bes@Esther:4:4 @ And the queen’s maids and chamberlains went in and told her: and when she had heard what was done, she was disturbed; and she sent to clothe Mardochaeus, and take away his sackcloth; but he consented not.

bes@Esther:4:5 @ So Esther called for her chamberlain Achrathaeus, who waited upon her; and she sent to learn the truth from Mardochaeus.

bes@Esther:4:7 @ And Mardochaeus shewed him what was done, and the promise which Aman had made the king of ten thousand talents to be paid into the treasury, that he might destroy the Jews.

bes@Esther:4:8 @ And he gave him the copy of the writing that was published in Susa concerning their destruction, to shew to Esther; and told him to charge her to go in and intreat the king, and to beg him for the people, remembering, said he, the days of thy low estate, how thou wert nursed by my hand: because Aman who holds the next place to the king has spoken against us for death. Do thou call upon the Lord, and speak to the king concerning us, to deliver us from death.

bes@Esther:4:9 @ So Achrathaeus went in and told her all these words.

bes@Esther:4:10 @ And Esther said to Achrathaeus, Go to Mardochaeus, and say,

bes@Esther:4:11 @ All the nations of the empire know, that whoever, man or woman, shall go in to the king into the inner court uncalled, that person cannot live: only to whomsoever the king shall stretch out his golden sceptre, he shall live: and I have not been called to go into the king, for these thirty days.

bes@Esther:4:12 @ And Achrathaeus reported to Mardochaeus all the words of Esther.

bes@Esther:4:13 @ Then Mardochaeus said to Achrathaeus, Go, and say to her, Esther, say not to thyself that thou alone wilt escape in the kingdom, more than all the other Jews.

bes@Esther:4:14 @ For if thou shalt refuse to hearken on this occasion, help and protection will be to the Jews from another quarter; but thou and thy father’s house will perish: and who knows, if thou hast been made queen for this very occasion?

bes@Esther:4:15 @ And Esther sent the man that came to her to Mardochaeus, saying,

bes@Esther:4:16 @ Go and assemble the Jews that are in Susa, and fast ye for me, and eat not and drink not for three days, night and day: and I also and my maidens will fast; and then I will go in to the king contrary to the law, even if I must die.

(5:2B) And while she was speaking, she fainted and fell. Then the king was troubled, and all his servants comforted her.

bes@Esther:5:3 @ And the king said, What wilt thou, Esther? and what is thy request? ask even to the half of my kingdom, and it shall be thine.

bes@Esther:5:4 @ And Esther said, To-day is my great day: if then it seem good to the king, let both him and Aman come to the feast which I will prepare this day.

bes@Esther:5:5 @ And the king said, Hasten Aman hither, that we may perform the word of Esther. So they both come to the feast of which Esther had spoken.

bes@Esther:5:12 @ And Aman said, The queen has called no one to the feast with the king but me, and I am invited to-morrow.

bes@Esther:5:13 @ But these things please me not, while I see Mardochaeus the Jew in the court.

bes@Esther:5:14 @ And Zosara his wife and his friends said to him, Let there be a (note:)Gr. a tree cut(:note) gallows made for thee of fifty cubits, and in the morning do thou speak to the king, and let Mardochaeus be hanged on the gallows: but do thou go in to the feast with the king, and be merry.

bes@Esther:6:1 @ But the Lord removed sleep from the king that night: and he told his servant to bring in the (note:)Gr. letters(:note) books, the registers of daily events, to read to him.

bes@Esther:6:2 @ And he found the (note:)Gr. letters(:note) records written concerning Mardochaeus, how he had told the king concerning the two chamberlains of the king, when they were keeping guard, and sought to lay hands on Artaxerxes.

bes@Esther:6:3 @ And the king said, What honour or favour have we done to Mardochaeus? And the king’s servants said, Thou hast not done anything to him.

bes@Esther:6:4 @ And while the king was enquiring about the kindness of Mardochaeus, behold, Aman was in the court. And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Aman was come in to speak to the king, that he should hang Mardochaeus on the gallows, which he had prepared.

bes@Esther:6:5 @ And the king’s servants said, Behold, Aman stands in the court. And the king said, Call him.

bes@Esther:6:6 @ And the king said to Aman, What shall I do to the man whom I wish to honour? And Aman said within himself, Whom would the king honour but myself?

bes@Esther:6:7 @ and he said to the king, As for the man whom the king wishes to honour,

bes@Esther:6:8 @ let the king’s servants bring the robe of fine linen which the king puts on, and the horse on which the king rides,

bes@Esther:6:11 @ So Aman took the robe and the horse, and arrayed Mardochaeus, and mounted him on the horse, and went through the street of the city, and proclaimed, saying, Thus shall it be to every man whom the king wishes to honour.

bes@Esther:6:12 @ And Mardochaeus returned to the palace: but Aman went home mourning, and having his head covered.

bes@Esther:6:13 @ And Aman related the events that had befallen him to Zosara his wife, and to his friends: and his friends and his wife said to him, (note:)Or, if it be M. etc., before whom(:note) If Mardochaeus be of the race of the Jews, and thou hast begun to be humbled before him, thou wilt assuredly fall, and thou wilt not be able to withstand him, for the living God is with him.

bes@Esther:7:4 @ For both I and my people are sold for destruction, and pillage, and slavery; both we and our children for bondmen and bondwomen: and I consented not to it, for the (note:)See. Hebrews.(:note) slanderer is not worthy of the king’s palace.

bes@Esther:7:5 @ And the king said, Who is this that has dared to do this thing?

bes@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, the (note:)Gr. hostile man(:note) adversary is Aman, this wicked man. Then Aman was troubled before the king and the queen.

bes@Esther:7:7 @ And the king rose up from the banquet to go into the garden: and Aman began to intreat the queen; for he saw that he was in (note:)Gr. evils(:note) an evil case.

bes@Esther:7:8 @ And the king returned from the garden; and Aman had fallen upon the bed, intreating the queen. And the king said, Wilt thou even force my wife in my house? And when Aman heard it, he changed countenance.

bes@Esther:7:9 @ And Bugathan, one of the chamberlains, said to the king, Behold, Aman has also prepared a gallows for Mardochaeus, who spoke concerning the king, and a gallows of fifty cubits high has been set up in the premises of Aman.

bes@Esther:8:3 @ And she spoke yet again to the king, and fell at his feet, and besought him to do away the mischief of Aman, and all that he had done against the Jews.

bes@Esther:8:4 @ Then the king stretched out to Esther the golden sceptre: and Esther arose to stand near the king.

bes@Esther:8:5 @ And Esther said, If it seem good to thee, and I have found favour in thy sight, let an order be sent that the letters sent by Aman may be reversed, that were written for the destruction of the Jews, who are in thy kingdom.

bes@Esther:8:6 @ For how shall I be able to look upon the affliction of my people, and how shall I be able to survive the destruction of my (note:)Gr. country(:note) kindred?

bes@Esther:8:7 @ And the king said to Esther, If I have given and freely granted thee all that was Aman’s, and hanged him on a gallows, because he laid his hands upon the Jews, what dost thou yet further seek?
