Esther 4:3

← Esther 4:2 Esther 4:3 (KJV) Esther 4:4 →
And came even before the king's gate: for none [might] enter into the king's gate clothed with sackcloth.
And in every province, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, [there was] great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.
So Esther's maids and her chamberlains came and told [it] her. Then was the queen exceedingly grieved; and she sent raiment to clothe Mordecai, and to take away his sackcloth from him: but he received [it] not.
