Esther 3:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ When Haman saw that ^(A)Mordecai neither bowed down nor paid homage to him, Haman was filled with rage. ⁶ But he ^[a]disdained to ^[b]lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him who the people of Mordecai were; therefore Haman ^(B)sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus.

⁷ In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, ^[c]Pur, that is the lot, was ^(C)cast before Haman from day to day and from month to month, ^[d]until the twelfth month, that is ^(D)the month Adar.
