Esther 4:15-17

15Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai,

16“Go, gather all the Jews who are found in Susa, and fast for me; 1do not eat or drink for 2three days, night or day. I and my attendants also will fast in the same way. And then I will go in to the king, which is not in accordance with the law; and if I perish, I perish.”

17So Mordecai went away and did just as Esther had commanded him.
