¹² And the king said to Queen Esther, “In Susa the citadel the Jews have killed and destroyed 500 men and also the ten sons of Haman.

³ And the king said to her, “What is it, Queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given you, even ^(A)to the half of my kingdom.”

⁴ Then the king said to me, “What are you requesting?” So I prayed ^(A)to the God of heaven.
