Esther 3:5-7
New American Standard Bible 1995
5 When Haman saw that (A)Mordecai neither bowed down nor paid homage to him, Haman was filled with rage. 6 But he [a]disdained to [b]lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him who the people of Mordecai were; therefore Haman (B)sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus.
7 In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, [c]Pur, that is the lot, was (C)cast before Haman from day to day and from month to month, [d]until the twelfth month, that is (D)the month Adar.
