1 When Mordecai4782 perceived3045 853 all3605 that834 was done,6213 Mordecai4782 rent7167 853 his clothes,899 and put on3847 sackcloth8242 with ashes,665 and went out3318 into the midst8432 of the city,5892 and cried2199 with a loud1419 and a bitter4751 cry;2201 2 And came935 even5704 before6440 the king's4428 gate:8179 for3588 none369 might enter935 into413 the king's4428 gate8179 clothed3830 with sackcloth.8242 3 And in every3605 province,4082 4082 whithersoever4725 834 the king's4428 commandment1697 and his decree1881 came,5060 there was great1419 mourning60 among the Jews,3064 and fasting,6685 and weeping,1065 and wailing;4553 and many7227 lay3331 in sackcloth8242 and ashes.665 4 So Esther's635 maids5291 and her chamberlains5631 came935 and told5046 it her. Then was the queen4436 exceedingly3966 grieved;2342 and she sent7971 raiment899 to clothe3847 853 Mordecai,4782 and to take away5493 his sackcloth8242 from4480 5921 him: but he received6901 it not.3808 5 Then called7121 Esther635 for Hatach,2047 one of the king's4428 chamberlains,4480 5631 whom834 he had appointed5975 to attend upon6440 her, and gave him a commandmen6680 to5921 Mordecai,4782 to know3045 what4100 it2088 was, and why5921 4100 it2088 was. 6 So Hatach2047 went forth3318 to413 Mordecai4782 unto413 the street7339 of the city,5892 which834 was before6440 the king's4428 gate.8179 7 And Mordecai4782 told5046 him of 853 all3605 that834 had happened7136 unto him, and853 of the sum6575 of the money3701 that834 Haman2001 had promised559 to pay8254 to5921 the king's4428 treasuries1595 for the Jews,3064 to destroy6 them. 8 Also he gave5414 him the copy6572 of the writing3791 of the decree1881 that834 was given5414 at Shushan7800 to destroy8045 them, to show7200 it unto 853 Esther,635 and to declare5046 it unto her, and to charge6680 her5921 that she should go in935 unto413 the king,4428 to make supplication2603 unto him, and to make request1245 before4480 6440 him for5921 her people.5971 9 And Hatach2047 came935 and told5046 Esther635 853 the words1697 of Mordecai.4782 10 Again Esther635 spoke559 unto Hatach,2047 and gave him commandment6680 unto413 Mordecai;4782 11 All3605 the king's4428 servants,5650 and the people5971 of the king's4428 provinces,4082 do know,3045 that834 whosoever,3605 834 whether834 man376 or woman,802 shall come935 unto413 the king4428 into413 the inner6442 court,2691 who834 is not3808 called,7121 there is one259 law1881 of his to put him to death,4191 except905 such to whom4480 834 the king4428 shall hold out3447 853 the golden2091 scepter,8275 that he may live:2421 but I589 have not3808 been called7121 to come in935 unto413 the king4428 these2088 thirty7970 days.3117 12 And they told5046 to Mordecai4782 853 Esther's635 words.1697 13 Then Mordecai4782 commanded559 to answer7725 413 Esther,635 Think1819 not408 with thyself5315 that thou shalt escape4422 in the king's4428 house,1004 more than all4480 3605 the Jews.3064 14 For3588 if518 thou altogether holdest thy peace2790 2790 at this2063 time,6256 then shall there enlargement7305 and deliverance2020 arise5975 to the Jews3064 from another place;4480 4725 312 but thou859 and thy father's1 house1004 shall be destroyed:6 and who4310 knoweth3045 whether518 thou art come5060 to the kingdom4438 for such a time6256 as this?2063 15 Then Esther635 bade559 them return7725 413 Mordecai4782 this answer, 16 Go,1980 gather together3664 853 all3605 the Jews3064 that are present4672 in Shushan,7800 and fast6684 ye for5921 me, and neither408 eat398 nor408 drink8354 three7969 days,3117 night3915 or day:3117 I589 also1571 and my maidens5291 will fast6684 likewise;3651 and so3651 will I go in935 unto413 the king,4428 which834 is not3808 according to the law:1881 and if834 I perish,6 I perish.6 17 So Mordecai4782 went his way,5674 and did6213 according to all3605 that834 Esther635 had commanded6680 him.5921 |

1 Quæ cum audisset Mardochæus, scidit vestimenta sua, et indutus est sacco, spargens cinerem capiti: et in platea mediæ civitatis voce magna clamabat, ostendens amaritudinem animi sui, 2 et hoc ejulatu usque ad fores palatii gradiens. Non enim erat licitum indutum sacco aulam regis intrare. 3 In omnibus quoque provinciis, oppidis, ac locis, ad quæ crudele regis dogma pervenerat, planctus ingens erat apud Judæos, jejunium, ululatus, et fletus, sacco et cinere multis pro strato utentibus. 4 Ingressæ autem sunt puellæ Esther et eunuchi, nuntiaveruntque ei. Quod audiens consternata est, et vestem misit, ut ablato sacco induerent eum: quam accipere noluit. 5 Accitoque Athach eunucho, quem rex ministrum ei dederat, præcepit ei ut iret ad Mardochæum, et disceret ab eo cur hoc faceret. 6 Egressusque Athach, ivit ad Mardochæum stantem in platea civitatis, ante ostium palatii: 7 qui indicavit ei omnia quæ acciderant: quomodo Aman promisisset ut in thesauros regis pro Judæorum nece inferret argentum. 8 Exemplar quoque edicti, quod pendebat in Susan, dedit ei, ut reginæ ostenderet, et moneret eam ut intraret ad regem et deprecaretur eum pro populo suo. 9 Regressus Athach, nuntiavit Esther omnia quæ Mardochæus dixerat. 10 Quæ respondit ei, et jussit ut diceret Mardochæo: 11 Omnes servi regis, et cunctæ, quæ sub ditione ejus sunt, norunt provinciæ, quod sive vir, sive mulier non vocatus, interius atrium regis intraverit, absque ulla cunctatione statim interficiatur: nisi forte rex auream virgam ad eum tetenderit pro signo clementiæ, atque ita possit vivere. Ego igitur quomodo ad regem intrare potero, quæ triginta jam diebus non sum vocata ad eum? 12 Quod cum audisset Mardochæus, 13 rursum mandavit Esther, dicens: Ne putes quod animam tuam tantum liberes, quia in domo regis es præ cunctis Judæis: 14 si enim nunc silueris, per aliam occasionem liberabuntur Judæi: et tu, et domus patris tui, peribitis. Et quis novit utrum idcirco ad regnum veneris, ut in tali tempore parareris? 15 Rursumque Esther hæc Mardochæo verba mandavit: 16 Vade, et congrega omnes Judæos quos in Susan repereris, et orate pro me. Non comedatis et non bibatis tribus diebus et tribus noctibus: et ego cum ancillis meis similiter jejunabo, et tunc ingrediar ad regem contra legem faciens, non vocata, tradensque me morti et periculo. 17 Ivit itaque Mardochæus, et fecit omnia quæ ei Esther præceperat. |
