Esther 2:18-23

Then the king
<04428>
made
<06213> (8799)
a great
<01419>
feast
<04960>
unto all his princes
<08269>
and his servants
<05650>_,
[even] Esther's
<0635>
feast
<04960>_;
and he made
<06213> (8804)
a release
<02010>
to the provinces
<04082>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
gifts
<04864>_,
according to the state
<03027>
of the king
<04428>_.
{release: Heb. rest}
And when the virgins
<01330>
were gathered together
<06908> (8736)
the second time
<08145>_,
then Mordecai
<04782>
sat
<03427> (8802)
in the king's
<04428>
gate
<08179>_.
Esther
<0635>
had not [yet] shewed
<05046> (8688)
her kindred
<04138>
nor her people
<05971>_;
as Mordecai
<04782>
had charged
<06680> (8765)
her: for Esther
<0635>
did
<06213> (8802)
the commandment
<03982>
of Mordecai
<04782>_,
like as when she was brought up
<0545>
with him.
In those days
<03117>_,
while Mordecai
<04782>
sat
<03427> (8802)
in the king's
<04428>
gate
<08179>_,
two
<08147>
of the king's
<04428>
chamberlains
<05631>_,
Bigthan
<0904>
and Teresh
<08657>_,
of those which kept
<08104> (8802)
the door
<05592>_,
were wroth
<07107> (8804)_,
and sought
<01245> (8762)
to lay
<07971> (8800)
hand
<03027>
on the king
<04428>
Ahasuerus
<0325>_.
{Bigthan: also called, Bigthana} {the door: Heb. the threshold}
And the thing
<01697>
was known
<03045> (8735)
to Mordecai
<04782>_,
who told
<05046> (8686)
[it] unto Esther
<0635>
the queen
<04436>_;
and Esther
<0635>
certified
<0559> (8799)
the king
<04428>
[thereof] in Mordecai's
<04782>
name
<08034>_.
And when inquisition
<01245> (8792)
was made of the matter
<01697>_,
it was found out
<04672> (8735)_;
therefore they were both
<08147>
hanged
<08518> (8735)
on a tree
<06086>_:
and it was written
<03789> (8735)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
