Esther 4:8

וְאֶת פַּתְשֶׁ֣גֶן כְּתָ֣ב הַדָּ֗ת אֲשֶׁר נִתַּ֤ן בְּשׁוּשָׁן֙ לְהַשְׁמִידָ֔ם נָ֣תַן ל֔וֹ לְהַרְא֖וֹת אֶת אֶסְתֵּ֑ר וּלְהַגִּ֣יד לָ֗הּ וּלְצַוּ֤וֹת עָלֶ֙יהָ֙ לָב֣וֹא אֶל הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ לְהִֽתְחַנֶּן לּ֥וֹ וּלְבַקֵּ֥שׁ מִלְּפָנָ֖יו עַל עַמָּֽהּ׃

King James Version (KJV)

Also he gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given at Shushan to destroy them, to shew it unto Esther, and to declare it unto her, and to charge her that she should go in unto the king, to make supplication unto him, and to make request before him for her people.

Modern English

Mordecai also gave him a copy of the written decree issued in Susa for their destruction, that he might show it to Esther and explain it to her and command her to go to the king to beg his favor and plead with him on behalf of her people.
