Esther 1:19-21

Tree of Life Version

¹⁹ If it pleases the king, let a royal commandment go forth from him, and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed, that Vashti may not come into the presence of King Ahasuerus, and let the king give her royal status to another who is more worthy than she. ²⁰ Then the king’s edict, which he will enact, will be proclaimed throughout all his vast kingdom, and all the wives will give their husbands honor from the greatest to the smallest.”

²¹ The matter pleased the king and the princes. So the king did according to the word of Memucan.
