Esther 4:14-17

4:14

For if thou altogether
<02790> (8687)

holdest thy peace
<02790> (8686)

at this time
<06256>_,

[then] shall there enlargement
<07305>

and deliverance
<02020>

arise
<05975> (8799)

to the Jews
<03064>

from another
<0312>

place
<04725>_;

but thou and thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>

shall be destroyed
<06> (8799)_:

and who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

whether thou art come
<05060> (8689)

to the kingdom
<04438>

for [such] a time
<06256>

as this? {enlargement: Heb. respiration}

4:15

Then Esther
<0635>

bade
<0559> (8799)

[them] return
<07725> (8687)

Mordecai
<04782>

[this answer],

4:16

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

gather together
<03664> (8798)

all the Jews
<03064>

that are present
<04672> (8737)

in Shushan
<07800>_,

and fast
<06684> (8798)

ye for me, and neither eat
<0398> (8799)

nor drink
<08354> (8799)

three
<07969>

days
<03117>_,

night
<03915>

or day
<03117>_:

I also and my maidens
<05291>

will fast
<06684> (8799)

likewise; and so
<03651>

will I go
<0935> (8799)

in unto the king
<04428>_,

which [is] not according to the law
<01881>_:

and if I perish
<06> (8804)_,

I perish
<06> (8804)_.

{present: Heb. found}

4:17

So Mordecai
<04782>

went his way
<05674> (8799)_,

and did
<06213> (8799)

according to all that Esther
<0635>

had commanded
<06680> (8765)

him. {went...: Heb. passed}
