That night the king could not sleep. He asked a servant to bring the kingdom's history book. He asked the servant to read the book to him. The history book included a report of how two of the king's eunuchs wanted to kill King Xerxes. Their names were Bigthana and Teresh. The report said that Mordecai had told the king about this.

Haman came in to the king's room. The king asked him, ‘If I want to give great honour to a man, what should we do for that man?’ Haman thought to himself, ‘I am sure that I am that man. The king must want to give me honour.’

The king said to Haman, ‘That is a good idea! Go quickly! Get my clothes and my horse. Go and do everything that you have suggested. Do it for the Jewish man, Mordecai, who sits at the king's gate. Be careful to do for him everything that you have said.’
