Esther 8:4-6

Living Bible

⁴ And again the king held out the golden scepter to Esther. So she arose and stood before him, ⁵ and said, “If it please Your Majesty, and if you love me, send out a decree reversing Haman’s order to destroy the Jews throughout the king’s provinces. ⁶ For how can I endure it, to see my people butchered and destroyed?”
