Esther 1:19-20
English Standard Version Anglicised
19 If it please the king, let a royal order go out from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes so (A)that it may not be repealed, that Vashti is never again to come before King Ahasuerus. And let the king give her royal position to another who is better than she. 20 So when the decree made by the king is proclaimed throughout all his kingdom, for it is vast, (B)all women will give honour to their husbands, high and low alike.”

New International Version
19 “Therefore, if it pleases the king,(A) let him issue a royal decree and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed,(B) that Vashti is never again to enter the presence of King Xerxes.
