19And when the virginsH1330 were gatheredH6908 togetherH6908 the secondH8145 time, then MordecaiH4782 satH3427 in the king’sH4428 gateH8179. 20EstherH635 had notH369 yet shewed herH5046 kindredH4138 norH369 herH5046 peopleH5971; as MordecaiH4782 had chargedH6680 herH5046: for EstherH635 didH6213 the commandmentH6680 of MordecaiH4782, like as when sheH834 was broughtH1961 upH5921 with him. 21In thoseH1992 daysH3117, whileH3117 MordecaiH4782 satH3427 in the king’sH4428 gateH8179, twoH8147 of the king’sH4428 chamberlains, BigthanH904 and TereshH8657, of thoseH1992 which keptH8104 the door, were wroth, and soughtH1245 to layH7971 handsH3027 on the kingH4428 AhasuerusH325. 22And the thingH1697 was knownH3045 to MordecaiH4782, who shewed it unto EstherH635 the queenH4436; and EstherH635 toldH5046 the kingH4428 thereof in Mordecai’sH4782 nameH8034. 23And when inquisition was madeH1245 of the matterH1697, and it was foundH4672 to be soH1697, they were bothH8147 hangedH8518 on a treeH6086: and it was writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
