Greek Esther 2:21-23

Common English Bible

²¹ But two eunuchs, the king’s two main bodyguards, became very upset because Mordecai was promoted. They secretly planned to kill King Artaxerxes. ²² When Mordecai got wind of it, he reported it to Esther, who spoke to the king about the plan. ²³ The king questioned the two men and hanged them. Then the king ordered a record of the event to be placed in the royal archive to remember Mordecai’s loyalty.
