1 After these things King Ahasuerus promoted Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.
2 All the kingโs servants who were in the kingโs gate bowed down, and paid homage to Haman; for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai didnโt bow down or pay him homage.
3 Then the kingโs servants, who were in the kingโs gate, said to Mordecai, โWhy do you disobey the kingโs commandment?โ
4 Now it came to pass, when they spoke daily to him, and he didnโt listen to them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecaiโs reason would stand; for he had told them that he was a Jew.
5 When Haman saw that Mordecai didnโt bow down, nor pay him homage, Haman was full of wrath.
6 But he scorned the thought of laying hands on Mordecai alone, for they had made known to him Mordecaiโs people. Therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even Mordecaiโs people.
7 In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, and chose the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.
8 Haman said to King Ahasuerus, โThere is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom, and their laws are different than other peopleโs. They donโt keep the kingโs laws. Therefore it is not for the kingโs profit to allow them to remain.
9 If it pleases the king, let it be written that they be destroyed; and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who are in charge of the kingโs business, to bring it into the kingโs treasuries.โ
10 The king took his ring from his hand, and gave it to Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jewsโ enemy.
11 The king said to Haman, โThe silver is given to you, the people also, to do with them as it seems good to you.โ
12 Then the kingโs scribes were called in on the first month, on the thirteenth day of the month; and all that Haman commanded was written to the kingโs satraps, and to the governors who were over every province, and to the princes of every people, to every province according to its writing, and to every people in their language. It was written in the name of King Ahasuerus, and it was sealed with the kingโs ring.
13 Letters were sent by couriers into all the kingโs provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to plunder their possessions.
14 A copy of the letter, that the decree should be given out in every province, was published to all the peoples, that they should be ready against that day.
15 The couriers went out in haste by the kingโs commandment, and the decree was given out in the citadel of Susa. The king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city of Shushan was perplexed.
