Esther 4:14-16

Contemporary English Version

¹⁴ If you don't speak up now, we will somehow get help, but you and your family will be killed. It could be that you were made queen for a time like this!”

¹⁵ Esther sent a message to Mordecai, saying, ¹⁶ “Bring together all the Jews in Susa and tell them to go without eating for my sake! Don't eat or drink for three days and nights. My servant girls and I will do the same. Then I will go in to see the king, even if it means I must die.”
