|---|---|---|
Then the king's servants, which were in the king's gate, said unto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the king's commandment?
|
Now it came to pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told them that he was a Jew.

And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath.
