1 On that yawam (day), malak (king) Achashawarawash (Ahasuerus) nathan (give) the bayath (house) of Haman (Haman), the Yahawaday (Jews)’ tzarar (enemy), to Asathar (Esther) the malakah (queen). Maradakay (Mordecai) bawaa (bring) panayam (face) the malak (king); for Asathar (Esther) had nagad (told) what he was to her.
2 The malak (king) sawar (took) off his tabaith (ring), which he ibar (pass over/through) taken from Haman (Haman), and nathan (give) it to Maradakay (Mordecai). Asathar (Esther) shawam (place / establish / appoint) Maradakay (Mordecai) over the bayath (house) of Haman (Haman).
3 Asathar (Esther) dabar (word / matter) yet again panayam (face) the malak (king), and napal (fall / be cast down) down at his ragal (feet / foot), and begged him with bakah (tears) to ibar (pass over/through) away the rai (mischief) of Haman (Haman) the agagay (agagite), and his machashabah (device) that he had chashab (devised) against the Yahawaday (Jews).
4 Then the malak (king) yashat (held) out to Asathar (Esther) the zahab (gold) scepter. So Asathar (Esther) qawam (rise up), and imad (stood) panayam (face) the malak (king).
5 She amar (said), “If it pleases the malak (king), and if I matzaa (have) found favor in his panayam (face), and the thing seem kashar (right) to the malak (king), and I am pleasing in his iyan (eye), let it be kathab (write) to shawab (turn) the saparayam (letters) machashabah (devised) by Haman (Haman), the ban (son) of Madathaa (Hammedatha) the agagay (agagite), which he kathab (write) to abad (destroy / perish) the Yahawaday (Jews) who are in all the malak (king) madayanawath (provinces).
6 For ayak (how) yakal (can) I endure to raah (see / saw) the rai (evil) that would matzaa (come) to my im (nation / people)? Ayak (how) yakal (can) I endure to raah (see / saw) the abadan (destruction) of my relatives?”
7 Then malak (king) Achashawarawash (Ahasuerus) amar (said) to Asathar (Esther) the malakah (queen) and to Maradakay (Mordecai) the Yahawaday (Jew), “See, I nathan (give) given Asathar (Esther) the bayath (house) of Haman (Haman), and him they have hanged on the itz (gallows), because he shalach (send) his yad (hand) on the Yahawaday (Jews).
8 Kathab (write) also to the Yahawaday (Jews), as it pleases you, in the malak (king) sham (name), and chatham (seal) it with the malak (king) tabaith (ring); for the kathab (write) which is kathab (write) in the malak (king) sham (name), and chatham (sealed) with the malak (king) tabaith (ring), may not be shawab (turn) by any man.”
9 Then the malak (king) saparay (scribes) were qaraa (called) at that ith (time), in the shalayashay (third) chadash (month) Sayawan (Sivan), on the isharayam (twenty) - third day of the chadash (month); and it was kathab (write) according to all that Maradakay (Mordecai) tzawah (commanded) to the Yahawaday (Jews), and to the satraps, and the pachawath (governors) and sharay (princes) of the madayanawath (provinces) which are from Hadaw (India) to Kawash (Ethiopia), one maah (hundred) isharayam (twenty) - shabai (seven) madayanawath (provinces), to every madayanah (province) according to its kathab (write), and to every im (nation / people) in their lashawan (tongue / language), and to the Yahawaday (Jews) in their kathab (write), and in their lashawan (tongue / language).
10 He kathab (write) in the sham (name) of malak (king) Achashawarawash (Ahasuerus), and chatham (sealed) it with the malak (king) tabaith (ring), and shalach (send) saparayam (letters) by courier on horseback, rakab (riding) on royal horses that were ban (son) from swift steeds.
11 In those letters, the malak (king) nathan (give) the Yahawaday (Jews) who were in every iyar (city) to qahal (gather) themselves together, and to defend their napash (soul), to shamad (destroy), to harag (kill), and to cause to abad (destroy / perish), all the chayal (wealth / substance / capability / valor) of the im (nation / people) and madayanah (province) that would tzawar (assault) them, their little tap (ones) and nashayam (women), and to plunder their bazaz (possessions),
12 On achad (one) yawam (day) in all the madayanawath (provinces) of malak (king) Achashawarawash (Ahasuerus), on the thirteenth day of the shanayam (two) chadash (month), which is the chadash (month) Adar (Adar).
13 A parashagan (copy) of the letter, that the dath (decree) should be nathan (give) out in every madayanah (province), was galah (published) to all the imayam (peoples), that the Yahawaday (Jews) should be ithawad (ready) for that yawam (day) to naqam (avenge) themselves on their ayab (enemy).
14 So the couriers who rakab (rode) on royal horses yatzaa (go out / come out) out, hastened and dachap (pressed) on by the malak (king) commandment. The dabar (word / matter) was nathan (give) out in the citadel of Shawashan (Susa).
15 Maradakay (Mordecai) yatzaa (go out / come out) out of the panayam (face) of the malak (king) in malakawath (royal) labawash (clothing) of thakalath (blue) and chawar (white), and with a gadawal (very great/important/mighty) itarah (crown) of zahab (gold), and with a robe of bawatz (fine) linen and aragaman (purple); and the iyar (city) of Shawashan (Susa) tzahal (shouted) and was shamach (glad).
16 The Yahawaday (Jews) had awarah (light), shamachah (gladness), shamachah (joy), and honor.
17 In every madayanah (province), and in every iyar (city), wherever the malak (king) commandment and his dabar (word / matter) nagai (came), the Yahawaday (Jews) had shashawan (gladness), shamachah (joy), a mashathah (feast), and a tawab (good / proper function) yawam (day). Many from among the imay (peoples) of the aratz (Earth/land) yahad (became) Yahawaday (Jews); for the pachad (fear / dread) of the mathayahadayam (jews) was napal (fall / be cast down) on them.
