3 "What is it, Esther?" the king asked. "Tell me what you want, and you shall have it - even if it is half of my empire."

4 Esther replied, "Today is a special day for me. If it please my lord, I would like you and Haman to be my guests tonight at a banquet I am preparing for you."

5 The king then ordered Haman to come quickly, so that they could be Esther's guests. So the king and Haman went to Esther's banquet.
