Esther 6:1-3

Common English Bible

Honor for Mordecai

6 That same night, the king simply couldn’t sleep. He had the official royal records brought in, and his young male servants began reading them to the king. ² They came to the report about Mordecai informing on Bigthan and Teresh. (They were the two royal eunuchs among the guards protecting the king’s doorway, who secretly planned to kill King Ahasuerus.) ³ “What was done to honor and reward Mordecai for this?” the king asked.

His young male servants replied, “Nothing was done for him, sir.”
