Esther 2:17

The king loved Esther more than (over) all other women and she received (found) grace (undeserved love; favor) and mercy (compassion, tender love) before him, more than all virgins. [Two synonyms for grace, Heb. chen followed by chesed, reinforce Esther’s radiance, which has its source in her faith in God]. He put the royal crown on her head and made her queen in Vashti’s place.
