Esther 3:6

Read Full Chapter
And when he learned the identity of Mordecai’s people, he scorned the notion of laying hands on Mordecai alone. Instead, he sought to destroy all of Mordecai’s people, the Jews, throughout the kingdom of Xerxes.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But he scorned the thought of laying hands on Mordecai alone, for they had made known to him Mordecai’s people. Therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even Mordecai’s people.

And he thought{H5869} scorn{H959}{(H8799)} to lay{H7971}{(H8800)} hands{H3027} on Mordecai{H4782} alone; for they had shewed{H5046}{(H8689)} him the people{H5971} of Mordecai{H4782}: wherefore Haman{H2001} sought{H1245}{(H8762)} to destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} all the Jews{H3064} that were throughout the whole kingdom{H4438} of Ahasuerus{H325}, even the people{H5971} of Mordecai{H4782}.

The F.O.G Paraphrase
and it is contemptible in his eyes to put forth a hand on Mordecai by himself, for they have declared to him the people of Mordecai, and Haman seeketh to destroy all the Jews who are in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus—the people of Mordecai.
