1 After these things, when the wrath of King Ahasuerus subsided, he remembered Vashti, awhat she had done, and what had been decreed against her.
2 Then the king’s servants who attended him said: “Let beautiful young virgins be sought for the king;
3 and let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather all the beautiful young virgins to1 Shushan the citadel, into the women’s quarters, under the custody of3 Hegai the king’s eunuch, custodian of the women. And let beauty preparations be given them.
