Esther 5:1-2

1Now it came about 1on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes and stood 2in the inner court of the king’s palace in front of the king’s 3rooms, and the king was sitting on his royal throne in the 4throne room, opposite the entrance to the palace.

2When the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, 5she obtained favor in his sight; and 6the king extended to Esther the golden scepter which was in his hand. So Esther came near and touched the top of the scepter.
