LEITURA Bíblia Sagrada     Versão - João Ferreira de Almeida - 2ª edição PT-BR King James Version Gênesis 26 Mateus  25 Ester 2 LEITURA  25º DIA  ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  Gênesis 26 1 Sobrevindo fome à terra, além da primeira havida nos dias de Abraão, foi Isaque a Gerar, avistar-se com Abimeleque, rei dos filisteus. 2 Apareceu-lhe o SENHOR e disse: Não desças ao Egito. Fica na terra que eu te disser; 3 habita nela, e serei contigo e te abençoarei; porque a ti e a tua descendência darei todas estas terras e confirmarei o juramento que fiz a Abraão, teu pai. 4 Multiplicarei a tua descendência como as estrelas dos céus e lhe darei todas estas terras. Na tua descendência serão abençoadas todas as nações da terra; 5 porque Abraão obedeceu à minha palavra e guardou os meus mandados, os meus preceitos, os meus estatutos e as minhas leis. 6 Isaque, pois, ficou em Gerar. 7 Perguntando-lhe os homens daquele lugar a respeito de sua mulher, disse: É minha irmã; pois temia dizer: É minha mulher; para que, dizia ele consigo, os homens do lugar não me matem por amor de Rebeca, porque era formosa de aparência. 8 Ora, tendo Isaque permanecido ali por muito tempo, Abimeleque, rei dos filisteus, olhando da janela, viu que Isaque acariciava a Rebeca, sua mulher. 9 Então, Abimeleque chamou a Isaque e lhe disse: É evidente que ela é tua esposa; como, pois, disseste: É minha irmã? Respondeu-lhe Isaque: Porque eu dizia: para que eu não morra por causa dela. 10 Disse Abimeleque: Que é isso que nos fizeste? Facilmente algum do povo teria abusado de tua mulher, e tu, atraído sobre nós grave delito. 11 E deu esta ordem a todo o povo: Qualquer que tocar a este homem ou à sua mulher certamente morrerá. 12 Semeou Isaque naquela terra e, no mesmo ano, recolheu cento por um, porque o SENHOR o abençoava. 13 Enriqueceu-se o homem, prosperou, ficou riquíssimo; 14 possuía ovelhas e bois e grande número de servos, de maneira que os filisteus lhe tinham inveja. 15 E, por isso, lhe entulharam todos os poços que os servos de seu pai haviam cavado, nos dias de Abraão, enchendo-os de terra. 16 Disse Abimeleque a Isaque: Aparta-te de nós, porque já és muito mais poderoso do que nós. 17 Então, Isaque saiu dali e se acampou no vale de Gerar, onde habitou. 18 E tornou Isaque a abrir os poços que se cavaram nos dias de Abraão, seu pai (porque os filisteus os haviam entulhado depois da morte de Abraão), e lhes deu os mesmos nomes que já seu pai lhes havia posto. 19 Cavaram os servos de Isaque no vale e acharam um poço de água nascente. 20 Mas os pastores de Gerar contenderam com os pastores de Isaque, dizendo: Esta água é nossa. Por isso, chamou o poço de Eseque, porque contenderam com ele. 21 Então, cavaram outro poço e também por causa desse contenderam. Por isso, recebeu o nome de Sitna. 22 Partindo dali, cavou ainda outro poço; e, como por esse não contenderam, chamou-lhe Reobote e disse: Porque agora nos deu lugar o SENHOR, e prosperaremos na terra. 23 Dali subiu para Berseba. 24 Na mesma noite, lhe apareceu o SENHOR e disse: Eu sou o Deus de Abraão, teu pai. Não temas, porque eu sou contigo; abençoar-te-ei e multiplicarei a tua descendência por amor de Abraão, meu servo. 25 Então, levantou ali um altar e, tendo invocado o nome do SENHOR, armou a sua tenda; e os servos de Isaque abriram ali um poço. 26 De Gerar foram ter com ele Abimeleque e seu amigo Ausate e Ficol, comandante do seu exército. 27 Disse-lhes Isaque: Por que viestes a mim, pois me odiais e me expulsastes do vosso meio? 28 Eles responderam: Vimos claramente que o SENHOR é contigo; então, dissemos: Haja agora juramento entre nós e ti, e façamos aliança contigo. 29 Jura que nos não farás mal, como também não te havemos tocado, e como te fizemos somente o bem, e te deixamos ir em paz. Tu és agora o abençoado do SENHOR. 30 Então, Isaque lhes deu um banquete, e comeram e beberam. 31 Levantando-se de madrugada, juraram de parte a parte; Isaque os despediu, e eles se foram em paz. 32 Nesse mesmo dia, vieram os servos de Isaque e, dando-lhe notícia do poço que tinham cavado, lhe disseram: Achamos água. 33 Ao poço, chamou-lhe Seba; por isso, Berseba é o nome daquela cidade até ao dia de hoje. 34 Tendo Esaú quarenta anos de idade, tomou por esposa a Judite, filha de Beeri, heteu, e a Basemate, filha de Elom, heteu. 35 Ambas se tornaram amargura de espírito para Isaque e para Rebeca. ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  26 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar. 2 And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: 3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father; 4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; 5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws. 6 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar: 7 And the men of the place asked him of his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah; because she was fair to look upon. 8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife. 9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is thy wife; and how saidst thou, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her. 10 And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done unto us? one of the people might lightly have lien with thy wife, and thou shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us. 11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death. 12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him. 13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: 14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him. 15 For all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth. 16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we. 17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there. 18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them. 19 And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water. 20 And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac's herdmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him. 21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah. 22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the Lord hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land. 23 And he went up from thence to Beersheba. 24 And the Lord appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake. 25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac's servants digged a well. 26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army. 27 And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come ye to me, seeing ye hate me, and have sent me away from you? 28 And they said, We saw certainly that the Lord was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, even betwixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee; 29 That thou wilt do us no hurt, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done unto thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou art now the blessed of the Lord. 30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink. 31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and sware one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace. 32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac's servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and said unto him, We have found water. 33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city is Beersheba unto this day. 34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite: 35 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah. ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  Mateus 25 1 Então, o reino dos céus será semelhante a dez virgens que, tomando as suas lâmpadas, saíram a encontrar-se com o noivo. 2 Cinco dentre elas eram néscias, e cinco, prudentes. 3 As néscias, ao tomarem as suas lâmpadas, não levaram azeite consigo; 4 no entanto, as prudentes, além das lâmpadas, levaram azeite nas vasilhas. 5 E, tardando o noivo, foram todas tomadas de sono e adormeceram. 6 Mas, à meia-noite, ouviu-se um grito: Eis o noivo! Saí ao seu encontro! 7 Então, se levantaram todas aquelas virgens e prepararam as suas lâmpadas. 8 E as néscias disseram às prudentes: Dai-nos do vosso azeite, porque as nossas lâmpadas estão-se apagando. 9 Mas as prudentes responderam: Não, para que não nos falte a nós e a vós outras! Ide, antes, aos que o vendem e comprai-o. 10 E, saindo elas para comprar, chegou o noivo, e as que estavam apercebidas entraram com ele para as bodas; e fechou-se a porta. 11 Mais tarde, chegaram as virgens néscias, clamando: Senhor, senhor, abre-nos a porta! 12 Mas ele respondeu: Em verdade vos digo que não vos conheço. 13 Vigiai, pois, porque não sabeis o dia nem a hora. 14 Pois será como um homem que, ausentando-se do país, chamou os seus servos e lhes confiou os seus bens. 15 A um deu cinco talentos, a outro, dois e a outro, um, a cada um segundo a sua própria capacidade; e, então, partiu. 16 O que recebera cinco talentos saiu imediatamente a negociar com eles e ganhou outros cinco. 17 Do mesmo modo, o que recebera dois ganhou outros dois. 18 Mas o que recebera um, saindo, abriu uma cova e escondeu o dinheiro do seu senhor. 19 Depois de muito tempo, voltou o senhor daqueles servos e ajustou contas com eles. 20 Então, aproximando-se o que recebera cinco talentos, entregou outros cinco, dizendo: Senhor, confiaste-me cinco talentos; eis aqui outros cinco talentos que ganhei. 21 Disse-lhe o senhor: Muito bem, servo bom e fiel; foste fiel no pouco, sobre o muito te colocarei; entra no gozo do teu senhor. 22 E, aproximando-se também o que recebera dois talentos, disse: Senhor, dois talentos me confiaste; aqui tens outros dois que ganhei. 23 Disse-lhe o senhor: Muito bem, servo bom e fiel; foste fiel no pouco, sobre o muito te colocarei; entra no gozo do teu senhor. 24 Chegando, por fim, o que recebera um talento, disse: Senhor, sabendo que és homem severo, que ceifas onde não semeaste e ajuntas onde não espalhaste, 25 receoso, escondi na terra o teu talento; aqui tens o que é teu. 26 Respondeu-lhe, porém, o senhor: Servo mau e negligente, sabias que ceifo onde não semeei e ajunto onde não espalhei? 27 Cumpria, portanto, que entregasses o meu dinheiro aos banqueiros, e eu, ao voltar, receberia com juros o que é meu. 28 Tirai-lhe, pois, o talento e dai-o ao que tem dez. 29 Porque a todo o que tem se lhe dará, e terá em abundância; mas ao que não tem, até o que tem lhe será tirado. 30 E o servo inútil, lançai-o para fora, nas trevas. Ali haverá choro e ranger de dentes. 31 Quando vier o Filho do Homem na sua majestade e todos os anjos com ele, então, se assentará no trono da sua glória; 32 e todas as nações serão reunidas em sua presença, e ele separará uns dos outros, como o pastor separa dos cabritos as ovelhas; 33 e porá as ovelhas à sua direita, mas os cabritos, à esquerda; 34 então, dirá o Rei aos que estiverem à sua direita: Vinde, benditos de meu Pai! Entrai na posse do reino que vos está preparado desde a fundação do mundo. 35 Porque tive fome, e me destes de comer; tive sede, e me destes de beber; era forasteiro, e me hospedastes; 36 estava nu, e me vestistes; enfermo, e me visitastes; preso, e fostes ver-me. 37 Então, perguntarão os justos: Senhor, quando foi que te vimos com fome e te demos de comer? Ou com sede e te demos de beber? 38 E quando te vimos forasteiro e te hospedamos? Ou nu e te vestimos? 39 E quando te vimos enfermo ou preso e te fomos visitar? 40 O Rei, respondendo, lhes dirá: Em verdade vos afirmo que, sempre que o fizestes a um destes meus pequeninos irmãos, a mim o fizestes. 41 Então, o Rei dirá também aos que estiverem à sua esquerda: Apartai-vos de mim, malditos, para o fogo eterno, preparado para o diabo e seus anjos. 42 Porque tive fome, e não me destes de comer; tive sede, e não me destes de beber; 43 sendo forasteiro, não me hospedastes; estando nu, não me vestistes; achando-me enfermo e preso, não fostes ver-me. 44 E eles lhe perguntarão: Senhor, quando foi que te vimos com fome, com sede, forasteiro, nu, enfermo ou preso e não te assistimos? 45 Então, lhes responderá: Em verdade vos digo que, sempre que o deixastes de fazer a um destes mais pequeninos, a mim o deixastes de fazer. 46 E irão estes para o castigo eterno, porém os justos, para a vida eterna. ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  25 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. 14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. 15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. 16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. 17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. 18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. 20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. 26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. 29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. 30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: 32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: 33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. 37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  Ester 2 1 Passadas estas coisas, e apaziguado já o furor do rei Assuero, lembrou-se de Vasti, e do que ela fizera, e do que se tinha decretado contra ela. 2 Então, disseram os jovens do rei, que lhe serviam: Tragam-se moças para o rei, virgens de boa aparência e formosura. 3 Ponha o rei comissários em todas as províncias do seu reino, que reúnam todas as moças virgens, de boa aparência e formosura, na cidadela de Susã, na casa das mulheres, sob as vistas de Hegai, eunuco do rei, guarda das mulheres, e dêem-se-lhes os seus ungüentos. 4 A moça que cair no agrado do rei, essa reine em lugar de Vasti. Com isto concordou o rei, e assim se fez. 5 Ora, na cidadela de Susã havia certo homem judeu, benjamita, chamado Mordecai, filho de Jair, filho de Simei, filho de Quis, 6 que fora transportado de Jerusalém com os exilados que foram deportados com Jeconias, rei de Judá, a quem Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, havia transportado. 7 Ele criara a Hadassa, que é Ester, filha de seu tio, a qual não tinha pai nem mãe; e era jovem bela, de boa aparência e formosura. Tendo-lhe morrido o pai e a mãe, Mordecai a tomara por filha. 8 Em se divulgando, pois, o mandado do rei e a sua lei, ao serem ajuntadas muitas moças na cidadela de Susã, sob as vistas de Hegai, levaram também Ester à casa do rei, sob os cuidados de Hegai, guarda das mulheres. 9 A moça lhe pareceu formosa e alcançou favor perante ele; pelo que se apressou em dar-lhe os ungüentos e os devidos alimentos, como também sete jovens escolhidas da casa do rei; e a fez passar com as suas jovens para os melhores aposentos da casa das mulheres. 10 Ester não havia declarado o seu povo nem a sua linhagem, pois Mordecai lhe ordenara que o não declarasse. 11 Passeava Mordecai todos os dias diante do átrio da casa das mulheres, para se informar de como passava Ester e do que lhe sucederia. 12 Em chegando o prazo de cada moça vir ao rei Assuero, depois de tratada segundo as prescrições para as mulheres, por doze meses (porque assim se cumpriam os dias de seu embelezamento, seis meses com óleo de mirra e seis meses com especiarias e com os perfumes e ungüentos em uso entre as mulheres), 13 então, é que vinha a jovem ao rei; a ela se dava o que desejasse para levar consigo da casa das mulheres para a casa do rei. 14 À tarde, entrava e, pela manhã, tornava à segunda casa das mulheres, sob as vistas de Saasgaz, eunuco do rei, guarda das concubinas; não tornava mais ao rei, salvo se o rei a desejasse, e ela fosse chamada pelo nome. 15 Ester, filha de Abiail, tio de Mordecai, que a tomara por filha, quando lhe chegou a vez de ir ao rei, nada pediu além do que disse Hegai, eunuco do rei, guarda das mulheres. E Ester alcançou favor de todos quantos a viam. 16 Assim, foi levada Ester ao rei Assuero, à casa real, no décimo mês, que é o mês de tebete, no sétimo ano do seu reinado. 17 O rei amou a Ester mais do que a todas as mulheres, e ela alcançou perante ele favor e benevolência mais do que todas as virgens; o rei pôs-lhe na cabeça a coroa real e a fez rainha em lugar de Vasti. 18 Então, o rei deu um grande banquete a todos os seus príncipes e aos seus servos; era o banquete de Ester; concedeu alívio às províncias e fez presentes segundo a generosidade real. 19 Quando, pela segunda vez, se reuniram as virgens, Mordecai estava assentado à porta do rei. 20 Ester não havia declarado ainda a sua linhagem e o seu povo, como Mordecai lhe ordenara; porque Ester cumpria o mandado de Mordecai como quando a criava. 21 Naqueles dias, estando Mordecai sentado à porta do rei, dois eunucos do rei, dos guardas da porta, Bigtã e Teres, sobremodo se indignaram e tramaram atentar contra o rei Assuero. 22 Veio isso ao conhecimento de Mordecai, que o revelou à rainha Ester, e Ester o disse ao rei, em nome de Mordecai. 23 Investigou-se o caso, e era fato; e ambos foram pendurados numa forca. Isso foi escrito no Livro das Crônicas, perante o rei. ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦  2 After these things, when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her. 2 Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, Let there be fair young virgins sought for the king: 3 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: 4 And let the maiden which pleaseth the king be queen instead of Vashti. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so. 5 Now in Shushan the palace there was a certain Jew, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite; 6 Who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captivity which had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away. 7 And he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter. 8 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. 9 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. 10 Esther had not shewed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not shew it. 11 And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women's house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her. 12 Now when every maid's turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women;) 13 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. 14 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. 15 Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her. 16 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. 17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti. 18 Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king. 19 And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai sat in the king's gate. 20 Esther had not yet shewed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did the commandment of Mordecai, like as when she was brought up with him. 21 In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the door, were wroth, and sought to lay hands on the king Ahasuerus. 22 And the thing was known to Mordecai, who told it unto Esther the queen; and Esther certified the king thereof in Mordecai's name. 23 And when inquisition was made of the matter, it was found out; therefore they were both hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king. ..... ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦
