Esther 9:22 in Context — Esther 9
20 E Mardoqueu escreveu estas coisas, e enviou cartas a todos os judeus que havia em todas as províncias do rei Assuero, próximos e distantes,
21 Ordenando-lhes que comemorassem o décimo quarto [dia] do mês de Adar, e o décimo quinto do mesmo, todos os anos.
22 Como os dias em que os judeus tiveram repouso de seus inimigos; e o mês que tornou para eles de tristeza em alegria, e de luto em dia de festejo; para que os fizessem dias de banquetes e de alegria, e de mandarem presentes uns aos outros, e de doações aos pobres.
23 E os judeus aceitaram fazer o que já tinham começado assim como o que Mardoqueu havia lhes escrito.
24 Porque Hamã filho de Hamedata, o agagita, inimigo de todos os judeus, tinha planejado destruir todos os judeus, e lançou Pur, isto é, sorte, para os oprimir e os destruir.
