2:8 So it came to pass, when the king's commandment and his decree were heard, and when many maidens were assembled at Shushan the palace, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also to the king's house, to the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women.
2:8 Sa gayo'y nangyari nang mabalitaan ang utos ng hari at ang kaniyang pasiya, at nang napipisan ang maraming dalaga sa Susan na bahay-hari, sa pamamahala ni Hegai, na si Esther ay dinala sa bahay ng hari, sa pamamahala ni Hegai, na tagapagingat sa mga babae.
