15Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, came to go in to the king, she requested nothing but what Hegai the king's eunuch, the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favor in the sight of all who looked upon her.
16So Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus into his royal house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
17And the king loved Esther more than all the women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
18Then the king made a great feast for all his princes and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king.
19And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, Mordecai sat in the king's gate.
20Esther had not yet revealed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther obeyed the commandment of Mordecai, just as when she was brought up with him.
21In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's eunuchs, Bigthan and Teresh, of those who kept the door, were angry, and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.
22And the thing was known to Mordecai, who told it to Esther the queen; and Esther certified the king in Mordecai's name.
7And he raised Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was beautiful and lovely; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter.
8So it came to pass, when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together at Shushan the palace, under the custody of Hegai, that Esther was also brought to the king's house, under the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
9And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness from him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, suitable to be given to her, from the king's house: and he preferred her and her maids to the best place of the house of the women.
10Esther had not revealed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not reveal it.
11And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women's house, to know how Esther did, and what would become of her.
12Now when every maid's turn had come to go in to King Ahasuerus, after she had completed twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for thus were the days of their purification accomplished, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet fragrances, and with other things for the purifying of the women;)
13Then thus came every maiden to the king; whatever she desired was given to her to go with her from the house of the women to the king's house.
1After these things, when the wrath of King Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
2Then the king's servants who served him said, "Let beautiful young virgins be sought for the king."
3And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the beautiful young virgins to Shushan the palace, to the house of the women, under the custody of Hegai the king's eunuch, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given them.

16And Memucan answered before the king and the princes, 'Queen Vashti has not only wronged the king but also all the princes and all the people who are in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus.
17For the queen's actions shall be made known to all women, so that they will despise their husbands in their eyes, when it shall be reported,
18Likewise, shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day to all the king's princes who have heard of the queen's action. Thus, there shall arise much contempt and wrath.
19If it pleases the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it shall not be altered, that Vashti shall no more come before King Ahasuerus, and let the king give her royal estate to another who is better than she.

1Now it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel and stood in the inner court of the king's house, opposite the king's house. And the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, opposite the gate of the house.
2And it was so, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight. And the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. So Esther drew near and touched the top of the scepter.

9And Hatach came and reported Mordecai's words to Esther.

But I have not been called to come to the king these thirty days.
12And they told Mordecai Esther's words.
7And the king, arising from the wine banquet in his wrath, went into the palace garden: and Haman stood up to plead for his life to Queen Esther; for he saw that evil was determined against him by the king.
8Then the king returned from the palace garden to the place of the wine banquet; and Haman had fallen on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, Will he also assault the queen before me in the house? As the words came out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
5Then Esther called for Hatach, one of the king's chamberlains, whom he had appointed to attend to her, and ordered him to go to Mordecai to learn what this was and why it was.
15Then Esther sent this reply to Mordecai:
14And while they were still talking with him, the king's chamberlains came, and hurried to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
1So the king and Haman came to feast with Queen Esther.

2In those days, when King Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the palace,
4And Esther answered, If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come this day to the banquet that I have prepared for him.
4Then the king held out the golden scepter toward Esther. So Esther arose and stood before the king,
5And said, If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and the matter is right before the king, and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews in all the king's provinces.
8If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said.
