Esther 3:5 in Context — Esther 3

3 Então os servos do rei que estavam à porta do rei disseram a Mardoqueu: Por que transgrides o mandamento do rei?

4 Sucedeu, pois, que, tendo eles dito [isto] dia após dia, e ele não tendo lhes dado ouvidos, avisaram dele a Hamã, para verem se as palavras de Mardoqueu continuariam; porque ele tinha lhes declarado que era judeu.

5 Quando Hamã viu que Mardoqueu não se inclinava nem se prostrava diante dele, ele se encheu de furor.

6 Porém, tendo já sido informado do povo de Mardoqueu, ele achou pouco matar apenas Mardoqueu; então Hamã procurou destruir a todos os judeus, o povo de Mardoqueu, que havia no reino de Assuero.

7 No primeiro mês (que é o mês de Nisã), no décimo segundo ano do rei Assuero, foi lançada Pur, isto é, a sorte, diante de Hamã, para cada dia e para cada mês; e [a sorte indicou] o décimo segundo mês, o mês de Adar.
