Greek Esther 1:6-8
Common English Bible
6 White linen and cotton curtains hung from shining white and red-purple ropes tied to gold and silver rings and marble posts. Gold and silver couches sat on a mosaic floor made of emerald, marble, and mother-of-pearl. 7 The cups were made of gold and silver. There was a miniature cup made of ruby, worth 1,710,000 pounds of silver.[a] The king made sure there was plenty of the best wine, which he himself also drank. 8 The wine festival had no established rules, so the king ordered everyone serving wine in the palace to offer as much as each guest wanted.
