Esther 3:9-11
Evangelical Heritage Version
9 If the king agrees, a directive should be written to destroy them. I will weigh out ten thousand talents[a] of silver to the treasury of the king for those who carry out this work.”
10 The king took his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the man opposing the Jews. 11 The king said to Haman, “The silver will be given to you,[b] as well as the people. Do with them whatever seems good to you.”
