Esther 4:16-17
4:16 “Go, assemble all the Jews who are found in Susa and fast in my behalf. Don’t eat and don’t drink for three days, night or day. My female attendants and I
will also fast in the same way. Afterward I will go to the king, even though it violates the law.
If I perish, I perish!”
4:17 So Mordecai set out to do everything that Esther had instructed him.
