So it came to pass, when the king's
<04428>
commandment
<01697>
and his decree
<01881>
was heard
<08085> (8736)_,
and when many

maidens
<05291>
were gathered together
<06908> (8736)
unto Shushan
<07800>
the palace
<01002>_,
to the custody
<03027>
of Hegai
<01896>_,
that Esther
<0635>
was brought
<03947> (8735)
also unto the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
to the custody
<03027>
of Hegai
<01896>_,
keeper
<08104> (8802)
of the women
<0802>_.
And the maiden
<05291>
pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>
him, and she obtained
<05375> (8799)
kindness
<02617>
of him
<06440>_;
and he speedily
<0926> (8762)
gave
<05414> (8800)
her her things for purification
<08562>_,
with such things as belonged
<04490>
to her, and seven

maidens
<05291>_,
[which were] meet
<07200> (8803)
to be given
<05414> (8800)
her, out of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_:
and he preferred
<08138> (8762)
her and her maids
<05291>
unto the best
<02896>
[place] of the house
<01004>
of the women
<0802>_.
{such...: Heb. her portions} {preferred: Heb. changed}

Now when every maid's
<05291>
turn
<08447>
was come
<05060> (8687)
to go in
<0935> (8800)
to king
<04428>
Ahasuerus
<0325>_,
after
<07093>
that she had been twelve
<08147> <06240>
months
<02320>_,
according to the manner
<01881>
of the women
<0802>_,
(for so were the days
<03117>
of their purifications
<04795>
accomplished
<04390> (8799)_,
[to wit], six
<08337>
months
<02320>
with oil
<08081>
of myrrh
<04753>_,
and six
<08337>

<02320>
with sweet odours
<01314>_,
and with [other] things for the purifying
<08562>
of the women

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}
