4And the kingH4428 held out the golden sceptre toward EstherH635. And EstherH635 aroseH6965 and stoodH5975 before the kingH4428,

5and saidH559, If it please the kingH4428 and if I have foundH4672 graceH2580 before him, and the thingH1697 seem right to the kingH4428, and I be pleasing in his sight, let it be writtenH3789 to reverse the lettersH5612 devised by HamanH2001 the sonH1121 of Hammedatha the AgagiteH91, which he wroteH3789 to destroyH6 the JewsH3064 that are in all the king's provincesH4082.

6For howH349 shall I endure to seeH7200 the evilH7451 that shall befall my peopleH5971? and howH349 shall I endure to seeH7200 the destruction of my kindredH4138?
