Additions to Esther 4:37 In-Context

35 For we have worshipped their gods. Thou art just, O Lord.

36 And now they are not content to oppress us with most hard bondage, but attributing the strength of their hands to the power of their idols,

37 They design to change thy promises, and destroy thy inheritance, and shut the mouths of them that praise thee, and extinguish the glory of thy temple and altar,

38 That they may open the mouths of Gentiles, and praise the strength of idols, and magnify for ever a carnal king.

39 Give not, O Lord, thy sceptre to them that are not, lest they laugh at our ruin: but turn their counsel upon themselves, and destroy him that hath begun to rage against us.
