<01697>

of the queen
<04436>

shall come abroad

<02060>

the queen

to be given
<05414> (8800)

her, out of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_:

scorn
<0959> (8799)

to lay
<07971> (8800)

hands
<03027>

on Mordecai
<04782>

alone; for they had shewed
<05046> (8689)

him the people
<05971>

of Mordecai
<04782>_:

wherefore Haman
<02001>

sought
<01245> (8762)

to destroy
<08045> (8687)

all the Jews
<03064>

that [were] throughout the whole kingdom

in the court
<02691>_,

[that] she obtained
<05375> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in his sight

<04428>

held out
<03447> (8686)

to Esther
<0635>

the golden
<02091>

sceptre
<08275>

the top
<07218>

of the sceptre

favour
<02580>

in thy sight
<05869>_,

O king
<04428>_,

and if it please

of Esther
<0635>_,

the daughter
<01323>

the uncle
<01730>

of Mordecai
<04782>_,

who had taken
<03947> (8804)

her for his daughter
<01323>_,

was come
<05060> (8687)

to go in
<0935> (8800)

unto the king
<04428>_,

she required
<01245> (8765)

nothing
<01697>

but what Hegai
<01896>

the king's
<04428>

chamberlain
<05631>_,

the keeper
<08104> (8802)

of the women

the king
<04428>_,

and if I have found
<04672> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in his sight

and the thing
<01697>

[seem] right
<03787> (8804)

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_,

and I [be] pleasing
<02896>

in his eyes
<05869>_,

let it be written
