廢瓦實提后位

（斯1:13-22）

瓦實提被廢

（斯1:13-22）

斯1:13（CUV）那時、在王左右常見王面、國中坐高位的、有波斯和瑪代的七個大臣、就是甲示拿、示達、 押瑪他、他施斯、米力、瑪西拿、米母干、都是達時務的明哲人．按王的常規、辦事必先詢問知例明法的人．王問他們說、

斯1:13（NCV）王就諮詢通達時務的哲士；因為當時按照王的規定，王要處理一事，必先問問面前所有精通法令和審斷的 朝臣。

斯1:13（CLV）亞哈隨魯王有這樣的一個習慣：凡事必先徵求通曉法理、富有見識的人的意見，於是他就去諮詢他的智囊團。

斯1:14（CUV）併入第13節中

斯1:14（NCV）那時在王身邊的有甲示拿、示達、押瑪他、 他施斯、米力、瑪西拿、米母干等七位波斯、瑪代的大臣；他們都是常見王面，在國中居首位的。

斯1:14（CLV）當時能夠常常接近國王的有甲示拿、示達、押瑪他、 他施斯、米力、瑪西拿和米母干等七個人。他們都是瑪代和波斯地位極高的重臣，也是國王的私人顧問。

斯1:15（CUV）王后瓦實提不遵太監所傳的王命、照例應當怎樣辦理呢．

斯1:15（NCV）王問他們說：「王后瓦實提不遵行亞哈隨魯王藉著太監所傳的命令，按照法令應怎樣辦理呢﹖」

斯1:15（CLV）國王問他們說：「根據法律，瓦實提王后違抗了內侍所傳的聖旨，該當何罪？」

斯1:16（CUV）米母干在王和眾首領面前回答說、王后瓦實提這事、不但得罪王、並且有害於王各省的臣民．

斯1:16（NCV）米母干在王和眾首領面前回答：「王后瓦實提不但得罪了皇上，而且還得罪了 亞哈隨魯王各省的臣民。

斯1:16（CLV）米母干當著國王和其他大臣面前建議說：「瓦實提王后鬧出這事，不但冒犯了陛下，而且有害於舉國的臣民。

斯1:17（CUV）因為王后這事必傳到眾婦人的耳中、說、亞哈隨魯王吩咐王后瓦實提到王面前、他卻不來、他們就藐視自己的丈夫．

斯1:17（NCV）因為王后這事必傳到所有婦女的耳中，會使她們眼中輕視自己的丈夫，因為她們說：『亞哈隨魯王吩咐人帶王后 瓦實提到王面前，她卻沒有來。』

斯1:17（CLV）王后這種行徑必會傳開，婦女們就會爭先效尤，不尊重她們的丈夫，並且振振有辭地說：『國王召王后，她都不去。』

斯1:18（CUV）今日波斯和瑪代的眾夫人聽見王后這事、必向王的大臣照樣行．從此必大開藐視和忿怒之端。

斯1:18（NCV）現在波斯和瑪代的公主貴婦聽見王后這件事，就必照樣告訴王的大臣，這樣輕視和忿怒的事就常有了。

斯1:18（CLV）今天，凡聽到王后這事的瑪代和波斯的公主和貴婦，也會不服從她們身為朝廷重臣的丈夫。這樣一來，全國藐視和惱怒丈夫的事情，必會層出不窮。

斯1:19（CUV）王若以為美、就降旨寫在波斯和瑪代人的例中、永不更改、不准瓦實提再到王面前、將他王后的位分賜給比他還好的人．

斯1:19（NCV）王若是贊成，可以下一道諭旨，並且寫在波斯和瑪代的法令中，永不廢除。不准 瓦實提再到亞哈隨魯王面前來，又請王把她王后的位分賜給另一位比她好的人。

斯1:19（CLV）陛下如果贊成的話，就請降旨取消瓦實提皇后朝見陛下的權利，另立更賢淑的新后，並且把這件事記錄在本國的法典中，永不廢除。

斯1:20（CUV）所降的旨意傳遍通國、（國度本來廣大）所有的婦人、無論丈夫貴賤都必尊敬他。

斯1:20（NCV）王頒布的諭旨傳遍全國的時候，所有的婦人都必敬重她們的丈夫，不論丈夫尊卑貴賤。」

斯1:20（CLV）這道聖旨一下，陛下整個廣闊的國境之內，所有的婦女不論她們的丈夫貴賤，都會尊敬順從他們了。」

斯1:21（CUV）王和眾首領都以米母干的話為美、王就照這話去行、

斯1:21（NCV）王和眾領袖都贊成米母干的話；王就照著他的話去行，

斯1:21（CLV）國王和眾大臣都很贊同米母干的意見。國王便依照他的建議實行，

斯1:22（CUV）發詔書、用各省的文字、各族的方言、通知各省、使為丈夫的在家作主、各說、本地的方言。 ●

斯1:22（NCV）把詔書送到王的各省，每一省都用各省的文宇，每一族都用各族的方言，使作丈夫的都在家中作主，說話有權威。●

斯1:22（CLV）分別以各省的文字和各族的方言，頒下詔書，通令全國；說明丈夫應是一家之主，該有管轄全家的權利。●

Queen Vashti Deposed（EST 1:1-）

Esther 1:1（KJV）Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus, (this is Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, over an hundred and seven and twenty provinces:)

Esther 1:1（NIV）This is what happened during the time of Xerxes, the Xerxes who ruled over 127 provinces stretching from India to Cush:

Esther 1:2（KJV）That in those days, when the king Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the palace,

Esther 1:2（NIV）At that time King Xerxes reigned from his royal throne in the citadel of Susa,

Esther 1:3（KJV）In the third year of his reign, he made a feast unto all his princes and his servants; the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces, being before him:

Esther 1:3（NIV）and in the third year of his reign he gave a banquet for all his nobles and officials. The military leaders of Persia and Media, the princes, and the nobles of the provinces were present.

Esther 1:4（KJV）When he shewed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honour of his excellent majEsther y many days, even an hundred and fourscore days.

Esther 1:4（NIV）For a full 180 days he displayed the vast wealth of his kingdom and the splendor and glory of his majesty.

Esther 1:5（KJV）And when these days were expired, the king made a feast unto all the people that were present in Shushan the palace, both unto great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king's palace;

Esther 1:5（NIV）When these days were over, the king gave a banquet, lasting seven days, in the enclosed garden of the king's palace, for all the people from the least to the greatest, who were in the citadel of Susa.

Esther 1:6（KJV）Where were white, green, and blue, hangings, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and pillars of marble: the beds were of gold and silver, upon a pavement of red, and blue, and white, and black, marble.

Esther 1:6（NIV）The garden had hangings of white and blue linen, fastened with cords of white linen and purple material to silver rings on marble pillars. There were couches of gold and silver on a mosaic pavement of porphyry, marble, mother-of-pearl and other costly stones.

Esther 1:7（KJV）And they gave them drink in vessels of gold, (the vessels being diverse one from another,) and royal wine in abundance, according to the state of the king.

Esther 1:7（NIV）Wine was served in goblets of gold, each one different from the other, and the royal wine was abundant, in keeping with the king's liberality.

Esther 1:8（KJV）And the drinking was according to the law; none did compel: for so the king had appointed to all the officers of his house, that they should do according to every man's pleasure.

Esther 1:8（NIV）By the king's command each guest was allowed to drink in his own way, for the king instructed all the wine stewards to serve each man what he wished.

Esther 1:9（KJV）Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to king Ahasuerus.

Esther 1:9（NIV）Queen Vashti also gave a banquet for the women in the royal palace of King Xerxes.

Esther 1:10（KJV）On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king,

Esther 1:10（NIV）On the seventh day, when King Xerxes was in high spirits from wine, he commanded the seven eunuchs who served him--Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar and Carcas--

Esther 1:11（KJV）To bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on.

Esther 1:11（NIV）to bring before him Queen Vashti, wearing her royal crown, in order to display her beauty to the people and nobles, for she was lovely to look at.

Esther 1:12（KJV）But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king's commandment by his chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him.

Esther 1:12（NIV）But when the attendants delivered the king's command, Queen Vashti refused to come. Then the king became furious and burned with anger.

Esther 1:13（KJV）Then the king said to the wise men, which knew the times, (for so was the king's manner toward all that knew law and judgment:

Esther 1:13（NIV）Since it was customary for the king to consult experts in matters of law and justice, he spoke with the wise men who understood the times

Esther 1:14（KJV）And the next unto him was Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, which saw the king's face, and which sat the first in the kingdom;)

Esther 1:14（NIV）and were closest to the king--Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena and Memucan, the seven nobles of Persia and Media who had special access to the king and were highest in the kingdom.

Esther 1:15（KJV）What shall we do unto the queen Vashti according to law, because she hath not performed the commandment of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains?

Esther 1:15（NIV）"According to law, what must be done to Queen Vashti?" he asked. "She has not obeyed the command of King Xerxes that the eunuchs have taken to her."

Esther 1:16（KJV）And Memucan answered before the king and the princes, Vashti the queen hath not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the people that are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus.

Esther 1:16（NIV）Then Memucan replied in the presence of the king and the nobles, "Queen Vashti has done wrong, not only against the king but also against all the nobles and the peoples of all the provinces of King Xerxes.

Esther 1:17（KJV）For this deed of the queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall despise their husbands in their eyes, when it shall be reported, The king Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.

Esther 1:17（NIV）For the queen's conduct will become known to all the women, and so they will despise their husbands and say, 'King Xerxes commanded Queen Vashti to be brought before him, but she would not come.'

Esther 1:18（KJV）Likewise shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day unto all the king's princes, which have heard of the deed of the queen. Thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath.

Esther 1:18（NIV）This very day the Persian and Median women of the nobility who have heard about the queen's conduct will respond to all the king's nobles in the same way. There will be no end of disrespect and discord.

Esther 1:19（KJV）If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal Esther ate unto another that is better than she.

Esther 1:19（NIV）"Therefore, if it pleases the king, let him issue a royal decree and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed, that Vashti is never again to enter the presence of King Xerxes. Also let the king give her royal position to someone else who is better than she.

Esther 1:20（KJV）And when the king's decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small.

Esther 1:20（NIV）Then when the king's edict is proclaimed throughout all his vast realm, all the women will respect their husbands, from the least to the greatest."

Esther 1:21（KJV）And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan:

Esther 1:21（NIV）The king and his nobles were pleased with this advice, so the king did as Memucan proposed.

Esther 1:22（KJV）For he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that it should be published according to the language of every people.

Esther 1:22（NIV）He sent dispatches to all parts of the kingdom, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own language, proclaiming in each people's tongue that every man should be ruler over his own household.
