Alkitab Terjemahan Lama
maka titah baginda kepada Ester, pada hari yang keduapun, sementara baginda santap air anggur: Apa gerangan permintaan adinda, hai permaisuri Ester! niscaya ia itu akan diberikan kelak; dan apa gerangan kehendak adinda? jikalau separuh kerajaan sekalipun, niscaya ia itu akan dikaruniakan juga.

Contextual Overview

1 And the king and Haman came to bancket with the queene Esther. 2 And the king saide againe vnto Esther on the seconde day at the bancket of wine: What is thy petition queene Esther, that it may be geuen thee? And what requirest thou? if it be euen to the halfe of the empire, it shalbe done. 3 And Esther the queene aunswered, and saide: If I haue found grace in thy sight O king, and if it please the king, then graunt me my lyfe at my desire, and my people for my petitions sake. 4 For we are solde I and my people to be destroyed, to be slaine, and to perishe: And would God that we were solde to be bondmen and bondwomen, then would I holde my tongue: although the enemie coulde not recompence the kinges losse. 5 The king Ahasuerus aunswered and saide vnto queene Esther: Who is he? And where is he, that dare presume in his minde to do after that maner? 6 And Esther saide: the enemie and aduersarie is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was exceedingly afrayde before the king and the queene.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king said again to Esther on the second day, at the banquet of wine,.... This was the third time he put the following question to her, being very desirous of knowing what she had to ask of him; and it was of God that this was kept upon his mind, and he was moved to solicit her petition, or otherwise it would not have been so easy for her to have introduced it:

what is thy petition, Queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it shall be performed, even to the half of my kingdom; see Esther 5:3.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Esther 7:2. At the banquet of winePostquam vino incaluerat, after he had been heated with wine, says the Vulgate. In such a state the king was more likely to come into the measures of the queen.
