Esther 9:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 In the twelfth month (that is, the month of Adar), on its thirteenth day, the edict of the king and his law were to be executed. It was on this day that the enemies of the Jews had supposed that they would gain power over them. But contrary to expectations, the Jews gained power over their enemies.
2 The Jews assembled themselves in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus to strike out against those who were seeking their harm. No one was able to stand before them, for dread of them fell on all the peoples.
3 All the officials of the provinces, the satraps, the governors and those who performed the king's business were assisting the Jews, for the dread of Mordecai had fallen on them.
4 Mordecai was of high rank in the king's palace, and word about him was spreading throughout all the provinces. His influence continued to become greater and greater.
5 The Jews struck all their enemies with the sword, bringing death and destruction, and they did as they pleased with their enemies.
6 In Susa the citadel the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men.
7 In addition, they also killed Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,
9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha,
10 the ten sons of Haman son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews. But they did not confiscate their property.
11 On that same day the number of those killed in Susa the citadel was brought to the king's attention.
12 Then the king said to Queen Esther, "In Susa the citadel the Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men and the ten sons of Haman! What then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? What is your request? It shall be given to you. What other petition do you have? It shall be done."
13 Esther replied, "If the king is so inclined, let the Jews who are in Susa be permitted to act tomorrow also according to today's law, and let them hang the ten sons of Haman on the gallows."
14 So the king issued orders for this to be done. A law was passed in Susa, and the ten sons of Haman were hanged.
15 The Jews who were in Susa then assembled on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and they killed three hundred men in Susa. But they did not confiscate their property.
16 The rest of the Jews who were throughout the provinces of the king assembled in order to stand up for themselves and to have rest from their enemies. They killed seventy-five thousand of their adversaries, but they did not confiscate their property.
17 All of this happened on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar. They then rested on the fourteenth day and made it a day for banqueting and happiness.
18 But the Jews who were in Susa assembled on the thirteenth and fourteenth days, and rested on the fifteenth, making it a day for banqueting and happiness.
19 This is why the Jews who are in the rural country� those who live in rural cities� set aside the fourteenth day of the month of Adar as a holiday for happiness, banqueting, holiday, and sending gifts to one another.
20 Mordecai wrote these matters down and sent letters to all the Jews who were throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, both near and far,
21 to have them observe the fourteenth and the fifteenth day of the month of Adar each year
22 as the time when the Jews gave themselves rest from their enemies� the month when their trouble was turned to happiness and their mourning to a holiday. These were to be days of banqueting, happiness, sending gifts to one another, and providing for the poor.
23 So the Jews committed themselves to continue what they had begun to do and to what Mordecai had written to them.
24 For Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised plans against the Jews to destroy them. He had cast pur (that is, the lot) in order to afflict and destroy them.
25 But when the matter came to the king's attention, the king gave written orders that Haman's evil intentions that he had devised against the Jews should fall on his own head. He and his sons were hanged on the gallows.
26 For this reason these days are known as Purim, after the name of pur.
27 Therefore, because of the account found in this letter and what they had faced in this regard and what had happened to them, the Jews established as binding on themselves, their descendants, and all who joined their company that they should observe these two days without fail, just as written and at the appropriate time on an annual basis.
28 These days were to be remembered and to be celebrated in every generation and in every family, every province, and every city. The Jews were not to fail to observe these days of Purim; the remembrance of them was not to cease among their descendants.
29 So Queen Esther, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew wrote with full authority to confirm this second letter about Purim.
30 Letters were sent to all the Jews in the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the empire of Ahasuerus� words of true peace�
31 to establish these days of Purim in their proper times, just as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had established, and just as they had established both for themselves and their descendants, matters pertaining to fasting and lamentation.
32 Esther's command established these matters of Purim, and the matter was officially recorded.
1 Now in the twelfth H8147 H6240 month, H2320 that H1931 is , the month H2320 Adar, H143 on the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day H3117 of the same, when H834 the king's H4428 commandment H1697 and his decree H1881 drew near H5060 to be put in execution, H6213 in the day H3117 that H834 the enemies H341 of the Jews H3064 hoped H7663 to have power H7980 over them, (though it H1931 was turned to the contrary, H2015 that H834 the Jews H3064 had rule over H7980 them H1992 that hated H8130 them;)
2 The Jews H3064 gathered themselves together H6950 in their cities H5892 throughout all H3605 the provinces H4082 of the king H4428 Ahasuerus, H325 to lay H7971 hand H3027 on such as sought H1245 their hurt: H7451 and no H3808 man H376 could withstand H5975 them; for H3588 the fear H6343 of them fell H5307 upon H5921 all H3605 people. H5971
3 And all H3605 the rulers H8269 of the provinces, H4082 and the lieutenants, H323 and the deputies, H6346 and officers H6213 H4399 of H834 the king, H4428 helped H5375 H853 the Jews; H3064 because H3588 the fear H6343 of Mordecai H4782 fell H5307 upon H5921 them.
4 For H3588 Mordecai H4782 was great H1419 in the king's H4428 house, H1004 and his fame H8089 went out H1980 throughout all H3605 the provinces: H4082 for H3588 this man H376 Mordecai H4782 waxed H1980 greater and greater. H1419
5 Thus the Jews H3064 smote H5221 all H3605 their enemies H341 with the stroke H4347 of the sword, H2719 and slaughter, H2027 and destruction, H12 and did H6213 what they would H7522 unto those that hated H8130 them.
6 And in Shushan H7800 the palace H1002 the Jews H3064 slew H2026 and destroyed H6 five H2568 hundred H3967 men. H376
7 And Parshandatha, H6577 and Dalphon, H1813 and Aspatha, H630
8 And Poratha, H6334 and Adalia, H118 and Aridatha, H743
9 And Parmashta, H6534 and Arisai, H747 and Aridai, H742 and Vajezatha, H2055
10 The ten H6235 sons H1121 of Haman H2001 the son H1121 of Hammedatha, H4099 the enemy H6887 of the Jews, H3064 slew H2026 they ; but on the spoil H961 laid H7971 they not H3808 H853 their hand. H3027
11 On that H1931 day H3117 the number H4557 of those that were slain H2026 in Shushan H7800 the palace H1002 was brought H935 before H6440 the king. H4428
12 And the king H4428 said H559 unto Esther H635 the queen, H4436 The Jews H3064 have slain H2026 and destroyed H6 five H2568 hundred H3967 men H376 in Shushan H7800 the palace, H1002 and the ten H6235 sons H1121 of Haman; H2001 what H4100 have they done H6213 in the rest H7605 of the king's H4428 provinces H4082 ? now what H4100 is thy petition H7596 ? and it shall be granted H5414 thee : or what H4100 is thy request H1246 further H5750 ? and it shall be done. H6213
13 Then said H559 Esther, H635 If H518 it please H2895 H5921 the king, H4428 let it be granted H5414 to the Jews H3064 which H834 are in Shushan H7800 to do H6213 tomorrow H4279 also H1571 according unto this day's H3117 decree, H1881 and let Haman's H2001 ten H6235 sons H1121 be hanged H8518 upon H5921 the gallows. H6086
14 And the king H4428 commanded H559 it so H3651 to be done: H6213 and the decree H1881 was given H5414 at Shushan; H7800 and they hanged H8518 Haman's H2001 ten H6235 sons. H1121
15 For the Jews H3064 that H834 were in Shushan H7800 gathered themselves together H6950 on the fourteenth H702 H6240 day H3117 also H1571 of the month H2320 Adar, H143 and slew H2026 three H7969 hundred H3967 men H376 at Shushan; H7800 but on the prey H961 they laid H7971 not H3808 H853 their hand. H3027
16 But the other H7605 Jews H3064 that H834 were in the king's H4428 provinces H4082 gathered themselves together, H6950 and stood H5975 for H5921 their lives, H5315 and had rest H5117 from their enemies H4480 H341 , and slew H2026 of their foes H8130 seventy H7657 and five H2568 thousand, H505 but they laid H7971 not H3808 H853 their hands H3027 on the prey, H961
17 On the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day H3117 of the month H2320 Adar; H143 and on the fourteenth H702 H6240 day of the same rested H5117 they , and made H6213 it a day H3117 of feasting H4960 and gladness. H8057
18 But the Jews H3064 that H834 were at Shushan H7800 assembled together H6950 on the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day thereof , and on the fourteenth H702 H6240 thereof ; and on the fifteenth H2568 H6240 day of the same they rested, H5117 and made H6213 it a day H3117 of feasting H4960 and gladness. H8057
19 Therefore H5921 H3651 the Jews H3064 of the villages, H6521 that dwelt H3427 in the unwalled H6519 towns, H5892 made H6213 H853 the fourteenth H702 H6240 day H3117 of the month H2320 Adar H143 a day of gladness H8057 and feasting, H4960 and a good H2896 day, H3117 and of sending H4916 portions H4490 one H376 to another. H7453
20 And Mordecai H4782 wrote H3789 H853 these H428 things, H1697 and sent H7971 letters H5612 unto H413 all H3605 the Jews H3064 that H834 were in all H3605 the provinces H4082 of the king H4428 Ahasuerus, H325 both nigh H7138 and far, H7350
21 To establish H6965 this among H5921 them , that they should H1961 keep the fourteenth H702 H6240 day H3117 of the month H2320 Adar, H143 and the fifteenth H2568 H6240 day H3117 of the same, yearly H3605 H8141, H8141
22 As the days H3117 wherein H834 the Jews H3064 rested H5117 from their enemies H4480 H341 , and the month H2320 which H834 was turned H2015 unto them from sorrow H4480 H3015 to joy, H8057 and from mourning H4480 H60 into a good H2896 day: H3117 that they should make H6213 them days H3117 of feasting H4960 and joy, H8057 and of sending H4916 portions H4490 one H376 to another, H7453 and gifts H4979 to the poor. H34
23 And the Jews H3064 undertook H6901 to do H6213 H853 as H834 they had begun, H2490 and as H834 Mordecai H4782 had written H3789 unto H413 them;
24 Because H3588 Haman H2001 the son H1121 of Hammedatha, H4099 the Agagite, H91 the enemy H6887 of all H3605 the Jews, H3064 had devised H2803 against H5921 the Jews H3064 to destroy H6 them , and had cast H5307 Pur, H6332 that H1931 is , the lot, H1486 to consume H2000 them , and to destroy H6 them;
25 But when Esther came H935 before H6440 the king, H4428 he commanded H559 by H5973 letters H5612 that his wicked H7451 device, H4284 which H834 he devised H2803 against H5921 the Jews, H3064 should return H7725 upon H5921 his own head, H7218 and that he and his sons H1121 should be hanged H8518 on H5921 the gallows. H6086
26 Wherefore H5921 H3651 they called H7121 these H428 days H3117 Purim H6332 after H5921 the name H8034 of Pur. H6332 Therefore H5921 H3651 for H5921 all H3605 the words H1697 of this H2063 letter, H107 and of that which H4100 they had seen H7200 concerning H5921 this matter, H3602 and which H4100 had come H5060 unto H413 them,
27 The Jews H3064 ordained, H6965 and took H6901 upon H5921 them , and upon H5921 their seed, H2233 and upon H5921 all H3605 such as joined themselves H3867 unto H5921 them , so as it should not H3808 fail, H5674 that they would keep H6213 H853 these H428 two H8147 days H3117 according to their writing, H3791 and according to their appointed H2165 every H3605 year H8141 H8141 ;
28 And that these H428 days H3117 should be remembered H2142 and kept H6213 throughout every H3605 generation H1755 H1755 , every family H4940 H4940 , every province H4082 H4082 , and every city H5892 H5892 ; and that these H428 days H3117 of Purim H6332 should not H3808 fail H5674 from among H4480 H8432 the Jews, H3064 nor H3808 the memorial H2143 of them perish H5486 from their seed H4480 H2233 .
29 Then Esther H635 the queen, H4436 the daughter H1323 of Abihail, H32 and Mordecai H4782 the Jew, H3064 wrote H3789 with H854 all H3605 authority, H8633 to confirm H6965 H853 this H2063 second H8145 letter H107 of Purim. H6332
30 And he sent H7971 the letters H5612 unto H413 all H3605 the Jews, H3064 to H413 the hundred H3967 twenty H6242 and seven H7651 provinces H4082 of the kingdom H4438 of Ahasuerus, H325 with words H1697 of peace H7965 and truth, H571
31 To confirm H6965 H853 these H428 days H3117 of Purim H6332 in their times H2165 appointed , according as H834 Mordecai H4782 the Jew H3064 and Esther H635 the queen H4436 had enjoined H6965 H5921 them , and as H834 they had decreed H6965 for H5921 themselves H5315 and for H5921 their seed, H2233 the matters H1697 of the fastings H6685 and their cry. H2201
32 And the decree H3982 of Esther H635 confirmed H6965 these H428 matters H1697 of Purim; H6332 and it was written H3789 in the book. H5612
