Esther 2:5-7
New American Standard Bible
5 There was a Jew at the citadel in Susa whose name was (A)Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjaminite, 6 (B)who had been taken from Jerusalem with the exiles who had been deported with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had deported. 7 He was the guardian to Hadassah, that is (C)Esther, his uncle’s daughter, for she had no father or mother. Now the young woman was beautiful of form and [a]face, and when her father and her mother died, Mordecai took her as his own daughter.
