OET (OET-LV) And_he_removed the_king DOM signet-ring_of_his from_under his/its_hand and_he_gave_it to_Haman the_son_of Hammedatha the_Agagite the_harasser_of the_Yəhūdī.

OET (OET-RV) This seemed sensible to the king so he removed his signet ring from his finger and he gave it[fn] to Haman (the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the adversary of the Jews).

3:10 Having the king’s signet ring enabled Haman to stamp the king’s seal (like a signature) onto the newly drafted laws.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 3:7–15: Haman plotted to kill the Jews

Haman went to the king and told him that the Jews in the empire did not obey the laws of the land, and so they all should be killed. The king authorized him to write an order saying that the Jews should be killed. Haman caused the order to be sent out everywhere in the kingdom on the thirteenth day of the first month of the next year. The order told the public to be ready to attack the Jews on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month.

3:10a

So the king removed the signet ring from his finger

the signet ring: This was a ring that the king wore on his finger which he used to press on the wax which sealed his letters. This would show that the document had been written with the king’s authority and so its message should be obeyed. By giving Haman this ring, the king authorized him to treat the Jews in any way he wished.

3:10b

and gave it to Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.

Agagite: See note on 3:1a.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יָּ֧סַר הַ⁠מֶּ֛לֶךְ אֶת־טַבַּעְתּ֖⁠וֹ מֵ⁠עַ֣ל יָד֑⁠וֹ וַֽ⁠יִּתְּנָ֗⁠הּ לְ⁠הָמָ֧ן

and,he_removed the=king DOM signet-ring_of,his from=under his/its=hand and,he,gave_it to,Haman

The implication is that Ahasuerus thought that Haman’s suggestion was a good idea and he agreed to it. You could say that explicitly. Alternate translation: [the king agreed that this was a good idea, so]

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

וַ⁠יָּ֧סַר הַ⁠מֶּ֛לֶךְ אֶת־טַבַּעְתּ֖⁠וֹ מֵ⁠עַ֣ל יָד֑⁠וֹ וַֽ⁠יִּתְּנָ֗⁠הּ לְ⁠הָמָ֧ן

and,he_removed the=king DOM signet-ring_of,his from=under his/its=hand and,he,gave_it to,Haman

Giving the ring to Haman showed that Haman could act on the king’s own authority. If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this explicitly. Alternate translation: [the king gave Haman the power to act on his authority to carry out the plan. To show that, he gave Haman the ring he wore that had his official seal on it]

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

אֶת־טַבַּעְתּ֖⁠וֹ

DOM signet-ring_of,his

This was a special ring that could be used to imprint the king’s official seal on a law or decree. This ring had the king’s name or mark on it. When he put a wax seal on important papers, he would press the mark onto the seal. If a paper had this mark on its seal, people would know that what was written on the paper was written with the king’s authority and had to be obeyed. You could describe this as “the ring he wore that had his official seal on it.”

בֶּֽן־הַמְּדָ֛תָא הָ⁠אֲגָגִ֖י

son_of Hammedatha the,Agagite

This information about Haman’s identity is repeated to stress that the king giving him the signet ring was an official legal act that transferred power to him. (In the same way, legal documents today often use a person’s full name and other identifying information.) If you repeat this information in your own translation, your readers should see this significance.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / distinguish

צֹרֵ֥ר הַ⁠יְּהוּדִֽים

enemy_of of,the_Jews

This phrase gives clarifying information about Haman. It means that he had become “the enemy of the Jews.”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

3:1-15 Haman’s hatred for Mordecai develops into a plot to kill all the Jewish people.
