Esther 9:21-23

EasyEnglish Bible

²¹ He told them that they should have a holiday on the 14th and 15th days of Adar every year. ²² They should do that to remember the time when they became safe from their enemies. That was the month when they became happy and they were no longer sad. They should eat a feast and they should send gifts of food to each other to show their joy. They should also give gifts to poor people.

²³ The Jews agreed to do everything that Mordecai had written in the letters. They had a feast every year to remember what had happened.
