Esther said, “If it pleases the king, may the king and Haman come this day to the banquet that I have prepared for him.”

Then the king said, “(A)Bring Haman quickly so that we may do [a]as Esther desires.” So the king and Haman came to the banquet which Esther had prepared. [b]As they drank their wine at the banquet, (B)the king said to Esther, “(C)What is your request, for it shall be granted to you. And what is your wish? Up to half of the kingdom it shall be done.”
