Esther:8:3-6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And Esther spake yet again before the king ,
and fell down at his feet ,
and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite ,
and his device that he had devised against the Jews .
*
Then the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther .
So Esther arose ,
and stood before the king ,
*
And said ,
If it please the king ,
and if I have found favour in his sight ,
and the thing seem right before the king ,
and I be pleasing in his eyes ,
let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite ,
which he wrote to destroy the Jews which are in all the kings provinces :
*
For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come unto my people ?
or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred ?
