Esther 8:6

For how can I watch the calamity that will befall my people, and how can I watch the destruction of my relatives?” ¹ 

For how can I bear to see disaster fall on my people? How can I bear to see the destruction of my family?"

"For how can I endure to see the calamity which will befall my people, and how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?"

For how can I endure to see my people and my family slaughtered and destroyed?"

How can I stand to see this catastrophe wipe out my people? How can I bear to stand by and watch the massacre of my own relatives?"

For how is it possible for me to see the evil which is to overtake my nation? how may I see the destruction of my people?

For how can I bear to see the calamity that is coming on my people? Or how can I bear to see the destruction of my kindred?"

"For 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?"

For how can I watch the calamity that will befall my people, and how can I watch the destruction of my relatives?” ¹ 

¹ tn Heb “my kindred” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV); NAB “my race”; NIV “my family”; NLT “my people and my family.”
