“Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Susa, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day. I and my maidens will also fast the same way. Then I will go in to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish.”

ગુજરાતીએસ્તેર ૪:૧૬
“જા, સૂસામાં જેટલા યહૂદીઓ છે તે સર્વને ભેગા કર. અને તમે સર્વ આજે મારે માટે ઉપવાસ કરો. ત્રણ દિવસ સુધી રાત્રે કે દિવસે તમારે કોઈએ ખાવુંપીવું નહિ; હું અને મારી દાસીઓ પણ એ જ રીતે ઉપવાસ કરીશું. જો કે એ નિયમ વિરુદ્ધ હોવા છતાં હું રાજાની સમક્ષ જઈશ. જો મારો નાશ થાય, તો ભલે થાય.”
हिन्दीएस्तेर ४:१६
“तू जाकर शूशन के सब यहूदियों को इकट्ठा कर, और तुम सब मिलकर मेरे निमित्त उपवास करो, तीन दिन-रात न तो कुछ खाओ, और न कुछ पीओ। और मैं भी अपनी सहेलियों सहित उसी रीति उपवास करूँगी । और ऐसी ही दशा में मैं नियम के विरुद्ध राजा के पास भीतर जाऊँगी; और यदि नाश हो गई तो हो गई।”

In context

14For if you remain silent now, then relief and deliverance will come to the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Who knows if you haven’t come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”

15Then Esther asked them to answer Mordecai,

16“Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Susa, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day. I and my maidens will also fast the same way. Then I will go in to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish.”

17So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.
