Esther calls for Hathach and commands him to go to Mordecai, to find out what this was
에스더가 내시 하닥을 불러 모르드개에게 가서 알아 보라고 명함
Esther 4:4–9: Esther’s maidens and her eunuchs come and tell her this, and the queen is exceedingly grieved. She sends clothing to Mordecai, to replace his sackcloth, but he doesn’t receive it. Then Esther calls for Hathach, one of the king’s eunuchs, whom he had appointed to attend her, and commands him to go to Mordecai, to find out what this was, and why it was. So Hathach goes out to Mordecai, to the city square which was before the king’s gate. Mordecai tells him of all that had happened to him, and the exact sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king’s treasuries for the destruction of the Jews. “He also gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given out in Susa to destroy them, to show it to Esther, and to declare it to her, and to urge her to go in to the king to make supplication to him, and to make request before him for her people.” Hathach comes and tells Esther the words of Mordecai. The Korean Revised Version names Hathach at 4:7 and 4:8 (하닥에게, to Hathach), where WEB reads “him” and “He also gave him”; reads 왕의 명으로 자기에게 근시하는 내시 하닥 (the eunuch Hathach, who attended her by the king’s command) at 4:5; gives Esther’s command in her words (이것이 무슨 일이며 무슨 연고인가 알아 보라, find out what this is and for what cause); and reads 수산궁 (Susa the palace) at 4:8.
