Esta 3:13

Barua zilipelekwa na tarishi katika majimbo yote ya mfalme zikiwa na amri ya kuharibu, kuua na kuangamiza Wayahudi wote, wadogo kwa wakubwa, wanawake na watoto wadogo, siku moja, yaani siku ya kumi na tatu ya mwezi wa kumi na mbili, ndio mwezi wa Adari, na pia kuteka nyara vitu vyao.

And the letters were sent by posts into all the king’s provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.
