Esther 9:10-12

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁰ the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammeda′tha, the enemy of the Jews; but they laid no hand on the plunder.

¹¹ That very day the number of those slain in Susa the capital was reported to the king. ¹² And the king said to Queen Esther, “In Susa the capital the Jews have slain five hundred men and also the ten sons of Haman. What then have they done in the rest of the king’s provinces! Now what is your petition? It shall be granted you. And what further is your request? It shall be fulfilled.”
