- 王带着哈曼来赴王后以斯帖的筵席。
- 这第二次在酒席筵前，王又问以斯帖说，王后以斯帖阿，你要什么，我必赐给你。你求什么，就是国的一半也必为你成就。
- 王后以斯帖回答说，我若在王眼前蒙恩，王若以为美，我所愿的，是愿王将我的性命赐给我。我所求的，是求王将我的本族赐给我。
- 因我和我的本族被卖了，要剪除杀戮灭绝我们。我们若被卖为奴为婢，我也闭口不言。但王的损失，敌人万不能补足。
- 亚哈随鲁王问王后以斯帖说，擅敢起意如此行的是谁。这人在哪里呢。

- Now the king and Haman came to drink wine with Esther the queen.
- And the king said to Esther on the second day also as they drank their wine at the banquet, "What is your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you And what is your request? Even to half of the kingdom it shall be done."
- Then Queen Esther replied, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me as my petition, and my people as my request;
- for we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be killed and to be annihilated. Now if we had only been sold as slaves, men and women, I would have remained silent, for the trouble would not be commensurate with the annoyance to the king."
- Then King Ahasuerus asked Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is he, who would presume to do thus?"
