Esther 1:5-7
New King James Version
5 And when these days were completed, the king made a feast lasting seven days for all the people who were present in [a]Shushan the [b]citadel, from great to small, in the court of the garden of the king’s palace. 6 There were white and blue linen curtains fastened with cords of fine linen and purple on silver rods and marble pillars; and the (A)couches were of gold and silver on a mosaic pavement of alabaster, turquoise, and white and black marble. 7 And they served drinks in golden vessels, each vessel being different from the other, with royal wine in abundance, (B)according to the [c]generosity of the king.
