以斯帖记Lesson 2957 9th June 2026

Est 4:10 "Then Esther spoke to Hathach and commanded him to go to Mordecai and say,"以斯帖就吩咐哈他革去见末底改说：Est 4:11 "All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that if any man or woman goes to the king inside the inner court without being called, there is but one law--to be put to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter so that he may live. But as for me, I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days."“王的一切臣仆和各省的人民，都知道有一个定例：若不蒙召，擅入内院见王的，无论男女必被治死；除非王向他伸出金杖，不得存活。现在我没有蒙召进去见王已经三十日了。”Est 4:12 And they told Mordecai what Esther had said.人就把以斯帖这话告诉末底改。Est 4:13 "Then Mordecai told them to reply to Esther, "Do not think to yourself that in the king's palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews."末底改托人回复以斯帖说：“你莫想在王宫里强过一切犹大人，得免这祸。Est 4:14 "For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"此时你若闭口不言，犹大人必从别处得解脱，蒙拯救；你和你父家，必致灭亡。焉知你得了王后的位分，不是为现今的机会吗？”
