Esther 8:5-6

And she said, If it is the king's pleasure and if I have his approval and this thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing to him, then let letters be sent giving orders against those which Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, sent out for the destruction of the Jews in all divisions of the kingdom: For how is it possible for me to see the evil which is to overtake my nation? how may I see the destruction of my people?
