Esther 4:15 In-Context

13 he sent her this warning: "Don't imagine that you are safer than any other Jew just because you are in the royal palace.
14 If you keep quiet at a time like this, help will come from heaven to the Jews, and they will be saved, but you will die and your father's family will come to an end. Yet who knows - maybe it was for a time like this that you were made queen!"
15 Esther sent Mordecai this reply:
16 "Go and get all the Jews in Susa together; hold a fast and pray for me. Don't eat or drink anything for three days and nights. My servant women and I will be doing the same. After that, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. If I must die for doing it, I will die."
17 Mordecai then left and did everything that Esther had told him to do.
