Esther 2:19-23 - A Plot Against The King

19 And in the gathering together the virgins the second time, and Mordecai sat in the gate of the king. 20 And Esther not announcing her kindred and her people, as Mordecai commanded to her: and Esther did the saying of Mordecai as when she was in bringing up with him.

21 In those days, and Mordecai sat in the gate of the king, Bigthan was angry, and Teresh, two eunuchs of the king watching the threshold; and they will seek to stretch forth the hand against the king Ahasuerus. 22 And the word will be known to Mordecai, and he will announce to Esther the queen; and Esther will tell to the king in the name of Mordecai. 23 And the word will be sought out and found, and they two will be hung upon a tree: and it will be written in the book of the words of the days before the king.
