Esther 8:6-8
Common English Bible
6 How can I bear to watch the terrible evil about to sweep over my people? And how can I bear to watch others destroy my own family?”
Mordecai writes a new law
7 King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, “Look, I’ve given Esther everything Haman owned. And Haman himself my servants have impaled on the pole because he planned to attack the Jews. 8 So you yourselves write to the Jews whatever you like in the name of the king and seal the letters with the king’s royal ring. Anything written in the name of the king and sealed with the king’s royal ring can’t be called back.”
