As soon as the kingH4428 sawH7200 QueenH4436 EstherH635 standingH5975 in the courtH2691, she foundH5375 favorH2580 in his sightH5869. The kingH4428 extendedH3447 the goldH2091 scepterH8275 in his handH3027 toward EstherH635, and sheH635 approachedH7126 and touchedH5060 the tipH7218 of the scepterH8275.

3“WhatH4100 is it, QueenH4436 EstherH635?” the kingH4428 inquiredH559. “WhatH4100 is your requestH1246? Even up toH5704 halfH2677 the kingdomH4438, it will be givenH5414 to you.”

4“IfH518 it pleasesH5921 the kingH4428H2896,” EstherH635 repliedH559, “may the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 comeH935 todayH3117 toH413 the banquetH4960 I have preparedH6213 for the king.”

5“HurryH4116,” commandedH559 the kingH4428, “and bring HamanH2001, so we can doH6213 as EstherH635 has requestedH1697.”

So the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 wentH935 toH413 the banquetH4960 thatH834 EstherH635 had preparedH6213. 6And as they drankH4960 their wineH3196, the kingH4428 saidH559 to EstherH635, “WhatH4100 is your petitionH7596? It will be givenH5414 to you. WhatH4100 is your requestH1246? Even up toH5704 halfH2677 the kingdomH4438, it will be fulfilledH6213.”

7EstherH635H559 repliedH6030, “This is my petitionH7596 and my requestH1246: 8IfH518 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of the kingH4428, and ifH518 it pleasesH5921 the kingH4428H2896 to grantH5414 my petitionH7596 and fulfillH6213 my requestH1246, may the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 comeH935 tomorrowH4279 toH413 the banquetH4960 I will prepareH6213 for them. Then I will answerH6213 the king’sH4428 questionH1697.”
