Esther 4:10-12

10Then 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 the inner court to the king, who has not been called, he has but one law: put all to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter, that he may live. Yet I myself have not been called to go in to the king these thirty days.”

12So they told Mordecai Esther’s words.
