# If it pleases the king ... in his eyes ... before the king ... in his eyes
Esther is speaking to the king in third person to show him respect. Alternate translation: "If it pleases you, the king ... in your eyes ... before you, the king ... in your eyes" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-123person]])
# If it pleases the king
"If what I ask for pleases the king"
# if I have found favor in his eyes
Here "found favor" is an idiom that means be approved of or that he is pleased with her. Here "eyes" are a metonym for sight, and sight is a metaphor representing his evaluation. Alternate translation: "if he is pleased with me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"If it pleases you, the king ... in your eyes ... before you, the king ... in your eyes"
# if the thing seems proper before the king
"Before the king" here is a metaphor representing his evaluation. Alternate translation: "if the king thinks that what I ask for is proper" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"if the king thinks that what I ask for is proper"
# I am pleasing in his eyes
Here "his eyes" is a metonym for sight, and sight is a metaphor representing his evaluation. Alternate translation: "he is pleased with me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"he is pleased with me"
