7 And Mordecai told him all that had happened to him, and athe sum of money that Haman had promised to pay into the king’s treasuries to destroy the Jews.
8 He also gave him aa copy of the written decree for their destruction, which was given at1 Shushan, that he might show it to Esther and explain it to her, and that he might command her to go in to the king to make supplication to him and plead before him for her people.
9 So Hathach returned and told Esther the words of Mordecai.
10 Then Esther spoke to Hathach, and gave him a command for Mordecai:
11 “All the king’s servants and the people of the king’s provinces know that any man or woman who goes into athe inner court to the king, who has not been called, bhe has but one law: put all to death, except the one cto whom the king holds out the golden scepter, that he may live. Yet I myself have not been dcalled to go in to the king these thirty days.”
12 So they told Mordecai Esther’s words.
