Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, (though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them;)

contrary
CONTRARY, adjective [Latin , against.]
1. Opposite; adverse; moving against or in an opposite direction; as contrary winds.
2. Opposite; contradictory; not merely different, but inconsistent or repugnant.
The flesh lusteth against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other. Galatians 5:17.
This adjective, in many phrases, is to be treated grammatically as an adverb, or as an adjective referring to a sentence or affirmation; as, this happened contrary to my expectations. The word here really belongs to the affirmation or fact declared, this happened; for contrary does not, like an adverb, express the manner of happening, but that the fact itself was contrary to my expectation. According, agreeable, pursuant, antecedent, prior, anterior, etc., are often used in the like manner.
CONTRARY, noun
1. A thing that is contrary or of opposite qualities.
No contraries hold more antipathy, than I and such a knave.
2. A proposition contrary to another, or a fact contrary to what is alledged; as, this is stated to be a fact, but I will endeavor to show the contrary
On the contrary in opposition; on the other side.
To the contrary to an opposite purpose, or fact.
They did it, not for want of instruction to the contrary
He said it was just, but I told him to the contrary
CONTRARY, verb transitive To contradict or oppose.
