Esther 2:19-21

Darby Translation

¹⁹ And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, Mordecai sat in the king's gate.

²⁰ (Esther, as Mordecai had charged her, had not yet made known her birth nor her people; for Esther did what Mordecai told her, like as when she was brought up with him.)

²¹ In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the threshold, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.
