Mordekhai returned this answer to Esther - \"Do not suppose that you may take refuge in the king's palace from the doom of all the Jews. For if you remain silent at this hour, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another quarter - yet you, together with your father's house, shall be lost forever. And who can tell; might it not be for just such an hour as this that you rose to royalty?\" Esther returned this message to Mordekhai - \"Go. Assemble all the Jews in Shushan, and fast on my behalf, neither eat nor drink for three whole days, by day or by night; I and my maids shall fast likewise. And thus shall I present myself before the king, contrary to the law - and if I am lost - I am lost.\" Then Mordekhai went forth, and carried out all that Esther had charged him. On the third day, Esther arrayed herself in royal garments, and took her place in the inner court of the king's house, looking toward the palace, while upon his royal throne in the great hall sat the king, looking toward the palace gate. And when the king beheld Queen Esther standing in the courtyard, grace was upon her in his sight, and the king held out the golden scepter that was in his hand towards Esther, and Esther drew near and touched the tip of the scepter. And the king said to her, \"Why have you come, Esther my queen? And what would you request? Even to half my kingdom, it shall be granted you.\" Esther said, \"If it so please Your Majesty, let the king come this day, together with Haman, to the banquet I have made ready for him.\" And the king cried, \"Make haste - bring Haman to fulfill Esther's word!\" So the king and Haman come to the banquet Esther had made ready. And at that drinking banquet, the king said to Esther, \"What then is your wish? It shall be granted you. And what would you request? Even to half my kingdom, it shall be fulfilled.\" So Esther answered and made reply, \"This is my wish and my petition: if I find favor with the king, and if it so please the king, to grant what I wish, to fulfill my petition - let the king and Haman come once more to the banquet I shall make ready for them.
