主即將我之哀哭、變為踴躍、使我解脫麻衣、衣被喜樂、

迨主援爾脫於患難、不復煩惱、不復遭督催而作苦工、因而獲安息、

故在外州各邑之猶大人、或作故居無城垣之鄉里之猶大人於亞達月十四日、設筵喜樂、以為佳日、彼此餽禮、

惟欲我二人念貧者、我亦殷勤為此矣、○

我誠告爾、爾曹將哭且哀、而世將樂、爾將憂、然爾之憂必轉為樂、婦將產則憂、以其期至、然產子後、不復憶其苦、因喜有人生於世也、如是爾今憂、我復將見爾、爾心則樂、且爾之樂、無人能奪之、

惟盡力施濟、或作取盛於杯盤者以施於人則於爾無不潔矣、

正月十三日、遂召王之繕寫、循哈曼所囑、以各州各族之文字方言、託亞哈隨魯王之名書詔、傳於各州之大臣、方伯、與各族之族長、各民之民長、並以王之指環印之、以詔付驛卒、傳於各州、命將猶大人、無論老少、嬰孩、婦女、在一日內、在十二月、即亞達月十三日、盡翦除、殺戮、剿滅、並取其貨財、
