2. Then the king's personal servants said:Your Majesty, a search must be made to find you some beautiful young women.

3. You can select officers in every province to bring them to the place where you keep your wives in the capital city of Susa. Put your servant Hegai in charge of them since that is his job. He can see to it that they are given the proper beauty treatments.
