A man, a Jew, there hath been in Shushan the palace, and his name `is' Mordecai son of Jair, son of Shimei, son of Kish, a Benjamite --

מָרְדֳּכַ֗י ma.re.do.Khai “[was] Mordecai”

and he is supporting Hadassah -- she `is' Esther -- daughter of his uncle, for she hath neither father nor mother, and the young woman `is' of fair form, and of good appearance, and at the death of her father and her mother hath Mordecai taken her to him for a daughter.

מָרְדֳּכַ֛י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

Esther hath not declared her people, and her kindred, for Mordecai hath laid a charge on her that she doth not declare `it';

מָרְדֳּכַ֛י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and during every day Mordecai is walking up and down before the court of the house of the women to know the welfare of Esther, and what is done with her.

מָרְדֳּכַי֙ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And in the drawing nigh of the turn of Esther -- daughter of Abihail, uncle of Mordecai, whom he had taken to him for a daughter -- to come in unto the king, she hath not sought a thing except that which Hegai eunuch of the king, keeper of the women, saith, and Esther is receiving grace in the eyes of all seeing her.

מָרְדֳּכַ֡י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And in the virgins being gathered a second time, then Mordecai is sitting in the gate of the king;

וּמָרְדֳּכַ֖י (מָרְדֳּכַ֖י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

Esther is not declaring her kindred and her people, as Mordecai hath laid a charge upon her, and the saying of Mordecai Esther is doing as when she was truly with him.

מָרְדֳּכָ֑י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”מָרְדֳּכַי֙ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

In those days, when Mordecai is sitting in the gate of the king, hath Bigthan been wroth, and Teresh, (two of the eunuchs of the king, the keepers of the threshold,) and they seek to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus,

וּמָרְדֳּכַ֖י (מָרְדֳּכַ֖י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and the thing is known to Mordecai, and he declareth `it' to Esther the queen, and Esther speaketh to the king in the name of Mordecai,

לְמָרְדֳּכַ֔י (מָרְדֳּכַ֔י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”מָרְדֳּכָֽי׃ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and all servants of the king, who `are' in the gate of the king, are bowing and doing obeisance to Haman, for so hath the king commanded for him; and Mordecai doth not bow nor do obeisance.

וּמָ֨רְדֳּכַ֔י (מָ֨רְדֳּכַ֔י) Ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And the servants of the king, who `are' in the gate of the king, say to Mordecai, `Wherefore `art' thou transgressing the command of the king?'

לְמָרְדֳּכָ֑י (מָרְדֳּכָ֑י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And it cometh to pass, in their speaking unto him, day by day, and he hath not hearkened unto them, that they declare `it' to Haman, to see whether the words of Mordecai do stand, for he hath declared to them that he `is' a Jew.

מָרְדֳּכַ֔י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Haman seeth that Mordecai is not bowing and doing obeisance to him, and Haman is full of fury,

מָרְדֳּכַ֔י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and it is contemptible in his eyes to put forth a hand on Mordecai by himself, for they have declared to him the people of Mordecai, and Haman seeketh to destroy all the Jews who `are' in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus -- the people of Mordecai.

בְּמָרְדֳּכַ֣י (מָרְדֳּכַ֣י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”מָרְדֳּכָ֑י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”מָרְדֳּכָֽי׃ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Mordecai hath known all that hath been done, and Mordecai rendeth his garments, and putteth on sackcloth and ashes, and goeth forth into the midst of the city and crieth -- a cry loud and bitter,

וּמָרְדֳּכַ֗י (מָרְדֳּכַ֗י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”מָרְדֳּכַי֙ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And young women of Esther come in and her eunuchs, and declare `it' to her, and the queen is exceedingly pained, and sendeth garments to clothe Mordecai, and to turn aside his sackcloth from off him, and he hath not received `them'.

מָרְדֳּכַ֗י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Esther calleth to Hatach, of the eunuchs of the king, whom he hath stationed before her, and giveth him a charge for Mordecai, to know what this `is', and wherefore this `is'.

מָרְדֳּכָ֑י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Hatach goeth out unto Mordecai, unto a broad place of the city, that `is' before the gate of the king,

מָרְדֳּכָ֑י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and Mordecai declareth to him all that hath met him, and the explanation of the money that Haman said to weigh to the treasuries of the king for the Jews, to destroy them,

מָרְדֳּכַ֔י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Hatach cometh in and declareth to Esther the words of Mordecai,

מָרְדֳּכָֽי׃ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and Esther speaketh to Hatach, and chargeth him for Mordecai:

מָרְדֳּכָֽי׃ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And they declare to Mordecai the words of Esther,

לְמָרְדֳּכָ֔י (מָרְדֳּכָ֔י) ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

and Mordecai speaketh to send back unto Esther: `Do not think in thy soul to be delivered `in' the house of the king, more than all the Jews,

מָרְדֳּכַ֖י ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Esther speaketh to send back unto Mordecai:

מָרְדֳּכָֽי׃ ma.re.do.Khai “Mordecai”

And Mordecai passeth on, and doth according to all that Esther hath charged upon him.
