Esther 9:26-28

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁶ Therefore, they called these days Purim (from the name, Pur). And because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen besides this, and of that which had come unto them,

²⁷ the Jews also ordained and promised —for them and for their seed, and for all that joined unto them —that they would not fail to observe these two days every year, according to their writing and according to their season,

²⁸ and that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation and every family and every province and every city. And these days of Purim should not fail among the Jews, and the memorial of them should not perish from their seed.
