Esther 3:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 Some time later King Ahasuerus promoted Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, exalting him and setting his position above that of all the officials who were with him.
2 As a result, all the king's servants who were at the king's gate were bowing and paying homage to Haman, for the king had so commanded. However, Mordecai did not bow, nor did he pay him homage.
3 Then the servants of the king who were at the king's gate asked Mordecai, "Why are you violating the king's commandment?"
4 And after they had spoken to him day after day without his paying any attention to them, they informed Haman to see whether this attitude on Mordecai's part would be permitted. Furthermore, he had disclosed to them that he was a Jew.
5 When Haman saw that Mordecai was not bowing or paying homage to him, he was filled with rage.
6 But the thought of striking out against Mordecai alone was repugnant to him, for he had been informed of the identity of Mordecai's people. So Haman sought to destroy all the Jews (that is, the people of Mordecai) who were in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus.
7 In the first month (that is, the month of Nisan), in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus' reign, pur (that is, the lot) was cast before Haman in order to determine a day and a month. It turned out to be the twelfth month (that is, the month of Adar).
8 Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a particular people that is dispersed and spread among the inhabitants throughout all the provinces of your kingdom whose laws differ from those of all other peoples. Furthermore, they do not observe the king's laws. It is not appropriate for the king to provide a haven for them.
9 If the king is so inclined, let an edict be issued to destroy them. I will pay ten thousand talents of silver to be conveyed to the king's treasuries for the officials who carry out this business."
10 So the king removed his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, who was hostile toward the Jews.
11 The king replied to Haman, "Keep your money, and do with those people whatever you wish."
12 So the royal scribes were summoned in the first month, on the thirteenth day of the month. Everything Haman commanded was written to the king's satraps and governors who were in every province and to the officials of every people, province by province according to its script and people by people according to its language. In the name of King Ahasuerus it was written and sealed with the king's signet ring.
13 Letters were sent by the runners to all the king's provinces stating that they should destroy, kill, and annihilate all the Jews, from youth to elderly, both women and children, on a particular day, namely the thirteenth day of the twelfth month (that is, the month of Adar), and to loot and plunder their possessions.
14 A copy of this edict was to be presented as law throughout every province; it was to be made known to all the inhabitants, so that they would be prepared for this day.
15 The messengers scurried forth with the king's order. The edict was issued in Susa the citadel. While the king and Haman sat down to drink, the city of Susa was in an uproar!
1 After H310 these H428 things H1697 did king H4428 Ahasuerus H325 promote H1431 H853 Haman H2001 the son H1121 of Hammedatha H4099 the Agagite, H91 and advanced H5375 him , and set H7760 H853 his seat H3678 above H4480 H5921 all H3605 the princes H8269 that H834 were with H854 him.
2 And all H3605 the king's H4428 servants, H5650 that H834 were in the king's H4428 gate, H8179 bowed, H3766 and reverenced H7812 Haman: H2001 for H3588 the king H4428 had so H3651 commanded H6680 concerning him . But Mordecai H4782 bowed H3766 not, H3808 nor H3808 did him reverence. H7812
3 Then the king's H4428 servants, H5650 which H834 were in the king's H4428 gate, H8179 said H559 unto Mordecai, H4782 Why H4069 transgressest H5674 thou H859 H853 the king's H4428 commandment H4687 ?
4 Now it came to pass, H1961 when they spoke H559 daily H3117 H3117 unto H413 him , and he hearkened H8085 not H3808 unto H413 them , that they told H5046 Haman, H2001 to see H7200 whether Mordecai's H4782 matters H1697 would stand: H5975 for H3588 he had told H5046 them that H834 he H1931 was a Jew. H3064
5 And when Haman H2001 saw H7200 that H3588 Mordecai H4782 bowed H3766 not, H369 nor did him reverence, H7812 then was Haman H2001 full H4390 of wrath. H2534
6 And he thought H5869 scorn H959 to lay H7971 hands H3027 on Mordecai H4782 alone; H905 for H3588 they had showed H5046 him H853 the people H5971 of Mordecai: H4782 wherefore Haman H2001 sought H1245 to destroy H8045 H853 all H3605 the Jews H3064 that H834 were throughout the whole H3605 kingdom H4438 of Ahasuerus, H325 even the people H5971 of Mordecai. H4782
7 In the first H7223 month, H2320 that H1931 is , the month H2320 Nisan, H5212 in the twelfth H8147 H6240 year H8141 of king H4428 Ahasuerus, H325 they cast H5307 Pur, H6332 that H1931 is , the lot, H1486 before H6440 Haman H2001 from day H4480 H3117 to day, H3117 and from month H4480 H2320 to month, H2320 to the twelfth H8147 H6240 month , that H1931 is , the month H2320 Adar. H143
8 And Haman H2001 said H559 unto king H4428 Ahasuerus, H325 There is H3426 a certain H259 people H5971 scattered abroad H6340 and dispersed H6504 among H996 the people H5971 in all H3605 the provinces H4082 of thy kingdom; H4438 and their laws H1881 are diverse H8138 from all H4480 H3605 people; H5971 neither H369 keep H6213 they the king's H4428 laws: H1881 therefore it is not H369 for the king's H4428 profit H7737 to suffer H5117 them.
9 If H518 it please H2895 H5921 the king, H4428 let it be written H3789 that they may be destroyed: H6 and I will pay H8254 ten H6235 thousand H505 talents H3603 of silver H3701 to H5921 the hands H3027 of those that have the charge H6213 of the business, H4399 to bring H935 it into H413 the king's H4428 treasuries. H1595
10 And the king H4428 took H5493 H853 his ring H2885 from H4480 H5921 his hand, H3027 and gave H5414 it unto Haman H2001 the son H1121 of Hammedatha H4099 the Agagite, H91 the Jews' H3064 enemy. H6887
11 And the king H4428 said H559 unto Haman, H2001 The silver H3701 is given H5414 to thee , the people H5971 also , to do H6213 with them as it seemeth good to thee. H5869
12 Then were the king's H4428 scribes H5608 called H7121 on the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day H3117 of the first H7223 month, H2320 and there was written H3789 according to all H3605 that H834 Haman H2001 had commanded H6680 unto H413 the king's H4428 lieutenants, H323 and to H413 the governors H6346 that H834 were over H5921 every province H4082 H4082 , and to H413 the rulers H8269 of every people H5971 H5971 of every province H4082 H4082 according to the writing H3791 thereof , and to every people H5971 H5971 after their language; H3956 in the name H8034 of king H4428 Ahasuerus H325 was it written, H3789 and sealed H2856 with the king's H4428 ring. H2885
13 And the letters H5612 were sent H7971 by H3027 posts H7323 into H413 all H3605 the king's H4428 provinces, H4082 to destroy, H8045 to kill, H2026 and to cause to perish, H6 H853 all H3605 Jews, H3064 both young H4480 H5288 and H5704 old, H2205 little children H2945 and women, H802 in one H259 day, H3117 even upon the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day of the twelfth H8147 H6240 month, H2320 which H1931 is the month H2320 Adar, H143 and to take the spoil H7998 of them for a prey. H962
14 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 that they should be H1961 ready H6264 against that H2088 day. H3117
15 The posts H7323 went out, H3318 being hastened H1765 by the king's H4428 commandment, H1697 and the decree H1881 was given H5414 in Shushan H7800 the palace. H1002 And the king H4428 and Haman H2001 sat down H3427 to drink; H8354 but the city H5892 Shushan H7800 was perplexed. H943
