Esther 4:7-9
International Standard Version
7 Mordecai told him everything that had happened and the exact amount of money that Haman had said he would pay into the king’s treasury in order to destroy the Jewish people. 8 Mordecai[a] gave Hathach[b] a copy of the written decree ordering the Jews’ destruction that had been issued in Susa. Mordecai[c] wanted him to show it to Esther, to explain it to her, and then to instruct her to go in to the king to seek his favor and plead with him for her people.
9 Hathach went and told Esther what Mordecai had said.[d]
