Esther 1:20-22

New Life Version

²⁰ Then the king’s word will be heard through all his great nation, and all women will give honor to their husbands, from the greatest to the least.” ²¹ What was said pleased the king and the princes, and the king did as Memucan said. ²² So he sent letters to all parts of the king’s nation, to each land in its own writing and to every people in their own language. The letters said that every man should rule in his own house and speak there in the language of his own people.
