And Memucan
<04462>

answered
<0559> (8799)

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>

and the princes
<08269>_,

Vashti
<02060>

the queen
<04436>

hath not done wrong
<05753> (8804)

to the king
<04428>

only, but also to all the princes
<08269>_,

and to all the people
<05971>

that [are] in all the provinces
<04082>

of the king
<04428>

<0325>_.

So Esther's
<0635>

maids
<05291>

and her chamberlains
<05631>

came
<0935> (8799)

and told
<05046> (8686)

[it] her. Then was the queen
<04436>

exceedingly
<03966>

grieved
<02342> (8698)_;

and she sent
<07971> (8799)

raiment
<0899>

to clothe
<03847> (8687)

Mordecai
<04782>_,

and to take away
<05493> (8687)

his sackcloth
<08242>

from him: but he received
<06901> (8765)

[it] not. {chamberlains: Heb. eunuchs}

And it was so, when the king
<04428>

saw
<07200> (8800)

Esther
<0635>

the queen
<04436>

standing
<05975> (8802)

in the court
<02691>_,

[that] she obtained
<05375> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in his sight
<05869>_:

and the king
<04428>

held out
<03447> (8686)

to Esther
<0635>

the golden
<02091>

sceptre
<08275>

that [was] in his hand
<03027>_.

So Esther
<0635>

drew near
<07126> (8799)_,

and touched
<05060> (8799)

the top
<07218>

of the sceptre
<08275>_.

Haman
<02001>

said
<0559> (8799)

moreover, Yea, Esther
<0635>

the queen
<04436>

did let no man come in
<0935> (8689)

with the king
<04428>

unto the banquet
<04960>

that she had prepared
<06213> (8804)

but myself; and to morrow
<04279>

am I invited
<07121> (8803)

unto her also with the king
<04428>_.

Esther 7:2-3

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

again unto Esther
<0635>

on the second
<08145>

day
<03117>

at the banquet
<04960>

of wine
<03196>_,

What [is] thy petition
<07596>_,

queen
<04436>

Esther
<0635>_?

and it shall be granted
<05414> (8735)

thee: and what [is] thy request
<01246>_?

and it shall be performed
<06213> (8735)_,

[even] to the half
<02677>

of the kingdom
<04438>_.

7:3

Then Esther
<0635>

the queen
<04436>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

If I have found
<04672> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in thy sight
<05869>_,

O king
<04428>_,

and if it please
<02895> (8804)

the king
<04428>_,

let my life
<05315>

be given
<05414> (8735)

me at my petition
<07596>_,

and my people
<05971>

at my request
<01246>_:

Esther 7:7-8

7:7

And the king
<04428>

arising
<06965> (8804)

from the banquet
<04960>

of wine
<03196>

in his wrath
<02534>

[went] into the palace
<01055>

garden
<01594>_:

and Haman
<02001>

stood up
<05975> (8804)

to make request
<01245> (8763)

for his life
<05315>

to Esther
<0635>

the queen
<04436>_;

for he saw
<07200> (8804)

that there was evil
<07451>

determined
<03615> (8804)

against him by the king
<04428>_.

7:8

Then the king
<04428>

returned
<07725> (8804)

out of the palace
<01055>

garden
<01594>

into the place
<01004>

of the banquet
<04960>

of wine
<03196>_;

and Haman
<02001>

was fallen
<05307> (8802)

upon the bed
<04296>

whereon Esther
<0635>

[was]. Then said
<0559> (8799)

the king
<04428>_,

Will he force
<03533> (8800)

the queen
<04436>

also before me in the house
<01004>_?

As the word
<01697>

went out
<03318> (8804)

of the king's
<04428>

mouth
<06310>_,

they covered
<02645> (8804)

Haman's
<02001>

face
<06440>_.

{before me: Heb. with me}

<01004>

of Haman
<02001>

the Jews
<03064>_'

enemy
<06887> (8802)

unto Esther
<0635>

the queen
<04436>_.

And Mordecai
<04782>

came
<0935> (8804)

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_;

for Esther
<0635>

had told
<05046> (8689)

what he [was] unto her.

Esther 8:7

Then the king
<04428>

<0559> (8799)

unto Esther
<0635>

the queen
<04436>

and to Mordecai
<04782>

the Jew
<03064>_,

Behold, I have given
<05414> (8804)

Esther
<0635>

the house
<01004>

of Haman
<02001>_,

and him they have hanged
<08518> (8804)

upon the gallows
<06086>_,

because he laid
<07971> (8804)

his hand
<03027>

upon the Jews
<03064>_.

9:12

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

<0635>

the queen

The Jews
<03064>

have slain
<02026> (8804)

and destroyed
<06> (8763)

five
<02568>

hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>

in Shushan
<07800>

the palace
<01002>_,

and the ten
<06235>

sons
<01121>

of Haman
<02001>_;

what have they done
<06213> (8804)

in the rest
<07605>

of the king's
<04428>

provinces
<04082>_?

now what [is] thy petition
<07596>_?

and it shall be granted
<05414> (8735)

thee: or what [is] thy request
<01246>

further
<05750>_?

and it shall be done
<06213> (8735)_.

To confirm
<06965> (8763)

<03117>

<06332>

in their times

[appointed], according as Mordecai
