Now in the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, that is, the monthH2320 AdarH143, on the thirteenthH7969+H6240 dayH3117 of the same, when the king'sH4428 commandmentH1697 and his decreeH1881 drew nearH5060 to be put in executionH6213, in the dayH3117 that the enemiesH341 of the JewsH3064 hopedH7663 to have powerH7980 over them, (though it was turnedH2015 to the contrary, that the JewsH3064 had ruleH7980 over them that hatedH8130 them;)
The JewsH3064 gathered themselves togetherH6950 in their citiesH5892 throughout all the provincesH4082 of the kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, to layH7971 handH3027 on such as soughtH1245 their hurtH7451: and no manH376 could withstandH5975 themH6440; for the fearH6343 of them fellH5307 upon all peopleH5971.
And all the rulersH8269 of the provincesH4082, and the lieutenantsH323, and the deputiesH6346, and officersH6213+H4399 of the kingH4428, helpedH5375 the JewsH3064; because the fearH6343 of MordecaiH4782 fellH5307 upon them. {officers…: Heb. those which did the business that belonged to the king}
For MordecaiH4782 was greatH1419 in the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and his fameH8089 went outH1980 throughout all the provincesH4082: for this manH376 MordecaiH4782 waxedH1980 greater and greaterH1419.
Thus the JewsH3064 smoteH5221 all their enemiesH341 with the strokeH4347 of the swordH2719, and slaughterH2027, and destructionH12, and didH6213 what they wouldH7522 unto those that hatedH8130 them. {what…: Heb. according to their will}
And in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002 the JewsH3064 slewH2026 and destroyedH6 fiveH2568 hundredH3967 menH376.
And ParshandathaH6577, and DalphonH1813, and AspathaH630,
And PorathaH6334, and AdaliaH118, and AridathaH743,
And ParmashtaH6534, and ArisaiH747, and AridaiH742, and VajezathaH2055,
The tenH6235 sonsH1121 of HamanH2001 the sonH1121 of HammedathaH4099, the enemyH6887 of the JewsH3064, slewH2026 they; but on the spoilH961 laidH7971 they not their handH3027.
On that dayH3117 the numberH4557 of those that were slainH2026 in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002 was broughtH935 beforeH6440 the kingH4428. {was…: Heb. came}
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto EstherH635 the queenH4436, The JewsH3064 have slainH2026 and destroyedH6 fiveH2568 hundredH3967 menH376 in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002, and the tenH6235 sonsH1121 of HamanH2001; what have they doneH6213 in the restH7605 of the king'sH4428 provincesH4082? now what is thy petitionH7596? and it shall be grantedH5414 thee: or what is thy requestH1246 furtherH5750? and it shall be doneH6213.
Then saidH559 EstherH635, If it pleaseH2896 the kingH4428, let it be grantedH5414 to the JewsH3064 which are in ShushanH7800 to doH6213 to morrowH4279 also according unto this day'sH3117 decreeH1881, and let Haman'sH2001 tenH6235 sonsH1121 be hangedH8518 upon the gallowsH6086. {let Haman's…: Heb. let men hang, etc}
And the kingH4428 commandedH559 it so to be doneH6213: and the decreeH1881 was givenH5414 at ShushanH7800; and they hangedH8518 Haman'sH2001 tenH6235 sonsH1121.
For the JewsH3064 that were in ShushanH7800 gathered themselves togetherH6950 on the fourteenthH702+H6240 dayH3117 also of the monthH2320 AdarH143, and slewH2026 threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376 at ShushanH7800; but on the preyH961 they laidH7971 not their handH3027.
But the otherH7605 JewsH3064 that were in the king'sH4428 provincesH4082 gathered themselves togetherH6950, and stoodH5975 for their livesH5315, and had restH5118 from their enemiesH341, and slewH2026 of their foesH8130 seventyH7657 and fiveH2568 thousandH505, but they laidH7971 not their handsH3027 on the preyH961,
On the thirteenthH7969+H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 AdarH143; and on the fourteenthH702+H6240 day of the same restedH5118 they, and madeH6213 it a dayH3117 of feastingH4960 and gladnessH8057. {of the same: Heb. in it}
But the JewsH3064 that were at ShushanH7800 assembled togetherH6950 on the thirteenthH7969+H6240 day thereof, and on the fourteenthH702+H6240 thereof; and on the fifteenthH2568+H6240 day of the same they restedH5118, and madeH6213 it a dayH3117 of feastingH4960 and gladnessH8057.
Therefore the JewsH3064 of the villagesH6521, that dweltH3427 in the unwalledH6519 townsH5892, madeH6213 the fourteenthH702+H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 AdarH143 a day of gladnessH8057 and feastingH4960, and a goodH2896 dayH3117, and of sendingH4916 portionsH4490 oneH376 to anotherH7453.
And MordecaiH4782 wroteH3789 these thingsH1697, and sentH7971 lettersH5612 unto all the JewsH3064 that were in all the provincesH4082 of the kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, both nighH7138 and farH7350,
To stablishH6965 this among them, that they should keepH6213 the fourteenthH702+H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 AdarH143, and the fifteenthH2568+H6240 dayH3117 of the same, yearlyH8141+H8141,
As the daysH3117 wherein the JewsH3064 restedH5117 from their enemiesH341, and the monthH2320 which was turnedH2015 unto them from sorrowH3015 to joyH8057, and from mourningH60 into a goodH2896 dayH3117: that they should makeH6213 them daysH3117 of feastingH4960 and joyH8057, and of sendingH4916 portionsH4490 oneH376 to anotherH7453, and giftsH4979 to the poorH34.
And the JewsH3064 undertookH6901 to doH6213 as they had begunH2490, and as MordecaiH4782 had writtenH3789 unto them;
Because HamanH2001 the sonH1121 of HammedathaH4099, the AgagiteH91, the enemyH6887 of all the JewsH3064, had devisedH2803 against the JewsH3064 to destroyH6 them, and had castH5307 PurH6332, that is, the lotH1486, to consumeH2000 them, and to destroyH6 them; {consume: Heb. crush}
But when Esther cameH935 beforeH6440 the kingH4428, he commandedH559 by lettersH5612 that his wickedH7451 deviceH4284, which he devisedH2803 against the JewsH3064, should returnH7725 upon his own headH7218, and that he and his sonsH1121 should be hangedH8518 on the gallowsH6086. {when…: Heb. when she came}
Wherefore they calledH7121 these daysH3117 PurimH6332 after the nameH8034 of PurH6332. Therefore for all the wordsH1697 of this letterH107, and of that which they had seenH7200 concerning this matterH3602, and which had comeH5060 unto them, {Pur: that is, Lot}
The JewsH3064 ordainedH6965, and tookH6901 upon them, and upon their seedH2233, and upon all such as joinedH3867 themselves unto them, so as it should not failH5674, that they would keepH6213 these twoH8147 daysH3117 according to their writingH3791, and according to their appointed timeH2165 every yearH8141+H8141; {fail: Heb. pass}
And that these daysH3117 should be rememberedH2142 and keptH6213 throughoutH1755 every generationH1755, every familyH4940, every provinceH4082, and every cityH5892; and that these daysH3117 of PurimH6332 should not failH5674 from amongH8432 the JewsH3064, nor the memorialH2143 of them perishH5486 from their seedH2233. {fail: Heb. pass} {perish: Heb. be ended}
Then EstherH635 the queenH4436, the daughterH1323 of AbihailH32, and MordecaiH4782 the JewH3064, wroteH3789 with all authorityH8633, to confirmH6965 this secondH8145 letterH107 of PurimH6332. {authority: Heb. strength}
And he sentH7971 the lettersH5612 unto all the JewsH3064, to the hundredH3967 twentyH6242 and sevenH7651 provincesH4082 of the kingdomH4438 of AhasuerusH325, with wordsH1697 of peaceH7965 and truthH571,
To confirmH6965 these daysH3117 of PurimH6332 in their timesH2165 appointed, according as MordecaiH4782 the JewH3064 and EstherH635 the queenH4436 had enjoinedH6965 them, and as they had decreedH6965 for themselvesH5315 and for their seedH2233, the mattersH1697 of the fastingsH6685 and their cryH2201. {themselves: Heb. their souls}
And the decreeH3982 of EstherH635 confirmedH6965 these mattersH1697 of PurimH6332; and it was writtenH3789 in the bookH5612.

Then were the king'sH4428 scribesH5608 calledH7121 on the thirteenthH7969+H6240 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320, and there was writtenH3789 according to all that HamanH2001 had commandedH6680 unto the king'sH4428 lieutenantsH323, and to the governorsH6346 that were over every provinceH4082, and to the rulersH8269 of every peopleH5971 of every provinceH4082 according to the writingH3791 thereof, and to every peopleH5971 after their languageH3956; in the nameH8034 of kingH4428 AhasuerusH325 was it writtenH3789, and sealedH2856 with the king'sH4428 ringH2885. {scribes: or, secretaries}
Thou hast turnedH2015 for me my mourningH4553 into dancingH4234: thou hast put offH6605 my sackclothH8242, and girdedH247 me with gladnessH8057;
Therefore the JewsH3064 of the villagesH6521, that dweltH3427 in the unwalledH6519 townsH5892, madeH6213 the fourteenthH702+H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 AdarH143 a day of gladnessH8057 and feastingH4960, and a goodH2896 dayH3117, and of sendingH4916 portionsH4490 oneH376 to anotherH7453.
And the lettersH5612 were sentH7971 byH3027 postsH7323 into all the king'sH4428 provincesH4082, to destroyH8045, to killH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all JewsH3064, both youngH5288 and oldH2205, little childrenH2945 and womenH802, in oneH259 dayH3117, even upon the thirteenthH7969+H6240 day of the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, which is the monthH2320 AdarH143, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962.
Then he saidH559 unto them, Go your wayH3212, eatH398 the fatH4924, and drinkH8354 the sweetH4477, and sendH7971 portionsH4490 unto them for whom nothing is preparedH3559: for this dayH3117 is holyH6918 unto our LordH113: neither be ye sorryH6087; for the joyH2304 of the LORDH3068 is your strengthH4581.
So the LevitesH3881 stilledH2814 all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, Hold your peaceH2013, for the dayH3117 is holyH6918; neither be ye grievedH6087.
And all the peopleH5971 went their wayH3212 to eatH398, and to drinkH8354, and to sendH7971 portionsH4490, and to makeH6213 greatH1419 mirthH8057, because they had understoodH995 the wordsH1697 that were declaredH3045 unto them.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, RememberH2142 thisH2088 dayH3117, in which ye came outH3318 from EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650; for by strengthH2392 of handH3027 the LORDH3068 brought you outH3318 from this place: there shall no leavened breadH2557 be eatenH398. {bondage: Heb. servants}
This dayH3117 came ye outH3318 in the monthH2320 AbibH24.
And it shall be when the LORDH3068 shall bringH935 thee into the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, and the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, which he swareH7650 unto thy fathersH1 to giveH5414 thee, a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, that thou shalt keepH5647 this serviceH5656 in this monthH2320.
SevenH7651 daysH3117 thou shalt eatH398 unleavened breadH4682, and in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 shall be a feastH2282 to the LORDH3068.
Unleavened breadH4682 shall be eatenH398 sevenH7651 daysH3117; and there shall no leavened breadH2557 be seenH7200 with thee, neither shall there be leavenH7603 seenH7200 with thee in all thy quartersH1366.
And thou shalt shewH5046 thy sonH1121 in that dayH3117, sayingH559, This is done because ofH5668 thatH2088 which the LORDH3068 didH6213 unto me when I came forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714.
VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 yeG5210 shall weepG2799 andG2532 lamentG2354, butG1161 the worldG2889 shall rejoiceG5463: andG1161 yeG5210 shall be sorrowfulG3076, butG235 yourG5216 sorrowG3077 shall be turnedG1096 intoG1519 joyG5479.
A womanG1135 whenG3752 she is in travailG5088 hathG2192 sorrowG3077, becauseG3754 herG846 hourG5610 is comeG2064: butG1161 as soon asG3752 she is deliveredG1080 of the childG3813, she rememberethG3421 no moreG3765 the anguishG2347, forG1223 joyG5479 thatG3754 a manG444 is bornG1080 intoG1519 the worldG2889.
AndG2532 yeG5210+G3303 nowG3568 thereforeG3767 haveG2192 sorrowG3077: butG1161 I will seeG3700 youG5209 againG3825, andG2532 yourG5216 heartG2588 shall rejoiceG5463, andG2532 yourG5216 joyG5479 no manG3762 takethG142 fromG575 youG5216.
But ratherG4133 giveG1325 almsG1654 of such things as ye haveG1751; andG2532, beholdG2400, all thingsG3956 areG2076 cleanG2513 unto youG5213. {of…: or, as you are able}
AndG1161 allG3956 that believedG4100 wereG2258 togetherG1909+G846, andG2532 hadG2192 all thingsG537 commonG2839;
AndG2532 soldG4097 their possessionsG2933 andG2532 goodsG5223, andG2532 partedG1266 themG846 to allG3956 men, asG2530 every manG5100 hadG302+G2192 needG5532.
AndG5037 they, continuingG4342 dailyG2596+G2250 with one accordG3661 inG1722 the templeG2411, andG5037 breakingG2806 breadG740 fromG2596 house to houseG3624, did eatG3335 their meatG5160 withG1722 gladnessG20 andG2532 singlenessG858 of heartG2588, {from…: or, at home}
And in that dayH3117 thou shalt sayH559, O LORDH3068, I will praiseH3034 thee: though thou wast angryH599 with me, thine angerH639 is turned awayH7725, and thou comfortedstH5162 me.
OnlyG3440 they would thatG2443 we should rememberG3421 the poorG4434; the sameG846+G5124 whichG3739 IG4704 alsoG2532 was forwardG4704 to doG4160.
