{2:1} And Mordecai took his rest in the court with Gabatha and Tharra, the two eunuchs
of the king, and keepers of the palace.

{2:2} And he heard their plan, and searched out their purposes, and learned that they were about to lay hands upon Ahasuerus
the king; and so he testified to the king about them.

{2:3} Then the king examined the two eunuchs, and after they had confessed, they were strangled.

{2:4} And the king made a record of these things, and Mordecai also wrote thereof.

{2:5} So the king commanded, Mordecai to serve in the court, and for this he rewarded him.

{2:6} However, Haman
, the son of Hammedatha
the Agagite
, was in great honor with the king, and sought to injure Mordecai and his people because of the two eunuchs of the king.
