Esther 8:15-17

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁵ Then Mordecai left the king's palace. He was wearing royal clothes that were purple and white. He had a large gold crown on his head. He wore a beautiful coat made from purple linen. The people in Susa city shouted with joy because of the new law.

¹⁶ All the Jews were very happy. Everyone respected them and gave them honour. ¹⁷ When the new law reached every region and every city, the Jews became very happy. The other people who lived there were now afraid of the Jews. Because of that, many people said that they themselves had become Jews.
