Esther 8:5-6

5and said, “If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight and the thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to annihilate the Jews who are in all the king’s provinces.

6For how can I endure to see the evil that will come to my people? Or how can I endure to see the destruction of my countrymen?”
