Esther 1:10-15

On the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>_,
when the heart
<03820>
of the king
<04428>
was merry
<02896>
with wine
<03196>_,
he commanded
<0559> (8804)
Mehuman
<04104>_,
Biztha
<0968>_,
Harbona
<02726>_,
Bigtha
<0903>_,
and Abagtha
<05>_,
Zethar
<02242>_,
and Carcas
<03752>_,
the seven
<07651>
chamberlains
<05631>
that served
<08334> (8764)
in the presence
<06440>
of Ahasuerus
<0325>
the king
<04428>_,
{chamberlains: or, eunuchs}
To bring
<0935> (8687)
Vashti
<02060>
the queen
<04436>
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>
with the crown
<03804>
royal
<04438>_,
to shew
<07200> (8687)
the people
<05971>
and the princes
<08269>
her beauty
<03308>_:
for she [was] fair
<02896>
to look on
<04758>_.
{fair...: Heb. good of countenance}
But the queen
<04436>
Vashti
<02060>
refused
<03985> (8762)
to come
<0935> (8800)
at the king's
<04428>
commandment
<01697>
by
<03027>
[his] chamberlains
<05631>_:
therefore was the king
<04428>
very
<03966>
wroth
<07107> (8799)_,
and his anger
<02534>
burned
<01197> (8804)
in him. {by his...: Heb. which was by the hand of his eunuchs}
Then the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
to the wise men
<02450>_,
which knew
<03045> (8802)
the times
<06256>_,
(for so [was] the king's
<04428>
manner
<01697>
toward
<06440>
all that knew
<03045> (8802)
law
<01881>
and judgment
<01779>_:
And the next
<07138>
unto him [was] Carshena
<03771>_,
Shethar
<08369>_,
Admatha
<0133>_,
Tarshish
<08659>_,
Meres
<04825>_,
Marsena
<04826>_,
[and] Memucan
<04462>_,
the seven
<07651>
princes
<08269>
of Persia
<06539>
and Media
<04074>_,
which saw
<07200> (8802)
the king's
<04428>
face
<06440>_,
[and] which sat
<03427> (8802)
the first
<07223>
in the kingdom
<04438>;)
What shall we do
<06213> (8800)
unto the queen
<04436>
Vashti
<02060>
according to law
<01881>_,
because she hath not performed
<06213> (8804)
the commandment
<03982>
of the king
<04428>
Ahasuerus
<0325>
by
<03027>
the chamberlains
<05631>_?
{What...: Heb. What to do}
