[思高本] （补录丙：摩尔德开的哀祷）1 摩尔德开想起了上主所作的一切，就向上主哀求说：2 “上主，上主！全能的君王！万事都属你权下，若你愿意拯救以色列，谁也不能反抗。3 你造了天地，以及天下的千奇万妙之物；你是万有的主宰。上主，谁能抵抗你？4 上主！你洞察万事，知道我不叩拜蛮横的哈曼，并不是出于傲慢、自大，或任何贪求虚荣的心；反之，若为了以色列的安全，需要跪吻他的脚掌，我也在所不辞。5 但是，我这样做，是不愿将人的光荣，置诸天主的光荣以上；并且，我的上主，除了你以外，我决不叩拜任何人。我如此做，不是出于傲僈。6 上主，天主，天地的君王，亚巴郎的天主！现今求你怜悯你的民族！因为人决意要消灭我们，要摧残自始就属于你的产业。7 求你不要轻视你从埃及为你自己赎出的产业！8 愿你俯听我的祈求，怜悯你的家业，化哀伤为喜庆，使我们能生存在世界上，歌颂你的圣名。 上主！求你不要让那些赞美你的口舌丧亡！”9 此时，全以色列都竭力呼救，因为他们已面临死亡。（艾斯德尔的哀祷题）10 艾斯德尔王后，自觉也有死的威胁，于是投奔到上主前；脱去华服，穿上悲伤哀悼的衣裳，头上撒上灰尘和粪土，以代替贵重的香膏，严厉刻苦肉身，头发散垂，毫无装饰，向上主以色列的天主祈祷说：11 “我的上主！只有你是我们的君王，求你援助我这孤苦无靠的人！除你以外，我没有别的救援，因为危险已迫于眉睫。12 我自幼在我父家，就听说是你，上主，从各民族中拣选了以色列；又从各民族的祖先中拣选了我们的祖先，作你永远的产业：凡你所预许的，无不一一给他们实践。13 但是现今我们犯罪得罪了你，你将我们交在敌人的手中，因为我们敬奉了他们的神祇（qí）；上主，你如此作，是公义的。14 我们备受奴役惨痛的苦楚，他们尚以为不足，如今还向他们的神祇宣誓：要废除你发出的号令，消灭你的家业，杜绝颂扬你的口舌，熄灭你圣殿的光辉，拆毁你的祭坛，15 放纵异教人的口舌，去称扬虚伪的偶像，永远崇拜一个有血肉的君王。16 上主！不要将你的权杖，交与那些根本是虚无的人物；不要使他们嘲笑我们的没落，反使他们的阴谋伤害自己，作为那谋害我们者的鉴戒。17 上主！求你记念我们，在这灾难之时，求你显现！神明的君王，全能的主宰，求增我勇气！18 赐我在猛狮前，口能说动听的话；求你转变他的心意，去憎恨我们的仇人，使那人和与他同谋的人，同归于尽。19 惟愿你亲手拯救我们！上主！求你授助我这孤苦无告的人，除你以外，我没有别的依靠。20 你洞悉一切，知我憎恨所有不法者的光荣，厌恶未受割损者和一切异民的床褥；21 你知道我是迫不得已，因为我憎恶上朝时戴在我头上的那尊贵的徽号：憎厌它像沾了不洁的亵布；在我独居时，我决不佩戴。22 况且，你的婢女没有吃过哈曼席上的食物，没有尝过君王的盛宴，也没有饮过奠祭的酒。23 从我被带到这里的那一天起，直到现在，上主，亚巴郎的天主！除你以外，你的婢女没有别的喜乐。24 威能超众的天主，求你俯听失望者的呼声，拯救我们脱离恶人的毒手，并救我脱离恐怖！”（补录丁：艾斯德尔越规朝见）1第三天，艾斯德尔祈祷完毕，脱去苦麻服，穿上艳丽服装，2刻意装饰打扮，又呼求了鉴临万物，拯救众生的天主，就带了两个婢女：一个扶着她那弱不禁风的身体；另一个尾随于后，扯起她的长裙。3她体态轻盈，容貌娇艳，令人喜爱；但她此时却心惊胆战。4经过几道宫门，来到君王前；此时君王正高坐龙椅，身着蟒袍玉带，金璧辉煌，使人一见生畏。5君王抬起头来，见王后前来，龙颜大变，怒目而视；王后登时吓的昏迷，面无人色，倒在随侍她的婢女身上。6但天主忽然转变了君王的心，使他的态度转为和颜悦色，急忙跑下龙椅，双手把她抱住，及至王后苏醒，王便以温和的言语抚慰她说：7艾斯德尔，你有什么事？我是你哥哥，尽管放心好了！你不至于死，王法只是限于属下。 请上前来！”8于是拿起金杖，放在她颈上，且吻她说：“向我说吧！”9她答说：“我主，我见了你，好像见了天主的使者；一见你的威仪，我就心神慌乱了。10我主，你实令人惊奇，仪容又和蔼可亲。”11她正在说话时，又晕倒了。君王因此十分担心，众臣仆便都设法使她苏醒过来。（请求君王与哈曼赴宴）第三天，艾斯德尔身穿王后的华服，站在王宫的内院，面向宫殿；那时君王正坐在宫殿的宝座上，面向宫门。
