1 On that night the king couldn't sleep; and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles, and they were read before the king.
2 It was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, of those who kept the threshold, who had sought to lay hands on the king Ahasuerus.
3 The king said, What honor and dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this? Then the king's servants who ministered to him said, 'Nothing has been done for him.'
4 The king said, 'Who is in the court?' Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
