Esther 8:2-4

New Century Version

² Then the king took off his signet ring that he had taken back from Haman, and he gave it to Mordecai. Esther put Mordecai in charge of everything Haman left when he died.

³ Once again Esther spoke to the king. She fell at the king’s feet and cried and begged him to stop the evil plan that Haman the Agagite had planned against the Jews. ⁴ The king held out the gold scepter to Esther. So Esther got up and stood in front of him.
