Ester 4

he went up to the entrance of the gate of the king, for he could not go to the gate of the king in sackcloth.

Y vino hasta delante de la puerta del rey: porque no era lícito pasar adentro de la puerta del rey con vestido de saco.

And came even before the king’s gate: for none might enter into the king’s gate clothed with sackcloth.

He came even before the king’s gate, for no one is allowed inside the king’s gate clothed with sackcloth.
