Esther 8:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² The king had taken back his special ring from Haman. Now he took it off his own finger and he gave it to Mordecai. And Esther gave Mordecai authority over all the things that had belonged to Haman.

³ Then Esther went again to speak to the king. She threw herself down at his feet and she wept. She wanted him to stop Haman's evil idea to kill all the Jews. ⁴ The king held out his gold sceptre towards Esther. So she stood up to speak to the king.
