Ester 3:12

12 No dia treze do primeiro mês, chamaram os secretários do rei e, segundo tudo o que Hamã havia ordenado, se escreveu aos sátrapas do rei, aos governadores de todas as províncias e aos chefes de cada povo. A ordem devia ser endereçada a cada província no seu próprio modo de escrever e a cada povo na sua própria língua. Foi escrita em nome do rei Assuero e selada com o anel-sinete do rei.

12 Then were the king's scribes called in the first month, on the thirteenth day thereof; and there was written according to all that Haman commanded unto the king's satraps, and to the governors that were over every province, and to the princes of every people, to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and it was sealed with the king's ring.
