Esther 6:1-3

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

Mordecai Honoured by the King

6 That night sleep escaped^(A) the king, so he ordered the book recording daily events to be brought and read to the king. ² They found the written report of how Mordecai had informed on Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs who guarded the entrance, when they planned to assassinate King Ahasuerus.^{(B) 3} The king enquired, ‘What honour and special recognition have been given to Mordecai for this act? ’^(C)

The king’s personal attendants replied, ‘Nothing has been done for him.’
