« Esther 1Esther 2Esther 3 »

18 Then ^athe king held a great feast, Esther’s feast, for all his princes and his servants; he also held a remission of taxes for the provinces and gave gifts ^baccording to the king’s hand.
19 ^aAnd when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai ^bwas sitting at the king’s gate. 20 ^aEsther had not yet told anyone about her kinsmen or her people, just as Mordecai had commanded her; indeed Esther was doing ¹what Mordecai declared that she do, just as she had done ^bwhen she was being brought up by him.
