Esther 3:2-6

MSTC(i) 2 And all the king's servants that were in the gate, bowed their knees, and did reverenced unto Haman: for the king had so commanded. But Mordecai bowed not the knee, and worshiped him not. 3 Then the king's servants which were in the king's gate, said unto Mordecai, "Why transgressest thou the king's commandment?" 4 And when they spake this daily unto him and he followed them not, they told Haman, that they might see whether Mordecai's matters would endure: for he had told them that he was a Jew. 5 And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not the knee unto him, nor worshipped him, he was full of indignation 6 and thought it too little to lay hands only on Mordecai: for they had showed him the nation of Mordecai. Wherefore, he sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout the whole empire of Ahasuerus and were of the nation of Mordecai.
