Greek Esther 2:1-3

Common English Bible

Finding a new queen

2 Sometime later when King Artaxerxes was less angry, he no longer remembered Vashti, what she had done, or what he had decided about her. ² His servants said, “Perhaps the king could have a search made for beautiful young women who haven’t yet had sex with a man. ³ Perhaps the king could choose certain people in all the royal provinces to lead the search. They could bring all the beautiful young women together to the city of Susa, to the women’s house, under the care of the king’s eunuch in charge of the women, and supply them with bath oils and anything else they might need.
