36 Then we gave the laws+ of the king to the satraps*+ of the king and the governors+ beyond the River,*+ and they assisted the people+ and the house of the [true] God.

9 Accordingly the secretaries+ of the king were called at that time in the third month, that is, the month of Siʹvan,* on the twenty-third [day] of it; and writing went on according to all that Morʹde·cai commanded to the Jews and to the satraps+ and the governors and the princes of the jurisdictional districts that were from Inʹdi·a* to E·thi·oʹpi·a,* a hundred and twenty-seven jurisdictional districts,+ [to] each jurisdictional district in its own style of writing+ and [to] each people in its own tongue,+ and to the Jews in their own style of writing and in their own tongue.+

2 And Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar himself as king sent to assemble the satraps, the prefects+ and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the police magistrates+ and all the administrators of the jurisdictional districts to come to the inauguration+ of the image that Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar the king had set up.
