Maka titah baginda kepada permaisuri Ester: Di dalam kota Susan dipalu dan dibunuh orang Yahudi akan lima ratus orang laki-laki dan akan segala anak laki-laki Haman, entah apa perbuatan mereka itu dalam segala bahagian tanah raja yang lain-lain itu? Maka sekarang apa lagi permintaan adinda? maka ia itu akan dikaruniakan kepada adinda, dan apa lagi kehendak adinda? niscaya ia itu akan jadi.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king said unto Esther the queen,.... After the account had been brought in to him:

the Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace; the Targum adds, of the seed of Amalek:

and the ten sons of Haman: which very probably were all he had; though the Targum, in Esther 9:14, makes mention of seventy sons that Zeresh his wife fled with:

what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? that could not be said; but it might be concluded, that if so many were slain in Shushan, the number must be great in all the provinces:

now what is thy petition and it shall be granted thee: or "what is thy request further? and it shall be done"; if this was not sufficient and satisfactory, whatever else she should ask for should be granted.
