What events and attributed statements does Esther Chapter 14 record?

Terrified by the imminent mortal peril hanging over her people, Queen Esther sought refuge in the Lord. Casting aside her magnificent royal garments, she clothed herself in attire of lamentation and grief. In place of fragrant ointments and perfumes, she covered her head with ashes and dung, afflicted her body with fasts, and strewed her torn hair across the places where she had previously known joy and celebration.

Calling upon the Lord God of Israel as her sole sovereign and helper in her desolation, Esther confessed that her danger was in her hands. Recalling the ancestral heritage learned from her father—that God had chosen Israel from among all nations as an everlasting possession—she acknowledged that her people had sinned by worshipping foreign gods, confessing that God's judgment in delivering them to their captors was entirely just. However, she observed that their oppressors were no longer satisfied with harsh servitude, but now attributed their power to idols, aiming to destroy God's inheritance, abolish His promises, silence the voices that praise Him, and extinguish the glory of His temple and altar in order to glorify false deities and a mortal sovereign. Esther prayed that the Lord would not surrender His sceptre to “them that are not” nor permit the adversary to rejoice over Israel's ruin, pleading that He turn the enemy's counsel back upon his own head.

Imploring the Almighty to remember His people in their tribulation, Esther begged for courage in the presence of the lion, as her prayer puts it, asking God to place well-ordered words into her mouth in the presence of the lion and turn the king's heart to despise their adversary so that Aman and his conspirators might perish. Baring her soul before the Omniscient Lord, she testified that she detested the glory of the wicked, abhorred intimacy with the uncircumcised, and utterly abominated the royal crown upon her head as a polluted garment, refusing to wear it in private. She declared that she had never eaten at Aman's table, been pleased by the king’s banquet, or drunk the wine of pagan drink offerings, finding joy only in the Lord God of Abraham. Concluding her supplication, Esther implored the God of all power to hear the voice of those who had no other hope, deliver them from wicked hands, and rescue her from her terror.
