(2) εἶπεν δὲ ὁ βασιλεὺς Εσθηρ τῇ δευτέρᾳ ἡµέρᾳ ἐν τῷ πότῳ Τί ἐστιν, Εσθηρ βασίλισσα, καὶ τί τὸ αἴτηµά σου καὶ τί τὸ ἀξίωµά σου; καὶ ἔστω σοι ἕως τοῦ ἡµίσους τῆς βασιλείας µου.

(3) καὶ ἀποκριθεῖσα εἶπεν Εἰ εὗρον χάριν ἐνώπιον τοῦ βασιλέως, δοθήτω ἡ ψυχή µου τῷ αἰτήµατί µου καὶ ὁ λαός µου τῷ ἀξιώµατί µου·

(4) ἐπράθηµεν γὰρ ἐγώ τε καὶ ὁ λαός µου εἰς ἀπώλειαν καὶ διαρπαγὴν καὶ δουλείαν, ἡµεῖς καὶ τὰ τέκνα ἡµῶν εἰς παῖδας καὶ παιδίσκας, καὶ παρήκουσα· οὐ γὰρ ἄξιος ὁ διάβολος τῆς αὐλῆς τοῦ βασιλέως.

Then Aman was troubled before the king and the queen.	(6) εἶπεν δὲ Εσθηρ Ἄνθρωπος ἐχθρὸς Αµαν ὁ πονηρὸς οὗτος. Αµαν δὲ ἐταράχθη ἀπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τῆς βασιλίσσης.

And the king said, Wilt thou even force my wife in my house? And when Aman heard it, he changed countenance.

And the king said, Let him be hanged thereon.
