Esther 3:6

וַיִּ֣בֶז בְּעֵינָ֗יו לִשְׁלֹ֤חַ יָד֙ בְּמָרְדֳּכַ֣י לְבַדּ֔וֹ כִּי הִגִּ֧ידוּ ל֛וֹ אֶת עַ֥ם מָרְדֳּכָ֖י וַיְבַקֵּ֣שׁ הָמָ֗ן לְהַשְׁמִ֛יד אֶת כָּל הַיְּהוּדִ֛ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בְּכָל מַלְכ֖וּת אֲחַשְׁוֵר֑וֹשׁ עַ֖ם מָרְדֳּכָֽי׃

King James Version (KJV)

And he thought scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had shewed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even the people of Mordecai.

Modern English

But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone. So, as they had made known to him the people of Mordecai, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus.
