H0853–אֵת–et

When Mordecai perceived all that was done, Mordecai rent 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;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

So Esther's maids and her chamberlains came and told it her. Then was the queen exceedingly grieved; and she sent raiment to clothe Mordecai, and to take away his sackcloth from him: but he received it not.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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

אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”וְאֵ֣ת׀ (אֵ֣ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Also he gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given at Shushan to destroy them, to shew it unto Esther, and to declare it unto her, and to charge her that she should go in unto the king, to make supplication unto him, and to make request before him for her people.

וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Hatach came and told Esther the words of Mordecai.

אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And they told to Mordecai Esther's words.

אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And it was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

If I have found favour 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 to morrow as the king hath said.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then went Haman forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Nevertheless Haman refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And Haman told them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.> [about]”וְאֵת֩ (אֵת֩) 'Et “<obj.> [about]”וְאֵ֣ת (אֵ֣ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

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

אוֹתִ֑י (אוֹתִ֑) 'o.T “<obj.>”

Yet all this availeth me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.

אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

And while they were yet talking with him, came the king's chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the banquet that Esther had prepared.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
