dough, and our offerings, and the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, unto the priests, to the chambers of the
house of our God; and the
tithes of our ground unto the Levites, that the same Levites might have the
tithes in all the cities of our
tillage.
Moreover, we will bring to the priests at the storerooms of the
house of our God the firstfruits of our
dough, of our grain offerings, of the fruit of all our trees, and of our new wine and oil. A tenth of our produce belongs to the Levites, so that they shall receive

tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah

And on that same day men were appointed over the rooms that

tithes. The portions specified by the Law for the priests and Levites were gathered into these storerooms from the fields of the villages, because Judah
rejoiced over the priests and Levites who were serving.

Tobiah by providing him a room in the courts of the
house of God.

grieved me
sore: therefore I cast forth all the
household stuff of
Tobiah out of the chamber.
And I was greatly displeased and threw all of
Tobiah’s
household goods out of the room.
Then I commanded, and they
cleansed the chambers: and thither brought I again the vessels of the
house of God, with the meat offering and the
frankincense.
Then I ordered that the rooms be
purified, and I had the articles of the
house of God restored to them, along with the grain offerings and
frankincense.
Then
contended I with the rulers, and said, Why is the

And the drinking was according to the law; none did

For he sent letters into all the king’s provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that it should be published according to the language of every people.
He sent letters to all the provinces of the kingdom, to each province in its own
script and to each people in their own language,
proclaiming that every man should be master of his own
household.
And let the king
appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto
Shushan the palace, to the
house of the women unto the
custody of Hege the king’s
chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for
purification be given them:
and let the king
appoint commissioners in each province of his kingdom to
assemble all the beautiful young women into the
harem at the citadel of
Susa. Let them be placed under the care of Hegai, the king’s
eunuch in charge of the women, and let them be given beauty treatments.
So it came to pass, when the king’s commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto
Shushan the palace, to the
custody of Hegai, that
Esther was brought also unto the king’s
house, to the
custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
When the king’s command and edict had been proclaimed, many young women gathered at the citadel of
Susa under the care of Hegai.
Esther was also taken to the palace and placed under the care of Hegai, the
custodian of the women.
And the
maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for
purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, which were meet to be given her, out of the king’s
house: and he preferred her and her maids unto the best place of the
house of the women.
And the young woman pleased him and obtained his favor, so he quickly provided her with beauty treatments and the special diet. He assigned to her seven select maidservants from the palace and transferred her with them to the best place in the
harem.
And
Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women’s
house, to know how
Esther did, and what should become of her.
And every day
Mordecai would walk back and forth in front of the court of the
harem to learn about
Esther’s
welfare and what was happening to her.
Then thus came every
maiden unto the king;
whatsoever she desired was given her to go with her out of the
house of the women unto the king’s
house.
When the young woman would go to the king, she was given whatever she requested to take with her from the
harem to the king’s palace.
In the evening she went, and on the
morrow she returned into the second
house of the women, to the
custody of Shaashgaz, the king’s
chamberlain, which kept the concubines: she came in unto the king no more, except the king delighted in her, and that she were called by name.
She would go there in the evening, and in the morning she would return to a second
harem under the care of Shaashgaz, the king’s
eunuch in charge of the concubines. She would not return to the king unless he delighted in her and summoned her by name.
So
Esther was taken unto king
Ahasuerus into his
house royal in the tenth month, which is the month
Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
She was taken to King
Xerxes in the royal palace in the tenth month, the month of
Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
Then
Mordecai commanded to answer
Esther, Think not with
thyself that thou shalt escape in the king’s
house, more than all the Jews.
he sent back to her this reply: “Do not imagine that because you are in the king’s palace you alone will escape the fate of all the Jews.
For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there
enlargement and
deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s
house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?
For if you remain silent at this time, relief and
deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s
house will perish. And who knows if perhaps you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”
Now it came to pass on the third day, that
Esther put on her royal
apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king’s
house, over against the king’s
house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal
house, over against the gate of the
house.
On the third day,
Esther put on her royal
attire and stood in the inner court of the palace across from the king’s quarters. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the royal courtroom, facing the entrance.
And the king said, Who is in the court? Now
Haman was come into the outward court of the king’s
house, to speak unto the king to
hang Mordecai on the
gallows that he had prepared for him.
“Who is in the court?” the king asked. Now
Haman had just entered the outer court of the palace to ask the king to
hang Mordecai on the
gallows he had prepared for him.
And
Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But
Haman hasted to his
house mourning, and having his head covered.
Then
Mordecai returned to the king’s gate. But
Haman rushed home, with his head covered in grief.
Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the
banquet of wine; and
Haman was fallen upon the bed
whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the
house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered
Haman’s face.
Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the
banquet hall,
Haman was falling on the
couch where
Esther was
reclining. The king
exclaimed, “Would he actually
assault the queen while I am in the palace?” As soon as the words had left the king’s mouth, they covered
Haman’s face.
And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the
gallows fifty cubits high, which
Haman had made for
Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the
house of
Haman. Then the king said,
Hang him
thereon.
Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said: “There is a
gallows fifty cubits high at
Haman’s
house. He had it built for
Mordecai, who gave the report that saved the king.” “
Hang him on it!” declared the king.
On that day did the king
Ahasuerus give the
house of
Haman the Jews’ enemy unto
Esther the queen. And
Mordecai came before the king; for
Esther had told what he was unto her.
For
Mordecai was great in the king’s
house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces: for this man
Mordecai waxed greater and greater.
For
Mordecai exercised great power in the palace, and his fame spread throughout the provinces as he became more and more powerful.
His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she
asses, and a very great
household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.
and he owned 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female
donkeys, and a very large number of servants. Job was the greatest man of all the people of the East.
And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

house. It
collapsed on the young people and they are dead, and I alone have escaped to tell you!”
