Now in the
twelfth * month (that is, the
month Adar ), on the
thirteenth * day when the
king's command and
edict were about to be
executed, on the
day when the
enemies of the
Jews hoped to
gain the
mastery over them, it was
turned to the contrary so that the
Jews themselves gained the
mastery over those who
hated them.
