| The king made a permanent record of these things, and Mordecai wrote an account of them. | |
| And the king ordered Mordecai to serve in the court and rewarded him for these things. | |
| But Haman, the son of Hammedatha, a Bougaean, was in great honor with the king, and he sought to injure Mordecai and his people because of the two eunuchs of the king. | |
