Esther 5:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And when the King saw Esther the Queen standing in the court, she found favor in his sight: and the King [a]held out the golden scepter that was in his hand: so Esther drew near, and touched the top of the scepter.
3 Then said the King unto her, What wilt thou, Queen Esther? and what is thy request? it shall be even [b]given thee to the half of the kingdom.
4 Then said Esther, If it please the king, let the King and Haman come this day unto the banquet, that I have prepared for him.
