Esther 3:2-5

2AllH3605 the royalH4428 servantsH5650 at the king’sH4428 gateH8179 bowed downH3766 and paid homageH7812 to HamanH2001, becauseH3588 the kingH4428 had commandedH6680 that thisH3651 be done for him. But MordecaiH4782 would notH3808 bow downH3766H3808 or pay homageH7812.

3Then the royalH4428 servantsH5650 at the king’sH4428 gateH8179 askedH559 MordecaiH4782, “WhyH4069 do youH859 disobeyH5674 the commandH4687 of the kingH4428?”

DayH3117 after dayH3117 they warnedH559 himH413, but he would notH3808 complyH8085H413. So they reported itH5046 to HamanH2001 to seeH7200 whether Mordecai’sH4782 behaviorH1697 would be toleratedH5975, sinceH3588 he had toldH5046 themH834 heH1931 was a JewH3064.

5When HamanH2001 sawH7200 thatH3588 MordecaiH4782 would notH369 bow downH3766 or pay him homageH7812, heH2001 was filledH4390 with rageH2534.
