1. On that[H1931] day[H3117] did the king[H4428] Ahasuerus[H325] give[H5414] [H853] the house[H1004] of Haman[H2001] the Jews'[H3064] enemy[H6887] unto Esther[H635] the queen.[H4436] And Mordecai[H4782] came[H935] before[H6440] the king;[H4428] for[H3588] Esther[H635] had told[H5046] what[H4100] he[H1931] was unto her.

2. And the king[H4428] took off[H5493] [H853] his ring,[H2885] which[H834] he had taken[H5674] from Haman,[H4480] [H2001] and gave[H5414] it unto Mordecai.[H4782] And Esther[H635] set[H7760] [H853] Mordecai[H4782] over[H5921] the house[H1004] of Haman.[H2001]

3. And Esther[H635] spoke[H1696] yet again[H3254] before[H6440] the king,[H4428] and fell down[H5307] at[H6440] his feet,[H7272] and besought[H2603] him with tears[H1058] to put away[H5674] [H853] the mischief[H7451] of Haman[H2001] the Agagite,[H91] and his device[H4284] that[H834] he had devised[H2803] against[H5921] the Jews.[H3064]

4. Then the king[H4428] held out[H3447] [H853] the golden[H2091] scepter[H8275] toward Esther.[H635] So Esther[H635] arose,[H6965] and stood[H5975] before[H6440] the king,[H4428]

5. And said,[H559] If[H518] it please[H2895] [H5921] the king,[H4428] and if[H518] I have found[H4672] favor[H2580] in his sight,[H6440] and the thing[H1697] seem right[H3787] before[H6440] the king,[H4428] and I[H589] be pleasing[H2895] in his eyes,[H5869] let it be written[H3789] to reverse[H7725] [H853] the letters[H5612] devised[H4284] by Haman[H2001] the son[H1121] of Hammedatha[H4099] the Agagite,[H91] which[H834] he wrote[H3789] to destroy[H6] [H853] the Jews[H3064] which[H834] are in all[H3605] the king's[H4428] provinces: [H4082]

6. For[H3588] how[H349] can I endure[H3201] to see[H7200] the evil[H7451] that[H834] shall come unto[H4672] [H853] my people?[H5971] or how[H349] can I endure[H3201] to see[H7200] the destruction[H13] of my kindred?[H4138]

7. Then the king[H4428] Ahasuerus[H325] said[H559] unto Esther[H635] the queen[H4436] and to Mordecai[H4782] the Jew,[H3064] Behold,[H2009] I have given[H5414] Esther[H635] the house[H1004] of Haman,[H2001] and him they have hanged[H8518] upon[H5921] the gallows,[H6086] because[H5921] [H834] he laid[H7971] his hand[H3027] upon the Jews.[H3064]

8. Write[H3789] ye[H859] also for[H5921] the Jews,[H3064] as it liketh[H2896] [H5869] you, in the king's[H4428] name,[H8034] and seal[H2856] it with the king's[H4428] ring:[H2885] for[H3588] the writing[H3791] which[H834] is written[H3789] in the king's[H4428] name,[H8034] and sealed[H2856] with the king's[H4428] ring,[H2885] may no[H369] man reverse.[H7725]

9. Then were the king's[H4428] scribes[H5608] called[H7121] at that[H1931] time[H6256] in the third[H7992] month,[H2320] that[H1931] is, the month[H2320] Sivan,[H5510] on the three[H7969] and twentieth[H6242] day thereof; and it was written[H3789] according to all[H3605] that[H834] Mordecai[H4782] commanded[H6680] unto[H413] the Jews,[H3064] and to[H413] the lieutenants,[H323] and the deputies[H6346] and rulers[H8269] of the provinces[H4082] which[H834] are from India[H4480] [H1912] unto[H5704] Ethiopia,[H3568] a hundred[H3967] twenty[H6242] and seven[H7651] provinces,[H4082] unto every province[H4082] [H4082] according to the writing[H3791] thereof, and unto every people[H5971] [H5971] after their language,[H3956] and to[H413] the Jews[H3064] according to their writing,[H3791] and according to their language.[H3956]

10. And he wrote[H3789] in the king[H4428] Ahasuerus'[H325] name,[H8034] and sealed[H2856] it with the king's[H4428] ring,[H2885] and sent[H7971] letters[H5612] by[H3027] posts[H7323] on horseback,[H5483] and riders[H7392] on mules,[H7409] camels,[H327] and young[H1121] dromedaries: [H7424]

11. Wherein[H834] the king[H4428] granted[H5414] the Jews[H3064] which[H834] were in every[H3605] city[H5892] [H5892] to gather themselves together,[H6950] and to stand[H5975] for[H5921] their life,[H5315] to destroy,[H8045] to slay,[H2026] and to cause to perish,[H6] [H853] all[H3605] the power[H2428] of the people[H5971] and province[H4082] that would assault[H6696] them, both little ones[H2945] and women,[H802] and to take the spoil[H7998] of them for a prey,[H962]

12. Upon one[H259] day[H3117] in all[H3605] the provinces[H4082] of king[H4428] Ahasuerus,[H325] namely, upon the thirteenth[H7969] [H6240] day of the twelfth[H8147] [H6240] month,[H2320] which[H1931] is the month[H2320] Adar.[H143]

13. The copy[H6572] of the writing[H3791] for a commandment[H1881] to be given[H5414] in every[H3605] province[H4082] [H4082] was published[H1540] unto all[H3605] people,[H5971] and that the Jews[H3064] should be[H1961] ready[H6264] against that[H2088] day[H3117] to avenge themselves[H5358] on their enemies.[H4480] [H341]

14. So the posts[H7323] that rode upon[H7392] mules[H7409] and camels[H327] went out,[H3318] being hastened[H926] and pressed on[H1765] by the king's[H4428] commandment.[H1697] And the decree[H1881] was given[H5414] at Shushan[H7800] the palace.[H1002]

15. And Mordecai[H4782] went out[H3318] from the presence[H4480] [H6440] of the king[H4428] in royal[H4438] apparel[H3830] of blue[H8504] and white,[H2353] and with a great[H1419] crown[H5850] of gold,[H2091] and with a garment[H8509] of fine linen[H948] and purple:[H713] and the city[H5892] of Shushan[H7800] rejoiced[H6670] and was glad.[H8055]

16. The Jews[H3064] had[H1961] light,[H219] and gladness,[H8057] and joy,[H8342] and honor.[H3366]

17. And in every[H3605] province,[H4082] [H4082] and in every[H3605] city,[H5892] [H5892] whithersoever[H4725] [H834] the king's[H4428] commandment[H1697] and his decree[H1881] came,[H5060] the Jews[H3064] had joy[H8057] and gladness,[H8342] a feast[H4960] and a good[H2896] day.[H3117] And many[H7227] of the people[H4480] [H5971] of the land[H776] became Jews;[H3054] for[H3588] the fear[H6343] of the Jews[H3064] fell[H5307] upon[H5921] them.
