Esther 7:1-4

1And the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 cameH935 to drinkH8354 with EstherH635 the queenH4436.

2And the kingH4428 saidH559 again to EstherH635 on the secondH8145 dayH3117, at the banquet of wineH3196, What is thy petitionH7596, queenH4436 EstherH635? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy requestH1246? even to the halfH2677 of the kingdomH4438 it shall be done.

3And EstherH635 the queenH4436 answered and saidH559, If I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in thy sight, O kingH4428, and if it please the kingH4428, let my lifeH5315 be givenH5414 me at my petitionH7596, and my peopleH5971 at my requestH1246;

4for we are soldH4376, I and my peopleH5971, to be destroyedH8045, to be slainH2026, and to perishH6. But if we had been soldH4376 for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the adversary could not compensate the king's damage.
