1On that night, the king couldn’t sleep. He commanded the book of records of the chronicles to be brought, and they were read to the king.

2It was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, who were doorkeepers, who had tried to lay hands on the King Ahasuerus.

3The king said, “What honor and dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?” Then the king’s servants who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.”

4The king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king’s house, to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

5The king’s servants said to him, “Behold, Haman stands in the court.” The king said, “Let him come in.”
