Y díjole: La plata propuesta sea para ti, y asimismo el pueblo, para que hagas de él lo que bien te pareciere.
Et le roi dit à Haman: L'argent t'est donné, et ce peuple aussi; fais-en ce que tu voudras.
E il re disse ad Haman: Quell’argento ti è rimesso in dono; e pur sia fatto a quel popolo come ti parrà bene.
E disse o rei a Hamã: Essa prata te é dada como também esse povo, para fazeres dele o que bem parecer aos teus olhos.
