Now in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002 there was a certainH376 JewH3064, whose nameH8034 was MordecaiH4782, the sonH1121 of JairH2971, the sonH1121 of ShimeiH8096, the sonH1121 of KishH7027, a BenjamiteH1145;
Who had been carried awayH1540 from JerusalemH3389 with the captivityH1473 which had been carried awayH1540 with JeconiahH3204 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, whom NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had carried awayH1540. {Jeconiah: or, Jehoiachin}
And he brought upH539 HadassahH1919, that is, EstherH635, his uncle'sH1730 daughterH1323: for she had neither fatherH1 nor motherH517, and the maidH5291 was fairH3303+H8389 and beautifulH2896+H4758; whom MordecaiH4782, when her fatherH1 and motherH517 were deadH4194, tookH3947 for his own daughterH1323. {brought…: Heb. nourished} {fair…: Heb. fair of form, and good of countenance}
So it came to pass, when the king'sH4428 commandmentH1697 and his decreeH1881 was heardH8085, and when manyH7227 maidensH5291 were gathered togetherH6908 unto ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002, to the custodyH3027 of HegaiH1896, that EstherH635 was broughtH3947 also unto the king'sH4428 houseH1004, to the custodyH3027 of HegaiH1896, keeperH8104 of the womenH802.
And the maidenH5291 pleasedH3190+H5869 him, and she obtainedH5375 kindnessH2617 of himH6440; and he speedilyH926 gaveH5414 her her things for purificationH8562, with such things as belongedH4490 to her, and sevenH7651 maidensH5291, which were meetH7200 to be givenH5414 her, out of the king'sH4428 houseH1004: and he preferredH8138 her and her maidsH5291 unto the bestH2896 place of the houseH1004 of the womenH802. {such…: Heb. her portions} {preferred: Heb. changed}
EstherH635 had not shewedH5046 her peopleH5971 nor her kindredH4138: for MordecaiH4782 had chargedH6680 her that she should not shewH5046 it.
And MordecaiH4782 walkedH1980 every dayH3117 beforeH6440 the courtH2691 of the women'sH802 houseH1004, to knowH3045 how EstherH635 didH7965, and what should becomeH6213 of her. {to know…: Heb. to know the peace}
Now when every maid'sH5291 turnH8447 was comeH5060 to go inH935 to kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, afterH7093 that she had been twelveH8147+H6240 monthsH2320, according to the mannerH1881 of the womenH802, (for so were the daysH3117 of their purificationsH4795 accomplishedH4390, to wit, sixH8337 monthsH2320 with oilH8081 of myrrhH4753, and sixH8337 monthsH2320 with sweet odoursH1314, and with other things for the purifyingH8562 of the womenH802;)
Then thus cameH935 every maidenH5291 unto the kingH4428; whatsoever she desiredH559 was givenH5414 her to goH935 with her out of the houseH1004 of the womenH802 unto the king'sH4428 houseH1004.
In the eveningH6153 she wentH935, and on the morrowH1242 she returnedH7725 into the secondH8145 houseH1004 of the womenH802, to the custodyH3027 of ShaashgazH8190, the king'sH4428 chamberlainH5631, which keptH8104 the concubinesH6370: she came inH935 unto the kingH4428 no more, except the kingH4428 delightedH2654 in her, and that she were calledH7121 by nameH8034.
Now when the turnH8447 of EstherH635, the daughterH1323 of AbihailH32 the uncleH1730 of MordecaiH4782, who had takenH3947 her for his daughterH1323, was comeH5060 to go inH935 unto the kingH4428, she requiredH1245 nothingH1697 but what HegaiH1896 the king'sH4428 chamberlainH5631, the keeperH8104 of the womenH802, appointedH559. And EstherH635 obtainedH5375 favourH2580 in the sightH5869 of all them that lookedH7200 upon her.
So EstherH635 was takenH3947 unto kingH4428 AhasuerusH325 into his houseH1004 royalH4438 in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, which is the monthH2320 TebethH2887, in the seventhH7651 yearH8141 of his reignH4438.
And the kingH4428 lovedH157 EstherH635 above all the womenH802, and she obtainedH5375 graceH2580 and favourH2617 in his sightH6440 more than all the virginsH1330; so that he setH7760 the royalH4438 crownH3804 upon her headH7218, and made her queenH4427 instead of VashtiH2060. {favour: or, kindness} {in his…: Heb. before him}
Then the kingH4428 madeH6213 a greatH1419 feastH4960 unto all his princesH8269 and his servantsH5650, even Esther'sH635 feastH4960; and he madeH6213 a releaseH2010 to the provincesH4082, and gaveH5414 giftsH4864, according to the stateH3027 of the kingH4428. {release: Heb. rest}
