Esther 3:8-9

8And HamanH2001 saidH559 unto kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, There is a certain peopleH5971 scatteredH6340 abroad and dispersed among the peoplesH5971 in all the provincesH4082 of thy kingdomH4438; and their lawsH1881 are diverse from those of every peopleH5971; neither keep they the king’sH4428 lawsH1881: therefore it is not for the king’sH4428 profit to suffer them. 9If it please the kingH4428, let it be writtenH3789 that they be destroyedH6: and I will pay tenH6235 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 into the handsH3027 of those that have the charge of the king’sH4428 businessH4399, to bringH935 it into the king’sH4428 treasuriesH1595.
