“ 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pleases the king, let him issue a royal decree and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed, that Vashti is never again to enter the presence of King Xerxes.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.

“ So if it pleases you, send out a royal order. Let it be written down in the laws of Persia and Media. Those laws can never be changed. Let the royal order say that Vashti can never see you again. Also let her position as queen be given to someone who is better than she is.

If it please the king, let a royal order go out from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes so that it may not be repealed, that Vashti is never again to come before King Ahasuerus. And let the king give her royal position to another who is better than she.

“ So if it please the king, we suggest that you issue a written decree, a law of the Persians and Medes that cannot be revoked. It should order that Queen Vashti be forever banished from the presence of King Xerxes, and that the king should choose another queen more worthy than she.

“ If it meets the king’s approval, he should personally issue a royal decree. Let it be recorded in the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it cannot be revoked: Vashti is not to enter King Ahasuerus’s presence, and her royal position is to be given to another woman who is more worthy than she.

If it pleases the king, let a royal edict be issued by him and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media so that it cannot be repealed, that Vashti may not come into the presence of King Ahasuerus, and let the king give her royal position to another who is more worthy than she.

If it pleases the king, let a royal decree go out from him, and let it be recorded in the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it will not be altered, that Vashti shall come no more before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal position to another who is better than she.

If it please the king, let there go forth 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 estate unto another that is better than she.

If the king is so inclined, let a royal edict go forth from him, and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media that cannot be repealed, that Vashti may not come into the presence of King Ahasuerus, and let the king convey her royalty to another who is more deserving than she.

你們就照著你們眼中看為好的，以王的名義給猶太人下旨，用王的印戒封印吧；因為以王的名義下旨、用王的印戒封印的文書是不能撤回的。」

王啊，現在請你照著不能廢除的米底亞和波斯的法令，設立這禁令並簽署這文告，使它不能更改！」於是，大流士王簽署了這禁令文告。但以理知道這文書已經簽署了，回到自己的家裡——他閣樓上的窗戶朝耶路撒冷開著——仍然一天三次雙膝跪下，在他的神面前禱告、感謝，就像以前那樣做。那時，這些人合謀而來，發現但以理正在他的神面前祈禱、懇求。於是他們來到王面前，提起有關王的禁令：「王啊，難道你不是簽署了以下的禁令嗎？三十天之內，無論何人，如果向你以外的任何神明或任何人祈禱，就必被扔進獅子坑！」王開口說：「照著不能廢除的米底亞和波斯的法令，確實如此。」他們就在王面前回應說：「王啊，猶大被擄之民中的但以理，不理會你的命令，也不理會你所簽署的禁令，他仍然一天三次祈禱。」王聽見了這話，就極其煩惱，定意要拯救但以理；直到日落的時候，他還在盡一切努力要解救但以理。這些人又合謀來到王那裡，對王說：「王啊，你要知道，照著米底亞和波斯的法令，王所設立的任何禁令和法規都不能更改！」

撒母耳就對他說：「耶和華今天從你身上撕去了以色列的王權，賜給了你的鄰人，他比你好。

如果王認為好，就請王下旨消滅他們；我將捐出一萬他連得銀子，交在管理國務的人手中，歸入國庫。」

她說：「如果王認為好，如果我在王面前蒙恩，如果這事在王面前合宜，如果我在王眼前蒙喜悅，就請王下旨撤回亞甲人哈米達塔的兒子哈曼所謀設的詔書，就是他寫下要消滅王各省中猶太人的那詔書。

人又把一塊石頭搬來，放在坑口上，王就用自己的印和大臣們的印封上石頭；這樣，有關但以理的事就不能更改了。

這事在王和首領們眼中都看為好；王就照著彌慕干的話去做，
