Esther 2:16-18
English Standard Version Anglicised
16 And when Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus, into his royal palace, in the tenth month, which is the month of Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign, 17 the king loved Esther more than all the women, and she won grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins, so he set (A)the royal crown[a] on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti. 18 Then the king (B)gave a great feast for all his officials and servants; it was Esther's feast. He also granted a remission of taxes to the provinces and gave gifts with royal generosity.
