And the decree was issued in Susa the citadel.
15 Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king (G)in royal robes of blue and white, with a great golden crown[a] and (H)a robe of fine linen and purple, (I)and the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced. 16 The Jews had (J)light and gladness and joy and honor. 17 And in every province and in every city, wherever the king's command and his edict reached, there was gladness and joy among the Jews, a feast and (K)a holiday. (L)And many from the peoples of the country declared themselves Jews, (M)for fear of the Jews had fallen on them.

11 The king’s edict granted the Jews in every city the right to assemble and protect themselves; to destroy, kill and annihilate the armed men of any nationality or province who might attack them and their women and children,[a] and to plunder(A) the property of their enemies. 12 The day appointed for the Jews to do this in all the provinces of King Xerxes was the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar.(B) 13 A copy of the text of the edict was to be issued as law in every province and made known to the people of every nationality so that the Jews would be ready on that day(C) to avenge themselves on their enemies.
14 The couriers, riding the royal horses, went out, spurred on by the king’s command, and the edict was issued in the citadel of Susa.(D)

And many people of other nationalities became Jews because fear(L) of the Jews had seized them.(M)
