Esther 2:11-13

New Life Version

¹¹ And every day Mordecai walked in front of the open space of the house of the king’s women to learn how Esther was and how she was getting along.

¹² The time for each young lady came to go in to King Ahasuerus after the end of her twelve months of being under the rules for the women. The days of making themselves beautiful were finished after using oil from spices for six months, and perfumes and oils for making themselves beautiful for another six months. ¹³ When the young woman went in to the king, whatever she wanted was given to her to take from the house of the king’s women to the king’s special house.
