Bassanio might want to reimburse his companion, yet so far he has been not able to do as such. In any case, he currently feels that he may have discovered a way — yet he will again require a credit from Antonio. In Belmont, Bassanio tells Antonio, there lives a wonderful and youthful and well off beneficiary. Bassanio feels sure that he can win her deliver marriage, however he can't go pursuing "hands-hanging." If he is to establish a decent connection, he needs to show up at any rate too off as her other well off suitors. Antonio tells his young companion that he would happily loan him whatever measure of cash he needs, yet right now he himself is shy of money. The entirety of his cash is tied up in his vendor ships, which are as yet adrift. Nonetheless, Antonio won't frustrate Bassanio. He is aware of a moneylender who will presumably loan him the vital sum, and Bassanio can utilize Antonio's acceptable name as security for the advance.

At Belmont, Portia addresses Nerissa, her compatriot, disclosing to her how worn out she is of the steady stream of suitors, and how she wishes to be liberated from the unreasonable commitment of her dad's will: Portia can't pick her own better half; she can wed just the man who picks the right one of three coffins — one gold, one silver, and one lead; one contains her picture and that one is the fortunate coffin. Up until now, none of her suitors has chosen to hazard picking one of the coffins, which is totally supportive of the great, on the grounds that Portia has no preference for any of them. In any case, when Nerissa makes reference to the name of Bassanio, a potential suitor, Portia's state of mind lights up. He was previously a guest at Belmont, and Portia was dazzled with him.

In the interim in Venice, Shylock, a rich Jewish moneylender who harbors a mystery contempt for Antonio, has consented to loan Bassanio 3,000 ducats for a quarter of a year, on Antonio's security. Previous his standard high loan cost, Shylock requests rather that if the day for installment falls due and the cash isn't returned, he may cut off one pound of substance from Antonio's body. Antonio concurs in light of the fact that the entirety of his boats are expected back in Venice an entire month before the bond falls due.

A sentimental subplot creates when Lorenzo, a dear companion of Antonio and Bassanio, begins to look all starry eyed at Shylock's little girl, Jessica. He figures out how to run off with her by masking her as a kid, and she figures out how to take with her a goodly measure of her dad's ducats. Obviously, this irritates Shylock, and he promises retribution. Presently, Bassanio and Gratiano leave for Belmont, where the "reasonable Portia" has quite recently sent away the Prince of Morocco and the Prince of Arragon, two increasingly disillusioned, ineffective suitors. When Bassanio solicits to pick one from the coffins, Portia falls quickly infatuated with him, and she beseeches him to hold up a couple of days before picking one of the coffins. He has gone gaga for Portia and demands taking his risks. He dismisses the gold one, at that point the silver one; he picks, at last, the lead coffin, and on opening it, he finds a picture of Portia. Both he and Portia are excited, and they make arrangements to be hitched on the double, alongside Nerissa and Gratiano, who have additionally begun to look all starry eyed at. Satisfaction reigns in Belmont until Bassanio is brought a letter from Antonio saying goodbye to him since his boats have been lost adrift and since it is incomprehensible that he will live after Shylock gathers his pound of substance. Appalled, Bassanio leaves right away for Venice with cash which Portia offers him to pay the bond.

In Venice, Shylock is never again inspired by the simple installment of the cash due him. He needs vengeance. A Christian took his little girl (and she took his cash), and nothing will fulfill Shylock with the exception of the lawful satisfaction of the bond. In the official courtroom, managed by the Duke of Venice, Shylock faces his foe, Antonio. Antonio is encompassed by his companions and is discreetly surrendered to death. On all sides, Shylock is encompassed by adversaries. Bassanio begs Shylockto acknowledge twofold the cash due him, however Shylock can't.

Now, Portia, masked as a legal counselor, and Nerissa, dressed as her law assistant, enter the court and tell the Duke that they have been sent from Padua by an educated lawyer, Doctor Bellario, to argue the litigant's case. Portia implores Shylock to be tolerant, yet he won't tune in. She offers the moneylender triple the aggregate owed him, once more Shylock will have none of it. She at that point gravely advises the court that Shylock is totally inside his legal rights. She at that point illuminates Shylock that he should be exceptionally cautious. He should cutoff precisely one pound of tissue, and he should not violate one drop of Antonio's wellbeing. In the event that he comes up short, the entirety of Shylock's properties and merchandise will be seized. Shylock quickly concludes that he will acknowledge the triple installment of the bond, yet Portia says no; Shylock at that point offers to take just the first 3,000 ducats, however again Portia can't, advising him that it was he himself who requested the severe translation of the law. Besides, she says, the law has another hang on him. Since he is an outsider in Venice and since he attempted to "look for the life" of a Venetian resident, all his riches can be partitioned between the resident whom he endeavored to devastate and the open treasury; what's more, Shylock's own life is in danger in view of what he endeavored to do.

The duke makes a decision to spare shylock's life, yet he gives half of shylock's cash to antonio, and he offers the relaxation of it to the state. Antonio says that he won't acknowledge the cash if Shylock will consent to turn into a Christian and if, in his will, he will consent to leave his cash to his little girl, Jessica, and her new spouse, Lorenzo. Shylock, broken and vanquished, consents to every one of these conditions and leaves the court. Excited, Antonio and his companions offer to pay the youthful legal advisor whatever they can, at the same time, strangely, the attorney wishes just a specific ring which Bassanio is wearing. Bassanio is humiliated on the grounds that his better half gave this ring to him and requested that he wear it generally. Be that as it may, the legal counselor demands and, at long last, Bassanio hesitantly parts with Portia's ring. Nerissa in like manner astutely figures out how to get from Gratiano a ring she gave him. The two women at that point hurry back to Belmont to prod their spouses about the rings.

When Bassanio and Gratiano, alongside Antonio, come back to Belmont, their spouses ask about the missing rings. Portia and Nerissa demand that the men no uncertainty parted with the rings to two other ladies. The spouses swear that it isn't valid, and it isn't until Portia and Nerissa have gotten their husbands through some long, humorously anguishing snapshots of uneasiness that they admit that they themselves were the "scholarly specialist" and the "representative" to whom the rings were given. In this manner all closures cheerfully, as Portia gives Antonio a letter illuminating him that three of his boats have shown up securely in port.
