Esther 9:3

The Jews Destroy Their Enemies

2In each of the provinces of King Xerxes, the Jews assembled in their cities to attack those who sought to harm them. No man could withstand them, because the fear of them had fallen upon all peoples.3And all the officials of the provinces, the satraps, the governors, and the king’s administrators helped the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai had fallen upon them.4For Mordecai exercised great power in the palace, and his fame spread throughout the provinces as he became more and more powerful.
