10 Então o rei tirou seu anel de sua mão, e o deu a Hamã filho de Hamedata agageu, inimigo dos judeus,
11 E o rei disse a Hamã: Essa prata te seja dada; e também esse povo, para fazeres dele o que quiseres.
12 Então chamaram aos escrivães do rei no primeiro mês, no [dia] treze do mesmo, e foi escrito conforme a tudo o que Hamã mandou, aos príncipes do rei, e aos governadores que havia sobre cada província, e aos líderes de cada povo, a cada província conforme sua escrita, e a cada povo conforme sua língua; em nome do rei Assuero foi escrito, e com o anel do rei foi selado.
13 E foram enviadas cartas por meio de mensageiros a todas as províncias do rei, para destruírem, matarem, e exterminarem a todos os judeus, desde o menino até o velho, crianças e mulheres em um dia, no [dia] treze do décimo segundo mês (que é o mês de Adar), e para saquearem suas posses.
