Esther 1:15-17

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁵ What shall we do unto Queen Vashti according to law because she has not performed the decree of King Ahasuerus by the eunuchs?

¹⁶ And Memucan answered before the king and the princes, Vashti, the queen, has not only committed iniquity against the king, but also against all the princes and against all the people that are in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus.

¹⁷ For this deed of the queen shall be known abroad unto all the women so that they shall despise their husbands, saying, King Ahasuerus commanded Vashti, the queen, to be brought in before him, but she did not come.
