Esther 3:5-8

  5 H2001 And when Haman H7200 [H8799] saw H4782 that Mordecai H3766 [H8802] bowed H7812 [H8693] not, nor did pay him honour H2001 , then was Haman H4390 [H8735] full H2534 of wrath.

  6 H5869 H959 [H8799] And he disdained H7971 [H8800] to lay H3027 hands H4782 on Mordecai H5046 [H8689] alone; for they had made known to H5971 him the people H4782 of Mordecai H2001 : therefore Haman H1245 [H8762] sought H8045 [H8687] to destroy H3064 all the Jews H4438 that were throughout the whole kingdom H325 of Ahasuerus H5971 , even the people H4782 of Mordecai.

  7 H7223 In the first H2320 month H2320 , that is, the month H5212 Nisan H8147 H6240 , in the twelfth H8141 year H4428 of king H325 Ahasuerus H5307 [H8689] , they cast H6332 Pur H1486 , that is, the lot H6440 , before H2001 Haman H3117 from day H3117 to day H2320 , and from month H2320 to month H8147 H6240 , to the twelfth H2320 month, that is, the month H143 Adar.

  8 H2001 And Haman H559 [H8799] said H4428 to king H325 Ahasuerus H3426 , There is H259 a certain H5971 people H6340 [H8794] scattered abroad H6504 [H8794] and dispersed H5971 among the people H4082 in all the provinces H4438 of thy kingdom H1881 ; and their laws H8138 [H8802] are different H5971 from all people H6213 [H8802] ; neither keep H4428 they the king's H1881 laws H4428 : therefore it is not for the king's H7737 [H8802] profit H3240 [H8687] to allow them to remain.
