then in this wise came the maiden to the king: whatever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women to the king's house.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “that”

Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. Esther obtained favor in the sight of all those who looked at her.

After these things did king Ahasuerus promote Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.

אֲשֶׁ֥ר 'a.Sher “who”

All the king's servants, who were in the king's gate, bowed down, and did reverence to Haman; for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai didn't bow down, nor did him reverence.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “who”

Then the king's servants, who were in the king's gate, said to Mordecai, Why disobey you the king's commandment?

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “who”

Now it came to pass, when they spoke daily to him, and he didn't listen to them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told those who he was a Jew.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “that”

But he scorned the thought of laying hands on Mordecai alone; for they had made known to him the people of Mordecai: therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even the people of Mordecai.

אֲשֶׁ֛ר 'a.Sher “who”

Then were the king's scribes called in the first month, on the thirteenth day of it; and there was written according to all that Haman commanded to the king's satraps, and to the governors who were over every province, and to the princes of every people, to every province according to the writing of it, and to every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and it was sealed with the king's ring.

Now when Mordecai knew all that was done, Mordecai tore his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry;

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “that”

In every province, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “<of> where”

Then called Esther for Hathach, one of the king's chamberlains, whom he had appointed to attend on her, and charged him to go to Mordecai, to know what this was, and why it was.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “whom”

So Hathach went forth to Mordecai to the broad place of the city, which was before the king's gate.

אֲשֶׁ֖ר 'a.Sher “which”

Mordecai told him of all that had happened to him, and the exact sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the Jews, to destroy them.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “which”

All the king's servants, and the people of the king's provinces, do know, that whoever, whether man or woman, shall come to the king into the inner court, who is not called, there is one law for him, that he be put to death, except those to whom the king shall hold out the golden scepter, that he may live: but I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days.

Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast you for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast in like manner; and so will I go in to the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “which”

So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “that”

It was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favor in his sight; and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the scepter.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “which”

Esther said, If it seem good to the king, let the king and Haman come this day to the banquet that I have prepared for him.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “which”

Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that it may be done as Esther has said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.

אֲשֶׁר־ 'a.Sher- “which”

if I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do tomorrow as the king has said.

אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “which”

Haman recounted to them the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things in which the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.

אֲשֶׁ֨ר 'a.Sher “that”אֲשֶׁ֣ר 'a.Sher “this:”

Haman said moreover, Yes, Esther the queen did let no man come in with the king to the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and tomorrow also am I invited by her together with the king.
