Esther 3:8-10

8And HamanH2001 saidH559 unto kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, There is a certainH259 peopleH5971 scatteredH6340 abroad and dispersedH6504 among the peoplesH5971 in allH3605 the provincesH4082 of thy kingdomH4438; and their lawsH1881 are diverse from thoseH3605 of everyH3605 peopleH5971; neitherH369 keepH6213 they the king’sH4428 lawsH1881: therefore it is notH369 for the king’sH4428 profit to suffer them.

9IfH518 it pleaseH2895 the kingH4428, let it be writtenH3789 that they be destroyedH6: and I will payH8254 tenH6235 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 intoH413 the handsH3027 of thoseH5921 that have the chargeH5921 of the king’sH4428 businessH4399, to bringH935 it intoH413 the king’sH4428 treasuriesH1595.

10And the kingH4428 tookH5493 his ringH2885 from his handH3027, and gaveH5414 it unto HamanH2001 the sonH1121 of Hammedatha the AgagiteH91, the Jews’H3064 enemyH6887.
