Esther 4:6

Esther's Problem

⁵ Then called Esther for Hathach, one of the eunuchs of the king whom he had stationed before her, and charged him, concerning Mordecai, - to get to know what this was, and why this was. ⁶ So Hathach went forth unto Mordecai, - in the broadway of the city, which was before the gate of the king. ⁷ And Mordecai told him all that had befallen him, - and an exact statement of the silver, that Haman had promised to weigh out unto the treasuries of the king, for the Jews, to destroy them.
