Esther 2:9 in Context — Esther 2
7 E ele tinha criado a Hadassa, que é Ester, filha de seu tio, porque não tinha pai nem mãe; e ela tinha bela forma, e era linda de aparência; e como seu pai e sua mãe tinham morrido, Mardoqueu a havia tomado como sua filha.
8 Sucedeu pois, que quando se divulgou o mandamento do rei e seu lei, e sendo reunidas muitas moças na fortaleza de Susã, ao cuidado de Hegai, também levaram Ester para casa do rei, ao cuidado de Hegai, vigilante das mulheres.
9 E a moça foi do agrado de seus olhos, e alcançou favor diante dele; por isso ele se apressou em [lhe dar] seus enfeites e suas porções de alimento, dando-lhe também sete moças escolhidas da casa do rei; e ele a passou com suas moças ao melhor [lugar] da casa das mulheres.
10 Ester, porém, não declarou seu povo nem sua parentela; porque Mardoqueu tinha lhe mandado que não declarasse.
11 E todo dia Mardoqueu passeava diante do pátio da casa das mulheres, para saber como Ester estava, e que estava acontecendo com ela.
