Ester 4:11

4:11 “All the servants of the king and the people of the king’s provinces know that there is only one law applicable ¹  to any man or woman who comes uninvited to the king in the inner court – that person will be put to death, unless the king extends to him the gold scepter, permitting him to be spared. ²  Now I have not been invited to come to the king for some thirty days!”

[4:11]  ¹ tn Heb “one is his law”; NASB “he (the king NIV) has but one law”

[4:11]  ² tn Heb “and he will live”; KJV, ASV “that he may live”; NIV “and spare his life.”
