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.
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.
Upon oneH259 dayH3117 in all the provincesH4082 of kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, namely, upon the thirteenthH7969+H6240 day of the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, which is the monthH2320 AdarH143.
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}
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.
The copyH6572 of the writingH3791 for a commandmentH1881 to be givenH5414 in every provinceH4082 was publishedH1540 unto all peopleH5971, that they should be readyH6264 against that dayH3117.
WriteH3789 ye also for the JewsH3064, as it likethH2896 youH5869, in the king'sH4428 nameH8034, and sealH2856 it with the king'sH4428 ringH2885: for the writingH3791 which is writtenH3789 in the king'sH4428 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 with the king'sH4428 ringH2885, may no man reverseH7725.
Then were the king'sH4428 scribesH5608 calledH7121 at that timeH6256 in the thirdH7992 monthH2320, that is, the monthH2320 SivanH5510, on the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 day thereof; and it was writtenH3789 according to all that MordecaiH4782 commandedH6680 unto the JewsH3064, and to the lieutenantsH323, and the deputiesH6346 and rulersH8269 of the provincesH4082 which are from IndiaH1912 unto EthiopiaH3568, an hundredH3967 twentyH6242 and sevenH7651 provincesH4082, unto every provinceH4082 according to the writingH3791 thereof, and unto every peopleH5971 after their languageH3956, and to the JewsH3064 according to their writingH3791, and according to their languageH3956.
And he wroteH3789 in the kingH4428 Ahasuerus'H325 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 it with the king'sH4428 ringH2885, and sentH7971 lettersH5612 byH3027 postsH7323 on horsebackH5483, and ridersH7392 on mulesH7409, camelsH327, and youngH1121 dromedariesH7424:
Wherein the kingH4428 grantedH5414 the JewsH3064 which were in every cityH5892 to gather themselves togetherH6950, and to standH5975 for their lifeH5315, to destroyH8045, to slayH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all the powerH2428 of the peopleH5971 and provinceH4082 that would assaultH6696 them, both little onesH2945 and womenH802, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962,
ForG1063 the lawG3551 of the SpiritG4151 of lifeG2222 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 hath madeG1659 meG3165 freeG1659 fromG575 the lawG3551 of sinG266 andG2532 deathG2288.
Wherein the kingH4428 grantedH5414 the JewsH3064 which were in every cityH5892 to gather themselves togetherH6950, and to standH5975 for their lifeH5315, to destroyH8045, to slayH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all the powerH2428 of the peopleH5971 and provinceH4082 that would assaultH6696 them, both little onesH2945 and womenH802, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962,
ThenH227 the dukesH441 of EdomH123 shall be amazedH926; the mighty menH352 of MoabH4124, tremblingH7461 shall take holdH270 upon them; all the inhabitantsH3427 of CanaanH3667 shall melt awayH4127.
And she saidH559 unto the menH582, I knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 you the landH776, and that your terrorH367 is fallenH5307 upon us, and that all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 faintH4127 becauseH6440 of you. {faint: Heb. melt}
And as soon as we had heardH8085 these things, our heartsH3824 did meltH4549, neither did there remainH6965 any more courageH7307 in any manH376, becauseH6440 of you: for the LORDH3068 your GodH430, he is GodH430 in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, and in earthH776 beneath. {did there…: Heb. rose up}
And there was tremblingH2731 in the hostH4264, in the fieldH7704, and among all the peopleH5971: the garrisonH4673, and the spoilersH7843, they also trembledH2729, and the earthH776 quakedH7264: so it was a very greatH430 tremblingH2731. {a very…: Heb. a trembling of God}
And they smoteH5221 all the citiesH5892 round aboutH5439 GerarH1642; for the fearH6343 of the LORDH3068 came upon them: and they spoiledH962 all the citiesH5892; for there was exceeding muchH7227 spoilH961 in them.
And the fearH6343 of the LORDH3068 fell upon all the kingdomsH4467 of the landsH776 that were round aboutH5439 JudahH3063, so that they made no warH3898 against JehoshaphatH3092. {fell: Heb. was}
And the fearH6343 of GodH430 was on all the kingdomsH4467 of those countriesH776, when they had heardH8085 that the LORDH3068 foughtH3898 against the enemiesH341 of IsraelH3478.
He brought them forthH3318 also with silverH3701 and goldH2091: and there was not one feebleH3782 person among their tribesH7626.
EgyptH4714 was gladH8055 when they departedH3318: for the fearH6343 of them fellH5307 upon them.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, FearH3372 them not: for I have deliveredH5414 them into thine handH3027; there shall not a manH376 of them standH5975 beforeH6440 thee.
And the LORDH3068 gave them restH5117 round aboutH5439, according to all that he swareH7650 unto their fathersH1: and there stoodH5975 not a manH376 of all their enemiesH341 beforeH6440 them; the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 all their enemiesH341 into their handH3027.
For the LORDH3068 hath driven outH3423 from beforeH6440 you greatH1419 nationsH1471 and strongH6099: but as for you, no manH376 hath been able to standH5975 beforeH6440 you unto this dayH3117. {For the LORD…: or, Then the LORD will drive}
AndG2532 takeG1209 the helmetG4030 of salvationG4992, andG2532 the swordG3162 of the SpiritG4151, which isG3603 the wordG4487 of GodG2316:
So DavidH1732 waxedH3212 greaterH1980 and greaterH1419: for the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 was with him. {waxed…: Heb. went in going and increasing}
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 forG1519 everG165; andG2532 of hisG846 kingdomG932 there shall beG2071 noG3756 endG5056.
Therefore will he give them upH5414, until the timeH6256 that she which travailethH3205 hath brought forthH3205: then the remnantH3499 of his brethrenH251 shall returnH7725 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
HeG1565 mustG1163 increaseG837, butG1161 IG1691 must decreaseG1642.
And the remnantH7611 of JacobH3290 shall be in the midstH7130 of manyH7227 peopleH5971 as a dewH2919 from the LORDH3068, as the showersH7241 upon the grassH6212, that tarriethH6960 not for manH376, nor waitethH3176 for the sonsH1121 of menH120.
And the remnantH7611 of JacobH3290 shall be among the GentilesH1471 in the midstH7130 of manyH7227 peopleH5971 as a lionH738 among the beastsH929 of the forestH3293, as a young lionH3715 among the flocksH5739 of sheepH6629: who, if he go throughH5674, both treadeth downH7429, and teareth in piecesH2963, and none can deliverH5337. {sheep: or, goats}
AndG2532 the beastG2342 was takenG4084, andG2532 withG3326 himG5127 the false prophetG5578 that wroughtG4160 miraclesG4592 beforeG1799 himG846, withG1722 whichG3739 he deceivedG4105 them that had receivedG2983 the markG5480 of the beastG2342, andG2532 them that worshippedG4352 hisG846 imageG1504. These bothG1417 were castG906 aliveG2198 intoG1519 a lakeG3041 of fireG4442 burningG2545 withG1722 brimstoneG2303.
AndG2532 the remnantG3062 were slainG615 withG1722 the swordG4501 of him that satG2521 uponG1909 the horseG2462, whichG3588 sword proceededG1607 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750: andG2532 allG3956 the fowlsG3732 were filledG5526 withG1537 theirG846 fleshG4561.
Wherein the kingH4428 grantedH5414 the JewsH3064 which were in every cityH5892 to gather themselves togetherH6950, and to standH5975 for their lifeH5315, to destroyH8045, to slayH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all the powerH2428 of the peopleH5971 and provinceH4082 that would assaultH6696 them, both little onesH2945 and womenH802, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962,
And the cityH5892 shall be accursedH2764, even it, and all that are therein, to the LORDH3068: only RahabH7343 the harlotH2181 shall liveH2421, she and all that are with her in the houseH1004, because she hidH2244 the messengersH4397 that we sentH7971. {accursed: or, devoted}
And ye, in any wiseH7535 keepH8104 yourselves from the accursed thingH2764, lest ye make yourselves accursedH2763, when ye takeH3947 of the accursed thingH2764, and makeH7760 the campH4264 of IsraelH3478 a curseH2764, and troubleH5916 it. {accursed: or, devoted} {a curse: or, devoted}
But all the silverH3701, and goldH2091, and vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 and ironH1270, are consecratedH6944 unto the LORDH3068: they shall comeH935 into the treasuryH214 of the LORDH3068. {consecrated: Heb. holiness}
So the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 when the priests blewH8628 with the trumpetsH7782: and it came to pass, when the peopleH5971 heardH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, that the wallH2346 fell down flatH5307, so that the peopleH5971 went upH5927 into the cityH5892, every manH376 straight before him, and they tookH3920 the cityH5892. {flat: Heb. under it}
And they utterly destroyedH2763 all that was in the cityH5892, both manH376 and womanH802, youngH5288 and oldH2205, and oxH7794, and sheepH7716, and assH2543, with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
