Light dawns for the righteous, gladness for the upright in heart.

When the righteous thrive, a city rejoices, and when the wicked die, there is joyful shouting.

When Mordecai learned all that had occurred, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth and ashes, went into the middle of the city, and cried loudly and bitterly.He only went as far as the King’s Gate, since the law prohibited anyone wearing sackcloth from entering the King’s Gate.There was great mourning among the Jewish people in every province where the king’s command and edict came. They fasted, wept, and lamented, and many lay on sackcloth and ashes.

Lord, You light my lamp; my God illuminates my darkness.

For His anger lasts only a moment, but His favor, a lifetime. Weeping may spend the night, but there is joy in the morning.When I was secure, I said,“ I will never be shaken.”Lord, when You showed Your favor, You made me stand like a strong mountain; when You hid Your face, I was terrified.Lord, I called to You; I sought favor from my Lord:“ What gain is there in my death, if I go down to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your truth?Lord, listen and be gracious to me; Lord, be my helper.”You turned my lament into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,

Your singing will be like that on the night of a holy festival, and your heart will rejoice like one who walks to the music of a flute, going up to the mountain of the Lord, to the Rock of Israel.And the Lord will make the splendor of His voice heard and reveal His arm striking in angry wrath and a flame of consuming fire, in driving rain, a torrent, and hailstones.

“ Go and assemble all the Jews who can be found in Susa and fast for me. Don’t eat or drink for three days, day or night. I and my female servants will also fast in the same way. After that, I will go to the king even if it is against the law. If I perish, I perish.”

Light shines in the darkness for the upright. He is gracious, compassionate, and righteous.

and the redeemed of the Lord will return and come to Zion with singing, crowned with unending joy. Joy and gladness will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee.

The path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, shining brighter and brighter until midday.But the way of the wicked is like the darkest gloom; they don’t know what makes them stumble.

They fought on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar and rested on the fourteenth, and it became a day of feasting and rejoicing.
