H4782
When Mordecai
H3045 [H8804]
perceived
H6213 [H8738]
all that was done,
H4782
Mordecai
H7167 [H8799]
tore
H899
his clothes,
H3847 [H8799]
and put on
H8242
sackcloth
H665
with ashes,
H3318 [H8799]
and went out
H8432
into the midst
H5892
of the city,
H2199 [H8799]
and cried
H1419
with a loud
H4751
and a bitter
H2201
outcry;
2
H935 [H8799]
And came
H6440
even at the face of
H4428
the king's
H8179
gate:
H935 [H8800]
for none might enter
H4428
into the king's
H8179
gate
H3830
clothed
H8242
with sackcloth.
3
H4082
And in every province,
H4725
wherever
H4428
the king's
H1697
commandment
H1881
and his decree
H5060 [H8688]
came,
H1419
there was great
H60
mourning
H3064
among the Judeans,
H6685
and fasting,
H1065
and weeping,
H4553
and wailing;
H7227
and many
H3331 [H8714]
lay
H8242
in sackcloth
H665
and ashes.
4
H635
So Esther's
H5291
damsels
H5631
and her chamberlains
H935 [H8799]
came
H5046 [H8686]
and told
H4436
it to her. Then was the queen
H3966
exceedingly
H2342 [H8698]
grieved;
H7971 [H8799]
and she sent
H899
raiment
H3847 [H8687]
to clothe
H4782
Mordecai,
H5493 [H8687]
and to take away
H8242
his sackcloth
H6901 [H8765]
from him: but he accepted it not.
5
H7121 [H8799]
Then called
H635
Esther
H2047
for Hatach,
H4428
one of the king's
H5631
chamberlains,
H5975 [H8689]
whom he had appointed
H6440
to attend
H6680 [H8762]
upon her, and gave him a commandment
H4782
to Mordecai,
H3045 [H8800]
to learn what it was, and why it was.
6
H2047
So Hatach
H3318 [H8799]
went forth
H4782
to Mordecai
H7339
to the street
H5892
of the city,
H6440
which was at the face of
H4428
the king's
H8179
gate.
7
H4782
And Mordecai
H5046 [H8686]
told
H7136 [H8804]
him all that had happened
H6575
to him, and of the sum
H3701
of the money
H2001
that Haman
H559 [H8804]
had promised
H8254 [H8800]
to pay
H4428
to the king's
H1595
treasuries
H3064
for the Judeans,
H6 [H8763]
to destroy them.
8
H5414 [H8804]
Also he gave
H6572
him the copy
H3791
of the writing
H1881
of the decree
H5414 [H8738]
that was given
H7800
at Shushan
H8045 [H8687]
to desolate
H7200 [H8687]
them, to show
H635
it to Esther,
H5046 [H8687]
and to tell
H6680 [H8763]
it to her, and to charge
H935 [H8800]
her that she should go in
H4428
to the king,
H2603 [H8692]
to ask for favour
H1245 [H8763]
from him, and to make request
H6440
at the face of
H5971
him for her people.
9
H2047
And Hatach
H935 [H8799]
came
H5046 [H8686]
and told
H635
Esther
H1697
the words
H4782
of Mordecai.
10
H635
Again Esther
H559 [H8799]
spoke
H2047
to Hatach,
H6680 [H8762]
and gave him commandment
H4782
to Mordecai;
11
H4428
All the king's
H5650
servants,
H5971
and the people
H4428
of the king's
H4082
provinces,
H3045 [H8802]
do know,
H376
that whoever, whether man
H802
or woman,
H935 [H8799]
shall come
H4428
to the king
H6442
into the inner
H2691
court,
H7121 [H8735]
who is not called,
H259
there is one
H1881
law
H4191 [H8687]
of his to put him to death,
H905
except
H4428
him to whom the king
H3447 [H8686]
shall hold out
H2091
the golden
H8275
sceptre,
H2421 [H8804]
that he may live:
H7121 [H8738]
but I have not been called
H935 [H8800]
to come in
H4428
to the king
H7970
these thirty
H3117
days.
13
H4782
Then Mordecai
H559 [H8799]
commanded
H7725 [H8687]
to answer
H635
Esther,
H1819 [H8762]
Think
H5315
not with thyself
H4422 [H8736]
that thou shalt escape
H4428
in the king's
H1004
house,
H3064
more than all the Judeans.
14
H2790 [H8687]
For if thou shalt altogether
H2790 [H8686]
hold thy peace
H6256
at this time,
H7305
then shall there relief
H2020
and deliverance
H5975 [H8799]
arise
H3064
to the Judeans
H312
from another
H4725
place;
H1
but thou and thy father's
H1004
house
H6 [H8799]
shall be destroyed:
H3045 [H8802]
and who knoweth
H5060 [H8689]
whether thou hast come
H4438
to the kingdom
H6256
for such a time as this?
16
H3212 [H8798]
Go,
H3664 [H8798]
gather
H3064
all the Judeans
H4672 [H8737]
that are present
H7800
in Shushan,
H6684 [H8798]
and fast
H398 [H8799]
ye for me, and neither eat
H8354 [H8799]
nor drink
H7969
three
H3117
days,
H3915
night
H3117
or day:
H5291
I also and my damsels
H6684 [H8799]
will fast
H3651
likewise; and so
H935 [H8799]
will I go
H4428
in to the king,
H1881
which is not according to the law:
H6 [H8804]
and if I perish,
H6 [H8804]
I perish.
