16And in the presenceH6440 of the kingH4428 and the other officialsH8269, MemucanH4462 saidH559, “QueenH4436 VashtiH2060 has wrongedH5753 not onlyH905 the kingH4428 but also allH3605 the officialsH8269 and allH3605 the peoplesH5971 whoH834 are in allH3605 the provincesH4082 of KingH4428 AhasuerusH325.
17For the queen’sH4436 conductH1697 will 1becomeH3318 knownH3318 to allH3605 the womenH802 so as to makeH959 their own husbandsH1167 despicableH959 in their sightH5869, when they sayH559, ‘KingH4428 AhasuerusH325 2commandedH559 that QueenH4436 VashtiH2060 be broughtH935 inH935 to his presenceH6440, but she did not comeH935.’
