Esther 3:9-11
English Standard Version
9 If it please the king, let it be decreed that they be destroyed, and I will pay 10,000 talents[a] of silver into the hands of those who have charge of the king's business, that they may put it into the king's treasuries.” 10 (A)So the king took his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman (B)the Agagite, the son of Hammedatha, (C)the enemy of the Jews. 11 And the king said to Haman, “The money is given to you, the people also, to do with them as it seems good to you.”
