וְאֵ֣ל שַׁדַּ֗י יִתֵּ֨ן לָכֶ֤ם רַחֲמִים֙ לִפְנֵ֣י הָאִ֔ישׁ וְשִׁלַּ֥ח לָכֶ֛ם אֶת־אֲחִיכֶ֥ם אַחֵ֖ר וְאֶת־בִּנְיָמִ֑ין וַאֲנִ֕י כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר שָׁכֹ֖לְתִּי שָׁכָֽלְתִּי׃
願全能者上帝使你們在那人面前蒙憐憫，讓他釋放你們的另一個兄弟和便雅憫回來。至於我，我若喪子，就喪子吧！»
Esther
Go, gather all of the Jews that are found in Shushan, and fast for me. Do not eat and do not drink three days, night and day. Also I and my maidens will fast thus. And thus shall I come to the king, not as ordained [i.e., without being summoned], and as I have [begun] to go lost, I shall go lost [i.e., I am prepared to die.]
