| 3 | καὶ εἶπεν μαρδοχαῖος παρὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐγένετο ταῦτα | |
| 3 | ἐμνήσθην γὰρ περὶ τοῦ ἐνυπνίου οὗ εἶδον περὶ τῶν λόγων τούτων οὐδὲ γὰρ παρῆλθεν ἀπ' αὐτῶν λόγος | |
| 3 | ἡ μικρὰ πηγή ἣ ἐγένετο ποταμὸς καὶ ἦν φῶς καὶ ἥλιος καὶ ὕδωρ πολύ εσθηρ ἐστὶν ὁ ποταμός ἣν ἐγάμησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἐποίησεν βασίλισσαν | |
| 3 | οἱ δὲ δύο δράκοντες ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ αμαν | |
| 3 | τὰ δὲ ἔθνη τὰ ἐπισυναχθέντα ἀπολέσαι τὸ ὄνομα τῶν ιουδαίων | |

| 3 | διὰ τοῦτο ἐποίησεν κλήρους δύο ἕνα τῷ λαῷ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἕνα πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσιν | |
| 3 | καὶ ἦλθον οἱ δύο κλῆροι οὗτοι εἰς ὥραν καὶ καιρὸν καὶ εἰς ἡμέραν κρίσεως ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσιν | |
| 3 | καὶ ἐμνήσθη ὁ θεὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐδικαίωσεν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ | |
| 3 | καὶ ἔσονται αὐτοῖς αἱ ἡμέραι αὗται ἐν μηνὶ αδαρ τῇ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῃ καὶ τῇ πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ αὐτοῦ μηνὸς μετὰ συναγωγῆς καὶ χαρᾶς καὶ εὐφροσύνης ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ κατὰ γενεὰς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ ισραηλ | |
| 3 | ἔτους τετάρτου βασιλεύοντος πτολεμαίου καὶ κλεοπάτρας εἰσήνεγκεν δωσίθεος ὃς ἔφη εἶναι ἱερεὺς καὶ λευίτης καὶ πτολεμαῖος ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ τὴν προκειμένην ἐπιστολὴν τῶν φρουραι ἣν ἔφασαν εἶναι καὶ ἑρμηνευκέναι λυσίμαχον πτολεμαίου τῶν ἐν ιερο |
