Esther 7:4 — Bruhman Translator's Bible

Esther 7:4⥂
_KJV:
For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king’s damage.
_BSB:
For my people and I have been sold out to destruction, death, and annihilation. If we had merely been sold as menservants and maidservants, I would have remained silent, because no such distress would justify burdening the king.”
_Hebrew:
כִּ֤י נִמְכַּ֙רְנוּ֙ אֲנִ֣י וְ עַמִּ֔י לְ הַשְׁמִ֖יד לַ הֲר֣וֹג וּ לְ אַבֵּ֑ד וְ֠אִלּוּ לַ עֲבָדִ֨ים וְ לִ שְׁפָח֤וֹת נִמְכַּ֙רְנוּ֙ הֶחֱרַ֔שְׁתִּי כִּ֣י אֵ֥ין הַ צָּ֛ר שֹׁוֶ֖ה בְּ נֵ֥זֶק הַ מֶּֽלֶךְ ׃ ס
