¹⁸ But the Jews who were in Susa gathered ^(A)on the thirteenth day and on the fourteenth, and rested ^(B)on the fifteenth day, making that a day of feasting and gladness. ¹⁹ Therefore the Jews of the villages, who live in ^(C)the rural towns, hold the fourteenth day of the month of Adar as a day for gladness and feasting, as ^(D)a holiday, and ^(E)as a day on which they send gifts of food to one another.
