Esther 8:16--9:3

The Jews
<03064>
had light
<0219>_,
and gladness
<08057>_,
and joy
<08342>_,
and honour
<03366>_.
And in every province
<04082>_,
and in every city
<05892>_,
whithersoever
<04725>
the king's
<04428>
commandment
<01697>
and his decree
<01881>
came
<05060> (8688)_,
the Jews
<03064>
had joy
<08057>
and gladness
<08342>_,
a feast
<04960>
and a good
<02896>
day
<03117>_.
And many
<07227>
of the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>
became Jews
<03054> (8693)_;
for the fear
<06343>
of the Jews
<03064>
fell
<05307> (8804)
upon them.
Now in the twelfth
<08147> <06240>
month
<02320>_,
that [is], the month
<02320>
Adar
<0143>_,
on the thirteenth
<07969> <06240>
day
<03117>
of the same, when the king's
<04428>
commandment
<01697>
and his decree
<01881>
drew near
<05060> (8689)
to be put in execution
<06213> (8736)_,
in the day
<03117>
that the enemies
<0341> (8802)
of the Jews
<03064>
hoped
<07663> (8765)
to have power
<07980> (8800)
over them, (though it was turned
<02015> (8736)
to the contrary, that the Jews
<03064>
had rule
<07980> (8799)
over them that hated
<08130> (8802)
them;)
The Jews
<03064>
gathered themselves together
<06950> (8738)
in their cities
<05892>
throughout all the provinces
<04082>
of the king
<04428>
Ahasuerus
<0325>_,
to lay
<07971> (8800)
hand
<03027>
on such as sought
<01245> (8764)
their hurt
<07451>_:
and no man
<0376>
could withstand
<05975> (8804)
them
<06440>_;
for the fear
<06343>
of them fell
<05307> (8804)
upon all people
<05971>_.
And all the rulers
<08269>
of the provinces
<04082>_,
and the lieutenants
<0323>_,
and the deputies
<06346>_,
and officers
<06213> (8802) <04399>
of the king
<04428>_,
helped
<05375> (8764)
the Jews
<03064>_;
because the fear
<06343>
of Mordecai
<04782>
fell
<05307> (8804)
upon them. {officers...: Heb. those which did the business that belonged to the king}
