And it came to pass in the month
<02320>
<02320>
Nisan
<05212>_,
<05212>_,
in the twentieth
<06242>
<06242>

<07451>
in his presence
<06440>_.
<06440>_.
Wherefore the king
<04428>
<04428>
unto me, Why [is] thy countenance
<06440>
<06440>
sad
<07451>_,
<07451>_,
this [is] nothing [else] but sorrow
<07455>
<07455>
of heart
<03820>_.
<03820>_.
Then I was very

<04428>_,
Let the king
<04428>

<05769>_:
<05769>_:
why should not my countenance
<06440>
<06440>

<0784>_?
<0784>_?
unto the king
<04428>_,
<04428>_,
the king
<04428>_,
<04428>_,
and if thy servant
<05650>
<05650>
in thy sight
<06440>_,
<06440>_,

<03063>_,
<03063>_,
unto the city
<05892>
<05892>

And the king
<04428>
<04428>
unto me, (the queen
<07694>
<07694>
by him
<0681>,)
<0681>,)
For how long shall thy journey
<04109>
<04109>
the king
<04428>
<04428>
him a time
<02165>_.
{queen: Heb. wife}<02165>_.
unto the king
<04428>_,
<04428>_,
the king
<04428>_,
<04428>_,
let letters
<0107>
<0107>

<05104>_,
<05104>_,
into Judah
<03063>_;
<03063>_;
And a letter
<0107>
<0107>

<0623>
<0623>
of the king's
<04428>
<04428>
forest
<06508>_,
<06508>_,
me timber
<06086>
<06086>
for the gates
<08179>
<08179>
of the palace
<01002>
<01002>
which [appertained] to the house
<01004>_,
<01004>_,
and for the wall
<02346>
<02346>
of the city
<05892>_,
<05892>_,
and for the house
<01004>
<01004>
And the king
<04428>
<04428>
