1
Now it came to pass1961 on the third7992 day,3117 that Esther635 put on3847 her royal4438 apparel, and stood5975 in the inner6442 court2691 of the king's4428 house,1004 over against5227 the king's4428 house:1004 and the king4428 sat3427 upon5921 his royal4438 throne3678 in the royal4438 house,1004 over against5227 the gate6607 of the house.1004

2
And it was1961 so, when the king4428 saw7200 853 Esther635 the queen4436 standing5975 in the court,2691 that she obtained5375 favor2580 in his sight:5869 and the king4428 held out3447 to Esther635 853 the golden2091 scepter8275 that834 was in his hand.3027 So Esther635 drew near,7126 and touched5060 the top7218 of the scepter.8275

3
Then said559 the king4428 unto her, What4100 wilt thou, queen4436 Esther?635 and what4100 is thy request?1246 it shall be even given5414 thee to5704 the half2677 of the kingdom.4438

4
And Esther635 answered,559 If518 it seem good2895 unto5921 the king,4428 let the king4428 and Haman2001 come935 this day3117 unto413 the banquet4960 that834 I have prepared6213 for him.

5 Then the king4428 said,559 Cause 853 Haman2001 to make haste,4116 that he may do6213 853 as Esther635 hath said.1697 So the king4428 and Haman2001 came935 to413 the banquet4960 that834 Esther635 had prepared.6213

6
And the king4428 said559 unto Esther635 at the banquet4960 of wine,3196 What4100 is thy petition?7596 and it shall be granted5414 thee: and what4100 is thy request?1246 even to5704 the half2677 of the kingdom4438 it shall be performed.6213

7
Then answered6030 Esther,635 and said,559 My petition7596 and my request1246 is;

8 If518 I have found4672 favor2580 in the sight5869 of the king,4428 and if518 it please2895 5921 the king4428 to grant5414 853 my petition,7596 and to perform6213 853 my request,1246 let the king4428 and Haman2001 come935 to413 the banquet4960 that834 I shall prepare6213 for them, and I will do6213 tomorrow4279 as the king4428 hath said.1697

9
Then went Haman forth3318 2001 that1931 day3117 joyful8056 and with a glad2896 heart:3820 but when Haman2001 saw7200 853 Mordecai4782 in the king's4428 gate,8179 that he stood not up,6965 3808 nor3808 moved2111 for4480 him,2001 he2001 was full4390 of indignation2534 against5921 Mordecai.4782

10
Nevertheless Haman2001 refrained himself:662 and when he came935 413 home,1004 he sent7971 and called935 for 853 his friends,157 and Zeresh2238 his wife.802

11
And Haman2001 told5608 them of 853 the glory3519 of his riches,6239 and the multitude7230 of his children,1121 and all3605 the things wherein834 the king4428 had promoted1431 him, and how834 he had advanced5375 him above5921 the princes8269 and servants5650 of the king.4428

12
Haman2001 said559 moreover,637 Yea, Esther635 the queen4436 did let no3808 man come in935 with5973 the king4428 unto413 the banquet4960 that834 she had prepared6213 but3588 518 myself; and tomorrow4279 am I589 invited7121 unto her also1571 with5973 the king.4428

13
Yet all3605 this2088 availeth7737 me nothing,369 so long3605 6256 as I589 see7200 853 Mordecai4782 the Jew3064 sitting3427 at the king's4428 gate.8179

14
Then said559 Zeresh2238 his wife802 and all3605 his friends157 unto him, Let a gallows6086 be made6213 of fifty2572 cubits520 high,1364 and tomorrow1242 speak559 thou unto the king4428 that 853 Mordecai4782 may be hanged8518 thereon:5921 then go935 thou in merrily8056 with5973 the king4428 unto413 the banquet.4960 And the thing1697 pleased3190 6440 Haman;2001 and he caused the gallows6086 to be made.6213

1 καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ ὡς ἐπαύσατο προσευχομένη ἐξεδύσατο τὰ ἱμάτια τῆς θεραπείας καὶ περιεβάλετο τὴν δόξαν αὐτῆς

καὶ γενηθεῖσα ἐπιφανὴς ἐπικαλεσαμένη τὸν πάντων ἐπόπτην θεὸν καὶ σωτῆρα παρέλαβεν τὰς δύο ἅβρας καὶ τῇ μὲν μιᾷ ἐπηρείδετο ὡς τρυφερευομένη ἡ δὲ ἑτέρα ἐπηκολούθει κουφίζουσα τὴν ἔνδυσιν αὐτῆς

καὶ αὐτὴ ἐρυθριῶσα ἀκμῇ κάλλους αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς ἱλαρὸν ὡς προσφιλές ἡ δὲ καρδία αὐτῆς ἀπεστενωμένη ἀπὸ τοῦ φόβου

καὶ εἰσελθοῦσα πάσας τὰς θύρας κατέστη ἐνώπιον τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ αὐτὸς ἐκάθητο ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν στολὴν τῆς ἐπιφανείας αὐτοῦ ἐνεδεδύκει ὅλος διὰ χρυσοῦ καὶ λίθων πολυτελῶν καὶ ἦν φοβερὸς σφόδρα

καὶ ἄρας τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πεπυρωμένον δόξῃ ἐν ἀκμῇ θυμοῦ ἔβλεψεν καὶ ἔπεσεν ἡ βασίλισσα καὶ μετέβαλεν τὸ χρῶμα αὐτῆς ἐν ἐκλύσει καὶ κατεπέκυψεν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν τῆς ἅβρας τῆς προπορευομένης

καὶ μετέβαλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸ πνεῦμα τοῦ βασιλέως εἰς πραΰτητα καὶ ἀγωνιάσας ἀνεπήδησεν ἀπὸ τοῦ θρόνου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνέλαβεν αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὰς ἀγκάλας αὐτοῦ μέχρις οὗ κατέστη καὶ παρεκάλει αὐτὴν λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ

τί ἐστιν Εσθηρ ἐγὼ ὁ ἀδελφός σου θάρσει οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃς ὅτι κοινὸν τὸ πρόσταγμα ἡμῶν ἐστιν πρόσελθε

2 καὶ ἄρας τὴν χρυσῆν ῥάβδον ἐπέθηκεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτῆς καὶ ἠσπάσατο αὐτὴν καὶ εἶπεν λάλησόν μοι

καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ εἶδόν σε κύριε ὡς ἄγγελον θεοῦ καὶ ἐταράχθη ἡ καρδία μου ἀπὸ φόβου τῆς δόξης σου ὅτι θαυμαστὸς εἶ κύριε καὶ τὸ πρόσωπόν σου χαρίτων μεστόν

ἐν δὲ τῷ διαλέγεσθαι αὐτὴν ἔπεσεν ἀπὸ ἐκλύσεως αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐταράσσετο καὶ πᾶσα ἡ θεραπεία αὐτοῦ παρεκάλει αὐτήν

3 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς τί θέλεις Εσθηρ καὶ τί σού ἐστιν τὸ ἀξίωμα ἕως τοῦ ἡμίσους τῆς βασιλείας μου καὶ ἔσται σοι

4 εἶπεν δὲ Εσθηρ ἡμέρα μου ἐπίσημος σήμερόν ἐστιν εἰ οὖν δοκεῖ τῷ βασιλεῖ ἐλθάτω καὶ αὐτὸς καὶ Αμαν εἰς τὴν δοχήν ἣν ποιήσω σήμερον

5 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς κατασπεύσατε Αμαν ὅπως ποιήσωμεν τὸν λόγον Εσθηρ καὶ παραγίνονται ἀμφότεροι εἰς τὴν δοχήν ἣν εἶπεν Εσθηρ

6 ἐν δὲ τῷ πότῳ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς πρὸς Εσθηρ τί ἐστιν βασίλισσα Εσθηρ καὶ ἔσται σοι ὅσα ἀξιοῖς

7 καὶ εἶπεν τὸ αἴτημά μου καὶ τὸ ἀξίωμά μου

8 εἰ εὗρον χάριν ἐνώπιον τοῦ βασιλέως ἐλθάτω ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ Αμαν ἐπὶ τὴν αὔριον εἰς τὴν δοχήν ἣν ποιήσω αὐτοῖς καὶ αὔριον ποιήσω τὰ αὐτά

9 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ Αμαν ἀπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως ὑπερχαρὴς εὐφραινόμενος ἐν δὲ τῷ ἰδεῖν Αμαν Μαρδοχαῖον τὸν Ιουδαῖον ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ ἐθυμώθη σφόδρα

10 καὶ εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὰ ἴδια ἐκάλεσεν τοὺς φίλους καὶ Ζωσαραν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ

11 καὶ ὑπέδειξεν αὐτοῖς τὸν πλοῦτον αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν δόξαν ἣν ὁ βασιλεὺς αὐτῷ περιέθηκεν καὶ ὡς ἐποίησεν αὐτὸν πρωτεύειν καὶ ἡγεῖσθαι τῆς βασιλείας

12 καὶ εἶπεν Αμαν οὐ κέκληκεν ἡ βασίλισσα μετὰ τοῦ βασιλέως οὐδένα εἰς τὴν δοχὴν ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἐμέ καὶ εἰς τὴν αὔριον κέκλημαι

13 καὶ ταῦτά μοι οὐκ ἀρέσκει ὅταν ἴδω Μαρδοχαῖον τὸν Ιουδαῖον ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ

14 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Ζωσαρα ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ φίλοι κοπήτω σοι ξύλον πηχῶν πεντήκοντα ὄρθρου δὲ εἰπὸν τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ κρεμασθήτω Μαρδοχαῖος ἐπὶ τοῦ ξύλου σὺ δὲ εἴσελθε εἰς τὴν δοχὴν σὺν τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ εὐφραίνου καὶ ἤρεσεν τὸ ῥῆμα τῷ Αμαν καὶ ἡτοιμάσθη τὸ ξύλον

1 Die autem tertio induta est Esther regalibus vestimentis, et stetit in atrio domus regi, quod erat interius, contra basilicam regis: at ille sedebat super solium suum in consistorio palatii contra ostium domus.

2 Cumque vidisset Esther reginam stantem, placuit oculis ejus, et extendit contra eam virgam auream, quam tenebat manu: qu accedens, osculata est summitatem virg ejus.

3 Dixitque ad eam rex: Quid vis, Esther regina? qu est petitio tua? etiam si dimidiam partem regni petieris, dabitur tibi.

4 At illa respondit: Si regi placet, obsecro ut venias ad me hodie, et Aman tecum, ad convivium quod paravi.

5 Statimque rex: Vocate, inquit, cito Aman ut Esther obediat voluntati. Venerunt itaque rex et Aman ad convivium, quod eis regina paraverat.

6 Dixitque ei rex, postquam vinum biberat abundanter: Quid petis ut detur tibi? et pro qua re postulas? etiam si dimidiam partem regni mei petieris, impetrabis.

7 Cui respondit Esther: Petitio mea, et preces sunt ist:

8 si inveni in conspectu regis gratiam, et si regi placet ut det mihi quod postulo, et meam impleat petitionem: veniat rex et Aman ad convivium quod paravi eis, et cras aperiam regi voluntatem meam.

9 Egressus est itaque illo die Aman ltus et alacer. Cumque vidisset Mardochum sedentem ante fores palatii, et non solum non assurrexisse sibi, sed nec motum quidem de loco sessionis su, indignatus est valde:

10 et dissimulata ira reversus in domum suam, convocavit ad se amicos suos, et Zares uxorem suam,

11 et exposuit illis magnitudinem divitiarum suarum, filiorumque turbam, et quanta eum gloria super omnes principes et servos suos rex elevasset.

12 Et post hc ait: Regina quoque Esther nullum alium vocavit ad convivium cum rege prter me: apud quam etiam cras cum rege pransurus sum.

13 Et cum hc omnia habeam, nihil me habere puto, quamdiu videro Mardochum Judum sedentem ante fores regias.

14 Responderuntque ei Zares uxor ejus, et ceteri amici: Jube parari excelsam trabem, habentem altitudinis quinquaginta cubitos, et dic mane regi ut appendatur super eam Mardochus, et sic ibis cum rege ltus ad convivium. Placuit ei consilium, et jussit excelsam parari crucem.
