Esther 2:15-18

Now when the turn
<08447>
of Esther
<0635>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of Abihail
<032>
the uncle
<01730>
of Mordecai
<04782>_,
who had taken
<03947> (8804)
her for his daughter
<01323>_,
was come
<05060> (8687)
to go in
<0935> (8800)
unto the king
<04428>_,
she required
<01245> (8765)
nothing
<01697>
but what Hegai
<01896>
the king's
<04428>
chamberlain
<05631>_,
the keeper
<08104> (8802)
of the women
<0802>_,
appointed
<0559> (8799)_.
And Esther
<0635>
obtained
<05375> (8802)
favour
<02580>
in the sight
<05869>
of all them that looked
<07200> (8802)
upon her.
So Esther
<0635>
was taken
<03947> (8735)
unto king
<04428>
Ahasuerus
<0325>
into his house
<01004>
royal
<04438>
in the tenth
<06224>
month
<02320>_,
which [is] the month
<02320>
Tebeth
<02887>_,
in the seventh
<07651>
year
<08141>
of his reign
<04438>_.
And the king
<04428>
loved
<0157> (8799)
Esther
<0635>
above all the women
<0802>_,
and she obtained
<05375> (8799)
grace
<02580>
and favour
<02617>
in his sight
<06440>
more than all the virgins
<01330>_;
so that he set
<07760> (8799)
the royal
<04438>
crown
<03804>
upon her head
<07218>_,
and made her queen
<04427> (8686)
instead of Vashti
<02060>_.
{favour: or, kindness} {in his...: Heb. before him}
Then the king
<04428>
made
<06213> (8799)
a great
<01419>
feast
<04960>
unto all his princes
<08269>
and his servants
<05650>_,
[even] Esther's
<0635>
feast
<04960>_;
and he made
<06213> (8804)
a release
<02010>
to the provinces
<04082>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
gifts
<04864>_,
according to the state
<03027>
of the king
<04428>_.
{release: Heb. rest}
