The king cannot sleep, has the book of records of the chronicles read, and asks what honor has been given to Mordecai
왕이 잠이 오지 아니하여 역대 일기를 읽히고 모르드개에게 베푼 존귀를 물음
Esther 6:1–3: on that night, the king can’t sleep. He commands the book of records of the chronicles to be brought, and they are read to the king. The text says, “It was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, who were doorkeepers, who had tried to lay hands on the King Ahasuerus.” The king says, “What honor and dignity has been given to Mordecai for this?” Then the king’s servants who attended him say, “Nothing has been done for him.” The Korean Revised Version has the king command the book to be brought and read before him (자기 앞에서 읽히더니), and calls those who answer 시신 (the attendants).
