1 That same day King Xerxes (I will be silent and poor) awarded Queen Esther (star) the estate of Haman (magnificent), the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai (little man) entered the king’s presence because Esther had revealed his relation to her. 2 The king removed the signet ring he had recovered from Haman (magnificent) and presented it to Mordecai (little man). And Esther (star) appointed Mordecai over the estate of Haman. 3 And once again, Esther (star) addressed the king. She fell at his feet weeping and begged him to revoke the evil scheme of Haman (magnificent) the Agagite (I will overtop), which he had devised against the Jews. 4 The king extended the gold scepter toward Esther (star), and she arose and stood before the king.
