Esther:3:2-4

*
And all the king '
s servants ,
that were in the king '
s gate ,
bowed ,
and reverenced Haman :
for the king had so commanded concerning him .
But Mordecai bowed not ,
nor did him reverence .
*
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 .
