Esther 4:4 in Context — Esther 4
2 E chegou até diante da porta do rei, porque ninguém vestido de saco podia entrar pela porta do rei.
3 E em toda província e lugar onde a palavra do rei e seu decreto chegava, havia entre os judeus grande luto, jejum, choro, e lamentação; e muitos se deitaram em sacos e cinza.
4 Então as virgens de Ester e seus eunucos vieram e a informaram; então a rainha teve grande dor, e enviou roupas para vestir a Mardoqueu, e tirar o saco que estava sobre ele; porém ele não as aceitou.
5 Então Ester chamou a Hatá, um dos eunucos do rei, que ele tinha posto para a servir, e o mandou a Mardoqueu, para saber o que era aquilo, e por quê.
6 Assim, pois Hatá veio a Mardoqueu à praça da cidade que estava diante da porta do rei.
