9 And in the twelfth month, that is, the month of Aʹdar,+ on the thirteenth day of it, when the king’s word and his law came due to be performed,+ on the day for which the enemies of the Jews had waited to domineer over them, there was even a turning to the contrary,* in that the Jews themselves domineered over those hating them.+

13 Accordingly Esther said: “If to the king it does seem good,+ let it be granted tomorrow also to the Jews that are in Shuʹshan to do according to the law of today;+ and let the ten sons of Haʹman be hanged upon the stake.”+

15 And the Jews that were in Shuʹshan proceeded to congregate themselves also on the fourteenth+ day of the month Aʹdar, and they got to kill in Shuʹshan three hundred men; but on the plunder they did not lay their hand.+
