The king can't sleep
That night the king couldn't sleep, so he ordered the book of records, the chronicles, to be brought, and they were read to him. And it was found written there that Mordecai had reported Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's officials who guarded the door, who had plotted to lay hands on King Ahasuerus. And the king said, What honour or recognition has Mordecai had for this? And the king's attendants said, Nothing has been done for him. And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman had just come into the outer court of the king's house, to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows he had built for him. And the king's attendants said, Haman is standing in the court. And the king said, Let him in. So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What should be done for the man the king delights to honour? Now Haman thought to himself, Who would the king delight to honour more than me? So Haman answered the king, For the man the king delights to honour, let the royal clothing the king wears be brought, and the horse the king rides, and the royal crown which is set upon his head. And let the robe and the horse be handed to one of the king's most noble officials, and let him dress the man the king delights to honour and lead him on horseback through the city square, calling out in front of him, This is what is done for the man the king delights to honour. Then the king said to Haman, Hurry up. Take the robe and the horse, just as you have said, and do exactly that for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king's gate. Don't leave out a single thing you have mentioned. So Haman took the robe and the horse, dressed Mordecai, and led him on horseback through the city square, calling out in front of him, This is what is done for the man the king delights to honour. And Mordecai went back to the king's gate. But Haman hurried home, mourning, with his head covered. And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him. Then his wise men and Zeresh his wife said to him, If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of the seed of the Jews, you won't prevail against him — you will surely fall before him. And while they were still talking with him, the king's officials arrived and hurried Haman off to the banquet Esther had prepared.
That night the king couldn't sleep. And he ordered them to bring the book of the records of the chronicles, and they were read in front of the king. And it was found written that Mordecai had told about Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's officers, the keepers of the door, who'd looked to lay hands on King Ahasuerus. And the king said: What honour and greatness has been done to Mordecai for this? Then the king's servants who served him said: Nothing has been done for him. And the king said: Who's in the court? Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king's house, to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows he'd got ready for him. And the king's servants said to him: Look — Haman is standing in the court. And the king said: Let him come in. So Haman came in. And the king said to him: What'll be done to the man the king takes delight in honouring? Now Haman thought in his heart: Who'd the king take delight in honouring more than me? And Haman answered the king: For the man the king takes delight in honouring — let the royal clothing be brought that the king wears, and the horse the king rides on, and the royal crown that's set on his head. And let this clothing and horse be given into the hand of one of the king's most noble officials, so they can dress the man the king takes delight in honouring, and bring him on horseback through the street of the town, and call out in front of him: This is what's done to the man the king takes delight in honouring. Then the king said to Haman: Hurry and take the clothing and the horse, the way you've said, and do that to Mordecai the Jew who sits at the king's gate. Don't leave out anything of everything you've said. Then Haman took the clothing and the horse and dressed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the town, and called out in front of him: This is what's done to the man the king takes delight in honouring. And Mordecai came back to the king's gate. But Haman hurried to his house mourning, with his head covered. And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his mates everything that had happened to him. Then his wise men and Zeresh his wife said to him: If Mordecai is of the offspring of the Jews, who you've started to fall in front of, you won't win against him, but you'll definitely fall in front of him. And while they were still talking with him, the king's officers came and hurried to bring Haman to the banquet Esther had got ready.
On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him. And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king’s house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. And the king’s servants said unto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in. So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself? And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour, Let the royal apparel be brought which the king useth to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head: And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour. Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken. Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour. And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered. And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him. And while they were yet talking with him, came the king’s chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the banquet that Esther had prepared.
