Esther 8:3-8

And Esther
<0635>
spake
<01696> (8762)
yet again
<03254> (8686)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
and fell down
<05307> (8799)
at
<06440>
his feet
<07272>_,
and besought
<02603> (8691)
him with tears
<01058> (8799)
to put away
<05674> (8687)
the mischief
<07451>
of Haman
<02001>
the Agagite
<091>_,
and his device
<04284>
that he had devised
<02803> (8804)
against the Jews
<03064>_.
{and besought...: Heb. and she wept, and besought him}
Then the king
<04428>
held out
<03447> (8686)
the golden
<02091>
sceptre
<08275>
toward Esther
<0635>_.
So Esther
<0635>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
If it please
<02896>
the king
<04428>_,
and if I have found
<04672> (8804)
favour
<02580>
in his sight
<06440>_,
and the thing
<01697>
[seem] right
<03787> (8804)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
and I [be] pleasing
<02896>
in his eyes
<05869>_,
let it be written
<03789> (8735)
to reverse
<07725> (8687)
the letters
<05612>
devised
<04284>
by Haman
<02001>
the son
<01121>
of Hammedatha
<04099>
the Agagite
<091>_,
which he wrote
<03789> (8804)
to destroy
<06> (8763)
the Jews
<03064>
which [are] in all the king's
<04428>
provinces
<04082>_:
{devised: Heb. the device} {which he...: or, who wrote}
For how
<0349>
can I endure
<03201> (8799)
to see
<07200> (8804)
the evil
<07451>
that shall come
<04672> (8799)
unto my people
<05971>_?
or how
<0349>
can I endure
<03201> (8799)
to see
<07200> (8804)
the destruction
<013>
of my kindred
<04138>_?
{endure...: Heb. be able that I may see}
Then the king
<04428>
Ahasuerus
<0325>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Esther
<0635>
the queen
<04436>
and to Mordecai
<04782>
the Jew
<03064>_,
Behold, I have given
<05414> (8804)
Esther
<0635>
the house
<01004>
of Haman
<02001>_,
and him they have hanged
<08518> (8804)
upon the gallows
<06086>_,
because he laid
<07971> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
upon the Jews
<03064>_.
Write
<03789> (8798)
ye also for the Jews
<03064>_,
as it liketh
<02896>
you
<05869>_,
in the king's
<04428>
name
<08034>_,
and seal
<02856> (8798)
[it] with the king's
<04428>
ring
<02885>_:
for the writing
<03791>
which is written
<03789> (8737)
in the king's
<04428>
name
<08034>_,
and sealed
<02856> (8737)
with the king's
<04428>
ring
<02885>_,
may no man reverse
<07725> (8687)_.
