et ait: Si placet regi, et si inveni gratiam in oculis ejus, et deprecatio mea non ei videtur esse contraria, obsecro ut novis epistolis, veteres Aman litteræ, insidiatoris et hostis Judæorum, quibus eos in cunctis regis provinciis perire præceperat, corrigantur.
And said: If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and my request be not disagreeable to him, I beseech thee, that the former letters of Aman the traitor and enemy of the Jews, by which he commanded that they should be destroyed in all the king's provinces, may be reversed by new letters.
Et dic: si place ad rege, et si inveni gratia in oculos de illo, et deprecatione meo non ad illo vide se es contrario, obsecra ut novo epistolos, veteri Amane litteras, de insidiatore et hoste de Iudaeos, ad que illos in cuncta de rege provincias peri praecipie, corrige.
