Esther 8:3 YLT

¹  On that day hath the king Ahasuerus given to Esther the queen the house of Haman, adversary of the Jews, and Mordecai hath come in before the king, for Esther hath declared what he 'is' to her,

²  and the king turneth aside his signet, that he hath caused to pass away from Haman, and giveth it to Mordecai, and Esther setteth Mordecai over the house of Haman.

³  And Esther addeth, and speaketh before the king, and falleth before his feet, and weepeth, and maketh supplication to him, to cause the evil of Haman the Agagite to pass away, and his device that he had devised against the Jews;

⁴  and the king holdeth out to Esther the golden sceptre, and Esther riseth, and standeth before the king,

⁵  and saith, 'If to the king 'it be' good, and if I have found grace before him, and the thing hath been right before the king, and I 'be' good in his eyes, let it be written to bring back the letters -- a device of Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite -- that he wrote to destroy the Jews who 'are' in all provinces of the king,
