Esther 5:2-4
New King James Version
2 So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that (A)she found favor in his sight, and (B)the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter.
3 And the king said to her, “What do you wish, Queen Esther? What is your request? (C)It shall be given to you—up to half the kingdom!”
4 So Esther answered, “If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come today to the banquet that I have prepared for him.”
