Esther 2:8

2:8

So it came to pass, when the king's
<04428>

commandment
<01697>

and his decree
<01881>

was heard
<08085> (8736)_,

and when many
<07227>

maidens
<05291>

were gathered together
<06908> (8736)

unto Shushan
<07800>

the palace
<01002>_,

to the custody
<03027>

of Hegai
<01896>_,

that Esther
<0635>

was brought
<03947> (8735)

also unto the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

to the custody
<03027>

of Hegai
<01896>_,

keeper
<08104> (8802)

of the women
<0802>_.

Esther 2:12

2:12

Now when every maid's
<05291>

turn
<08447>

was come
<05060> (8687)

to go in
<0935> (8800)

to king
<04428>

Ahasuerus
<0325>_,

after
<07093>

that she had been twelve
<08147> <06240>

months
<02320>_,

according to the manner
<01881>

of the women
<0802>_,

(for so were the days
<03117>

of their purifications
<04795>

accomplished
<04390> (8799)_,

[to wit], six
<08337>

months
<02320>

with oil
<08081>

of myrrh
<04753>_,

and six
<08337>

months
<02320>

with sweet odours
<01314>_,

and with [other] things for the purifying
<08562>

of the women
<0802>;)

Esther 4:3

4:3

And in every province
<04082>_,

whithersoever
<04725>

the king's
<04428>

commandment
<01697>

and his decree
<01881>

came
<05060> (8688)_,

[there was] great
<01419>

mourning
<060>

among the Jews
<03064>_,

and fasting
<06685>_,

and weeping
<01065>_,

and wailing
<04553>_;

and many
<07227>

lay
<03331> (8714)

in sackcloth
<08242>

and ashes
<0665>_.

{many...: Heb. sackcloth and ashes were laid under many}

Esther 4:8

4:8

Also he gave
<05414> (8804)

him the copy
<06572>

of the writing
<03791>

of the decree
<01881>

that was given
<05414> (8738)

at Shushan
<07800>

to destroy
<08045> (8687)

them, to shew
<07200> (8687)

[it] unto Esther
<0635>_,

and to declare
<05046> (8687)

[it] unto her, and to charge
<06680> (8763)

her that she should go in
<0935> (8800)

unto the king
<04428>_,

to make supplication
<02603> (8692)

unto him, and to make request
<01245> (8763)

before
<06440>

him for her people
<05971>_.

Esther 8:17--9:1

8:17

And in every province
<04082>_,

and in every city
<05892>_,

whithersoever
<04725>

the king's
<04428>

commandment
<01697>

and his decree
<01881>

came
<05060> (8688)_,

the Jews
<03064>

had joy
<08057>

and gladness
<08342>_,

a feast
<04960>

and a good
<02896>

day
<03117>_.

And many
<07227>

of the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>

became Jews
<03054> (8693)_;

for the fear
<06343>

of the Jews
<03064>

fell
<05307> (8804)

upon them.

9:1

Now in the twelfth
<08147> <06240>

month
<02320>_,

that [is], the month
<02320>

Adar
<0143>_,

on the thirteenth
<07969> <06240>

day
<03117>

of the same, when the king's
<04428>

commandment
<01697>

and his decree
<01881>

drew near
<05060> (8689)

to be put in execution
<06213> (8736)_,

in the day
<03117>

that the enemies
<0341> (8802)

of the Jews
<03064>

hoped
<07663> (8765)

to have power
<07980> (8800)

over them, (though it was turned
<02015> (8736)

to the contrary, that the Jews
<03064>

had rule
<07980> (8799)

over them that hated
<08130> (8802)

them;)

Esther 9:13

9:13

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Esther
<0635>_,

If it please
<02896>

the king
<04428>_,

let it be granted
<05414> (8735)

to the Jews
<03064>

which [are] in Shushan
<07800>

to do
<06213> (8800)

to morrow
<04279>

also according unto this day's
<03117>

decree
<01881>_,

and let Haman's
<02001>

ten
<06235>

sons
<01121>

be hanged
<08518> (8799)

upon the gallows
<06086>_.

{let Haman's...: Heb. let men hang, etc}

Esther 4:16

4:16

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

gather together
<03664> (8798)

all the Jews
<03064>

that are present
<04672> (8737)

in Shushan
<07800>_,

and fast
<06684> (8798)

ye for me, and neither eat
<0398> (8799)

nor drink
<08354> (8799)

three
<07969>

days
<03117>_,

night
<03915>

or day
<03117>_:

I also and my maidens
<05291>

will fast
<06684> (8799)

likewise; and so
<03651>

will I go
<0935> (8799)

in unto the king
<04428>_,

which [is] not according to the law
<01881>_:

and if I perish
<06> (8804)_,

I perish
<06> (8804)_.

{present: Heb. found}

Esther 4:11

4:11

All the king's
<04428>

servants
<05650>_,

and the people
<05971>

of the king's
<04428>

provinces
<04082>_,

do know
<03045> (8802)_,

that whosoever, whether man
<0376>

or woman
<0802>_,

shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>

into the inner
<06442>

court
<02691>_,

who is not called
<07121> (8735)_,

[there is] one
<0259>

law
<01881>

of his to put [him] to death
<04191> (8687)_,

except
<0905>

such to whom the king
<04428>

shall hold out
<03447> (8686)

the golden
<02091>

sceptre
<08275>_,

that he may live
<02421> (8804)_:

but I have not been called
<07121> (8738)

to come in
<0935> (8800)

unto the king
<04428>

these thirty
<07970>

days
<03117>_.
