Mordecai Uncovers a Conspiracy
21 In those days, while Mordecai was sitting at the king’s gate, Bigthan[fn] and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs who guarded the entrance, grew angry and conspired to assassinate King Xerxes.
22 When Mordecai learned of the plot, he reported it to Queen Esther, and she informed the king on Mordecai’s behalf.
23 After the report had been investigated and verified, both [officials] were hanged on the gallows. And all this was recorded in the Book of the Chronicles[fn] in the presence of the king.
