12And they told Mordecai Esther's words.
13Then Mordecai instructed them to reply to Esther, "Do not think in your heart that you will escape in the king's house more than all the Jews.
14For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"
15Then Esther sent this reply to Mordecai:
16"Go, gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my maidens will fast likewise. And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish."
17So Mordecai went his way and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.
8Also he gave him a copy of the written decree that was given at Shushan to destroy them, to show it to Esther and explain it to her, and to charge her to go to the king, to plead with him and make a request before him for her people.
9And Hatach came and reported Mordecai's words to Esther.
10Again Esther spoke to Hatach, and gave him a command for Mordecai:
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.
14In the evening she went, and in the morning she returned to the second house of the women, under the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch, who kept the concubines: she came to the king no more, unless the king delighted in her, and she was called by name.
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.
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.
15What shall we do to Queen Vashti according to law, because she has not performed the commandment of King Ahasuerus by the eunuchs?
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.
4So Esther's maids and her chamberlains came and told her. Then the queen was exceedingly grieved, and she sent garments to clothe Mordecai, and to take away his sackcloth from him, but he would not accept them.
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.
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.
4And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king's house to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows he had prepared for him.
5And the king's servants said to him, Look, Haman stands in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
12Haman said moreover, Yes, Queen Esther did let no man come in with the king to the banquet that she had prepared, but myself; and tomorrow I am invited to her also with the king.
13Yet all this profits me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.
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.
5Then the king said, Make Haman hurry, so that he may do as Esther has said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
5Then King Ahasuerus answered and said to Queen Esther, Who is he, and where is he, that dares presume in his heart to do so?
10On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus,
11To bring Queen Vashti before the king with the royal crown, to show the people and the princes her beauty, for she was fair to look upon.
12But Queen Vashti refused to come at the king's commandment by his eunuchs; therefore, the king was very angry, and his fury burned within him.
13Then the king said to the wise men who knew the times (for so was the king's manner toward all who knew law and judgment,
3Then the king's servants who were in the king's gate said to Mordecai, "Why do you transgress the king's commandment?"
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.
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.
12Then they came near and spoke before the king concerning the king's decree; Have you not signed a decree, that every man who shall ask a petition of any god or man within thirty days, except of you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be altered.
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.
3Then Queen Esther answered and said, If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be spared at my petition, and my people at my request:
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.
1On that day, King Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews, to Queen Esther. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had revealed who he was to her.
15Now therefore I have come to speak of this thing to my lord the king, because the people have made me afraid: and your maidservant said, I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his maidservant.
7Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and he has been hanged on the gallows, because he laid his hand on the Jews.
