"The king replied to Haman,“Keep your money, and do with those people whatever you wish.”"
— Esther 3:11, NET Bible
“And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee.”
“And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee. ”
“The king said to Haman, "The silver is given to you, the people also, to do with them as it seems good to you."”
“And he said to him: As to the money which thou promisest, keep it for thyself: and as to the people, do with them as seemeth good to thee.”
“And the king said to Haman, The money is yours, and the people, to do with them whatever seems right to you.”
“And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee.”
Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus,“There is a particular people that is dispersed and spread among the inhabitants throughout all the provinces of your kingdom whose laws differ from those of all other peoples. Furthermore, they do not observe the king’s laws. It is not appropriate for the king to provide a haven for them.
If the king is so inclined, let an edict be issued to destroy them. I will pay 10,000 talents of silver to be conveyed to the king’s treasuries for the officials who carry out this business.”
So the king removed his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, who was hostile toward the Jews.
The king replied to Haman,“Keep your money, and do with those people whatever you wish.”
So the royal scribes were summoned in the first month, on the thirteenth day of the month. Everything Haman commanded was written to the king’s satraps and governors who were in every province and to the officials of every people, province by province according to its script and people by people according to its language. In the name of King Ahasuerus it was written and sealed with the king’s signet ring.
Letters were sent by the runners to all the king’s provinces stating that they should destroy, kill, and annihilate all the Jews, from youth to elderly, both women and children, on a particular day, namely the thirteenth day of the twelfth month(that is, the month of Adar), and to loot and plunder their possessions.
A copy of this edict was to be presented as law throughout every province; it was to be made known to all the inhabitants, so that they would be prepared for this day.
