0635>

for Hatach
<02047>_,

[one] of the king's
<04428>

chamberlains
<05631>_,

whom he had appointed
<05975> (8689)

to attend
<06440>

upon her, and gave him a commandment
<06680> (8762)

to Mordecai
<04782>_,

to know
<03045> (8800)

what it [was], and why it [was]. {appointed...: Heb. set before her}

<0635>

answered

unto the king
<04428>_,

let the king
<04428>

and Haman
<02001>

come
<0935> (8799)

this day
<03117>

unto the banquet
<04960>

that I have prepared
<06213> (8804)

for him.

Then the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Cause Haman
<02001>

to make haste
<04116> (8761)_,

that he may do
<06213> (8800)

as Esther
<0635>

hath said
<01697>_.

So the king
<04428>

and Haman
<02001>

came
<0935> (8799)

to the banquet
<04960>

that Esther
<0635>

<06213> (8804)_.

Esther 5:13

5:13

Yet all this availeth
<07737> (8802)

me nothing, so long as
<06256>

I see

Mordecai
<04782>

the Jew
<03064>

sitting
<03427> (8802)

<05631>_,

and hasted

unto the banquet

<0635>

the queen
<04436>_,

Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume
<04390> (8804)

in his heart
<03820>

to do
<06213> (8800)

so? {that...: Heb. whose heart hath filled him}

from Haman
<02001>_,

it unto Mordecai
<04782>_.

Mordecai
<04782>

over the house
<01004>

of Haman
<02001>_.

<07200> (8804)

the evil
<07451>

that shall come
<04672> (8799)

unto my people
<05971>_?

or how
<0349>

can I endure
<03201> (8799)

to see
<07200> (8804)

the destruction
<013>

of my kindred
<04138>_?

{endure...: Heb. be able that I may see}

and officers
<06213> (8802) <04399>

of the king
<04428>_,

helped
<05375> (8764)

the Jews
<03064>_;

because the fear

fell
<05307> (8804)

[both] nigh
<07138>

and far
