Esther 1:2-4

Jubilee Bible 2000

² That in those days, when the King Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan, the palace,

³ In the third year of his reign, he made a banquet unto all his princes and his slaves, having before him the power of Persia and Media, the governors and princes of the provinces,

⁴ to show them the riches of the glory of his kingdom and the honour of beauty of his greatness for many days, even one hundred and eighty days.
