Esther 3:1-6

After
<0310>

these things
<01697>

did king
<04428>

Ahasuerus
<0325>

promote
<01431> (8765)

Haman
<02001>

the son
<01121>

of Hammedatha
<04099>

the Agagite
<091>_,

and advanced
<05375> (8762)

him, and set
<07760> (8799)

his seat
<03678>

above all the princes
<08269>

that [were] with him.

And all the king's
<04428>

servants
<05650>_,

that [were] in the king's
<04428>

gate
<08179>_,

bowed
<03766> (8802)_,

and reverenced
<07812> (8693)

Haman
<02001>_:

for the king
<04428>

had so commanded
<06680> (8765)

concerning him. But Mordecai
<04782>

bowed
<03766> (8799)

not, nor did [him] reverence
<07812> (8691)_.

Then the king's
<04428>

servants
<05650>_,

which [were] in the king's
<04428>

gate
<08179>_,

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Mordecai
<04782>_,

Why transgressest
<05674> (8802)

thou the king's
<04428>

commandment
<04687>_?

Now it came to pass, when they spake
<0559> (8800)

daily
<03117> <03117>

unto him, and he hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto them, that they told
<05046> (8686)

Haman
<02001>_,

to see
<07200> (8800)

whether Mordecai's
<04782>

matters
<01697>

would stand
<05975> (8799)_:

for he had told
<05046> (8689)

them that he [was] a Jew
<03064>_.

And when Haman
<02001>

saw
<07200> (8799)

that Mordecai
<04782>

bowed
<03766> (8802)

not, nor did him reverence
<07812> (8693)_,

then was Haman
<02001>

full
<04390> (8735)

of wrath
<02534>_.

And he thought
<05869>

scorn
<0959> (8799)

to lay
<07971> (8800)

hands
<03027>

on Mordecai
<04782>

alone; for they had shewed
<05046> (8689)

him the people
<05971>

of Mordecai
<04782>_:

wherefore Haman
<02001>

sought
<01245> (8762)

to destroy
<08045> (8687)

all the Jews
<03064>

that [were] throughout the whole kingdom
<04438>

of Ahasuerus
<0325>_,

[even] the people
<05971>

of Mordecai
<04782>_.
