Jeremiah 25:10Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012I will put an end to your parties and wedding celebrations; no one will grind grain or be here to light the lamps at night. See the chapter |
In these letters the king said: On the thirteenth day of Adar, the twelfth month, the Jews in every city and province will be allowed to get together and defend themselves. They may destroy any army that attacks them, and they may kill all their enemies, including women and children. They may also take everything that belongs to their enemies. A copy of this law is to be posted in every province and read by everyone.
