Then were the
king's scribes called on the
thirteenth* day of the
first month, and there was
written according to all that
Haman had
commanded unto the
king's lieutenants, and to the
governors that were over every
province, and to the
rulers of every
people of every
province according to the
writing thereof, and to every
people after their
language; in the
name of
king Ahasuerus was it
written, and
sealed with the
king's ring.

And the
letters were
sent by posts into all the
king's provinces, to
destroy, to
kill, and to cause to
perish, all
Jews, both
young and
old, little
children and
women, in
one day, even upon the
thirteenth day of the
twelfth* month, which is the
month Adar, and to take the
spoil of them for a
prey.

The
posts went
out, being
hastened by the
king's commandment, and the

given in

city Shushan was
perplexed.
