Esther 2:20-22

The Voice

²⁰ Since Mordecai had required Esther to keep her Jewish heritage a secret, she had told no one. She continued to obey him as she did when he took care of her. ²¹ One day while Mordecai was at the gate, Bigthan and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs who guarded the door, were plotting to kill King Ahasuerus. They were angry over some matter. ²² But Mordecai learned of their plan and reported it to Queen Esther who told the king about the plot, giving credit to her cousin.
