1599 Geneva Bible
18 Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes, and his servants, which was [a]the feast of Esther, and gave rest [b]unto the provinces, and gifts, according to the [c]power of a king.
19 And when the virgins were gathered the [d]second time, then Mordecai sat in the king’s gate.
20 Esther had not yet showed her kindred nor her people, as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did after the word of Mordecai, as when she was nourished with him.
