The King Honors Mordecai

6 That night 1the king could not sleep. So one was commanded to bring athe book of the records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. 2 And it was found written that Mordecai had told of 2Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, the doorkeepers who had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus. 3 Then the king said, “What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?”

And the king’s servants who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.”
