OET-LV And_ the_servants_of the_king who were_at_the_gate_of the_king _they_said to_Mordəkay why are_you transgressing DOM the_command_of the_king.

OET (OET-RV) “Why are you disobeying the king’s command?” asked the other royal servants at the king’s gate.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 3:1–6: Haman became angry with Mordecai

The next event in the story was that the king promoted one of his officials called Haman to the highest position in the land, next to the king himself. The king ordered all his servants to bow down to Haman in respect to him, but Mordecai refused to do this because he was a Jew. When Haman heard about this, he was angry and planned to destroy all the Jews in the empire. He cast lots to find out the best day to choose for killing the Jews.

3:3a

Then the royal servants at the king’s gate asked Mordecai,

royal servants: See note on “officials” at 1:3a.

at the king’s gate: See note on 2:19b.

3:3b

“Why do you disobey the command of the king?”

uW Translation Notes:

עַבְדֵ֥י הַ⁠מֶּ֛לֶךְ אֲשֶׁר־בְּ⁠שַׁ֥עַר הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ

servants_of (Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said servants_of the=king which/who [were]_at,the_gate_of the=king to,Mordecai why you(ms) disobey DOM command_of of,the_king )

See how you translated this expression at the beginning of 3:2.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יֹּ֨אמְר֜וּ & לְ⁠מָרְדֳּכָ֑י

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said servants_of the=king which/who [were]_at,the_gate_of the=king to,Mordecai why you(ms) disobey DOM command_of of,the_king )

They spoke to Mordecai because they saw that he did not bow down. If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this explicitly. You could say, for example, “The other officials saw that, and they asked Mordecai.”

מַדּ֨וּעַ֙ אַתָּ֣ה עוֹבֵ֔ר אֵ֖ת מִצְוַ֥ת הַ⁠מֶּֽלֶךְ

why (Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said servants_of the=king which/who [were]_at,the_gate_of the=king to,Mordecai why you(ms) disobey DOM command_of of,the_king )

Alternate translation: [why are you disobeying the king’s command] or [why are you not obeying what the king commanded]
