33 He cut out the tongue of the ungodly Nicanor and ordered that it be given to the birds in pieces, and he hung the rewards of his stupidity in front of the temple.
34 Looking to heaven, everyone praised the Lord, who had made himself known, saying, "Blessed is the one who kept his own holy place pure."

36 The people decided to issue a regulation forbidding anyone to forget this day but reminding all to celebrate the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, called Adar in the Syrian language, the day before Mordecai's day.
37 After things turned out this way with Nicanor, the Hebrews controlled the city from that time on. So at this point I will stop.
