Esther 3:1

Haman’s Conspiracy Against the Jews

1 After these things King Ahasuerus promoted Haman, the son of Hammedatha the ^aAgagite, and ^badvanced him and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.

2 And all the king’s servants who were ^awithin the king’s gate bowed and paid homage to Haman, for so the king had commanded concerning him. But Mordecai ^bwould not bow or pay homage.

3 Then the king’s servants who were within the king’s gate said to Mordecai, “Why do you transgress the ^aking’s command?”

4 Now it happened, when they spoke to him daily and he would not listen to them, that they told it to Haman, to see whether Mordecai’s words would stand; for Mordecai had told them that he was a Jew.
