[a]As they drank their wine at the banquet, (A)the king said to Esther, “(B)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.” So Esther replied, “My request and my wish is: (C)if I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my request and do [b]what I wish, may the king and Haman come to (D)the banquet which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do [c]as the king says.”
