All the king's servants who were at the king's gate bowed down and paid homage to Haman; for so the king had commanded concerning him. But Mordecai neither bowed down nor paid homage. read more. Then the king's servants who were at the king's gate said to Mordecai, "Why are you transgressing the king's command?"
