Esther 1:5-7
Living Bible
5 When it was all over, the king gave a special party for the palace servants and officials—janitors and cabinet officials alike—for seven days of revelry, held in the courtyard of the palace garden. 6 The decorations were green, white, and blue, fastened with purple ribbons[a] tied to silver rings imbedded in marble pillars. Gold and silver benches stood on pavements of black, red, white, and yellow marble. 7 Drinks were served in gold goblets of many designs, and there was an abundance of royal wine, for the king was feeling very generous.
