Esther 1:17-18

New American Standard Bible

¹⁷ For the queen’s conduct will ^[a]become known to all the women so as to make their own husbands despicable in their sight, when they say, ‘King Ahasuerus ^[b]commanded that Queen Vashti be brought in to his presence, but she did not come.’ ¹⁸ And this day the wives of the officials of Persia and Media who have heard about the queen’s conduct will talk about it to all the king’s officials, and there will be plenty of contempt and anger.
