which had been carried away
<01540> (8717)

scorn
<0959> (8799)

to lay
<07971> (8800)

hands
<03027>

on Mordecai
<04782>

alone; for they had shewed
<05046> (8689)

him the people
<05971>

of Mordecai
<04782>_:

wherefore Haman
<02001>

sought
<01245> (8762)

to destroy
<08045> (8687)

all the Jews
<03064>

that [were] throughout the whole kingdom

and dispersed
<06504> (8794)

among the people
<05971>

in all the provinces
<04082>

of thy kingdom
<04438>_;

and their laws
<01881>

[are] diverse
<08138> (8802)

from all people
<05971>_;

neither keep
<06213> (8802)

they the king's
<04428>

laws
<01881>_:

therefore it [is] not for the king's

to suffer
<03240> (8687)

them. {for the...: Heb. meet or, equal, etc}
