1 In the month of Nisan, in Artaxerxes' twentieth year as king, after some wine was brought for the king, I picked up the cup of wine and gave it to the king. I had never been sad in his presence before.

2 The king asked me, |Why do you look so sad? You aren't sick, are you? You must be troubled about something.| (I was really afraid.)
