OET (OET-RV) A copy of the decree was to be included as law in every province and to be displayed to all the people so that the Jews could be prepared to fight back against their enemies on that day.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 8:1–17: Xerxes allowed the Jews to protect themselves

After Haman’s death, the king gave Esther everything that had belonged to Haman and made Mordecai the chief official in the land. Esther asked the king to cancel Haman’s order to kill the Jews. The king instead permitted her and Mordecai to send letters in his name allowing the Jews to defend themselves and kill their enemies. The news of this order brought great joy to the Jews.

Paragraph 8:9–14

There are many similarities between this passage and the section about Haman’s plot to kill the Jews. You should compare this passage with 3:12–15.

8:13a

A copy of the text of the edict was to be issued in every province

A copy of the text of the edict was to be issued in every province: This is identical to 3:14a. See notes on that verse.

8:13b

and published to all the people, so that the Jews would be ready on that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

avenge themselves on their enemies: The Jews were to be ready to take revenge on anyone who attacked them.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

פַּתְשֶׁ֣גֶן הַ⁠כְּתָ֗ב לְ⁠הִנָּ֤תֵֽן דָּת֙

copy_of of,the_writing [was]_to,be_given law

You can say this with an active form. Alternate translation: [the letter told the officials to proclaim this as a law]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בְּ⁠כָל־מְדִינָ֣ה וּ⁠מְדִינָ֔ה

in=all province and,province

This expression means “in each and every province.” Alternate translation: [in every single province]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

גָּל֖וּי לְ⁠כָל־הָ⁠עַמִּ֑ים

published to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples

You can say this with an active form. Alternate translation: [the letter told the officials in every single province to post copies where everyone could see them]

וְ⁠לִ⁠הְי֨וֹת הַיְּהוּדִ֤ים עֲתִידִים֙ לַ⁠יּ֣וֹם הַ⁠זֶּ֔ה

and,to,be (Some words not found in UHB: copy_of of,the_writing [was]_to,be_given law in=all province and,province published to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples and,to,be the,Jews ready for,day the=this to,avenge_themselves from,enemies_of,their )

Alternate translation: [that way the Jews would get ready to do what the letter said when the day came]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

לְ⁠הִנָּקֵ֖ם מֵ⁠אֹיְבֵי⁠הֶֽם

to,avenge_themselves from,enemies_of,their

This expression, “to take revenge from” another person, means to correct a wrong they have done. In this context, the phrase means to correct the wrong of the original law that gave people permission to kill the Jews. Alternate translation: [and fight back against their enemies]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

8:13 The Hebrew word translated to take revenge could also mean to establish justice. In situations where civil government could not exercise authority over all the parties involved in a conflict, this law would allow people who were attacked to establish justice by redressing wrongs committed against them.
