and the next to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king's face, and sat first in the kingdom),

Memucan answered before the king and the princes, Vashti the queen has not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the peoples who are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus.

Then said the king's servants who ministered to him, Let there be beautiful young virgins sought for the king:

He brought up Hadassah, who is, Esther, his uncle's daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maiden was fair and beautiful; and when her father and mother were dead, Mordecai took her for his own daughter.

ל֖וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

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.

ל֨וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

Esther had not yet made known her relatives nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did the commandment of Mordecai, like as when she was brought up with him.

אִתּֽוֹ׃ (וֹ) o “him”

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.

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.

ל֣וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

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.

אֵלָיו֙ (ו֙) v “him”

When Haman saw that Mordecai didn't bow down, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath.

ל֑וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

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.

The king said to Haman, The silver is given to you, the people also, to do with them as it seems good to you.

בּ֖וֹ (וֹ) o “it”

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.

בּוֹ֒ (וֹ֒) o “it”

Esther's maidens and her chamberlains came and told it her; and the queen was exceedingly grieved: and she sent clothing to clothe Mordecai, and to take his sackcloth from off him; but he didn't receive it.

מֵעָלָ֖יו (ו) v “him”

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.

וַתְּצַוֵּ֖הוּ (הוּ) hu “him”

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.

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

ל֔וֹ (וֹ) o “him”ל֛וֹ (וֹ) o “him”

Then Esther spoke to Hathach, and gave him a message to Mordecai [ergänzt: saying]:

וַתְּצַוֵּ֖הוּ (הוּ) hu “him”

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.

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

עָלָ֖יו (ו) v “him”

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.

לֽוֹ׃ (וֹ) o “him”

Then went Haman forth that day joyful and glad of heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he didn't stand up nor move for him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai.

מִמֶּ֔נּוּ (נּוּ) nu “him”

Nevertheless Haman refrained himself, and went home; and he sent and fetched his friends and Zeresh his wife.

אֹהֲבָ֖יו (ו) v “his”

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.

גִּדְּל֤וֹ (וֹ) o “him”נִשְּׂא֔וֹ (וֹ) O “him”

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