Esther 1:12 But when the attendants delivered the king’s command, Queen Vashti refused to come. Then the king became furious and burned with anger.

9. 19 Jikalau baik pada pemandangan raja, hendaklah dikeluarkan suatu titah kerajaan dari hadapan baginda dan dituliskan di dalam undang-undang Persia dan Media, sehingga tidak dapat dicabut kembali, bahwa Wasti dilarang menghadap raja Ahasyweros, Esther 1:19 “Therefore, if it pleases the king, let him issue a royal decree and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed, that Vashti is never again to enter the presence of King Xerxes.

12. Ester 2:2 Maka sembah para biduanda raja yang bertugas pada baginda: "Hendaklah orang mencari bagi raja gadis-gadis, yaitu anak-anak dara yang elok rupanya; Esther 2:2 Then the king’s personal attendants proposed, “Let a search be made for beautiful young virgins for the king.

13. 3 hendaklah raja menempatkan kuasa-kuasa di segenap daerah kerajaannya, supaya mereka mengumpulkan semua gadis, anak-anak dara yang elok rupanya, di dalam benteng Susan, 3 Let the king appoint commissioners in every province of his realm to bring all these beautiful girls into the harem at the citadel of Susa.

14. di balai perempuan, di bawah pengawasan Hegai, sida-sida raja, penjaga para perempuan; hendaklah diberikan wangi-wangian kepada mereka. Let them be placed under the care of Hegai, the king’s eunuch, who is in charge of the women; and let beauty treatments be given to them.

15. 4 Dan gadis yang terbaik pada pemandangan raja, baiklah dia menjadi ratu ganti Wasti." Hal itu dipandang baik oleh raja, dan dilakukanlah demikian. 4 Then let the girl who pleases the king be queen instead of Vashti.” This advice appealed to the king, and he followed it.

16. 8Setelah titah dan undang-undang raja tersiar dan banyak gadis dikumpulkan di dalam benteng Susan, di bawah pengawasan Hegai, 8 When the king’s order and edict had been proclaimed, many girls were brought to the citadel of Susa and put under the care of Hegai.

20. dan juga tujuh orang dayang-dayang yang terpilih dari isi istana raja, kemudian memindahkan dia dengan dayang-dayangnya ke bagian yang terbaik di dalam balai perempuan. He assigned to her seven maids selected from the king’s palace and moved her and her maids into the best place in the harem.

21. 15 Ketika Ester--anak Abihail, yakni saudara ayah Mordekhai yang mengangkat Ester sebagai anak--mendapat giliran untuk masuk menghadap raja, 15 When the turn came for Esther (the girl Mordecai had adopted, the daughter of his uncle Abihail) to go to the king,

22. maka ia tidak menghendaki sesuatu apapun selain dari pada yang dianjurkan oleh Hegai, sida-sida raja, penjaga para perempuan. she asked for nothing other than what Hegai, the king’s eunuch who was in charge of the harem, suggested.

25. 17 Maka Ester dikasihi oleh baginda lebih dari pada semua perempuan lain, dan ia beroleh sayang dan kasih baginda lebih dari pada semua anak dara lain, 17 Now the king was attracted to Esther more than to any of the other women, and she won his favor and approval more than any of the other virgins.
