rsv@Nehemiah:1:11 @ O Lord, let thy ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants who delight to fear thy name; and give success to thy servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." Now I was cupbearer to the king.

rsv@Nehemiah:2:3 @ I said to the king, "Let the king live for ever! Why should not my face be sad, when the city, the place of my fathers' sepulchres, lies waste, and its gates have been destroyed by fire?"

rsv@Esther:6:8 @ let royal robes be brought, which the king has worn, and the horse which the king has ridden, and on whose head a royal crown is set;
