And the angel said to me,“ Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me,“ These are the true words of God.”

“ The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son,and sent his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they would not come.Again he sent other servants, saying,‘ Tell those who are invited,“ See, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves have been slaughtered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding feast.”’

When the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from( though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom

Drinks were served in golden vessels, vessels of different kinds, and the royal wine was lavished according to the bounty of the king.And drinking was according to this edict:“ There is no compulsion.” For the king had given orders to all the staff of his palace to do as each man desired.Queen Vashti also gave a feast for the women in the palace that belonged to King Ahasuerus.On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha and Abagtha, Zethar and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus,to bring Queen Vashti before the king with her royal crown, in order to show the peoples and the princes her beauty, for she was lovely to look at.But Queen Vashti refused to come at the king’s command delivered by the eunuchs. At this the king became enraged, and his anger burned within him.Then the king said to the wise men who knew the times( for this was the king’s procedure toward all who were versed in law and judgment,the men next to him being Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king’s face, and sat first in the kingdom):“ According to the law, what is to be done to Queen Vashti, because she has not performed the command of King Ahasuerus delivered by the eunuchs?”Then Memucan said in the presence of the king and the officials,“ Not only against the king has Queen Vashti done wrong, but also against all the officials and all the peoples who are in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus.For the queen’s behavior will be made known to all women, causing them to look at their husbands with contempt, since they will say,‘ King Ahasuerus commanded Queen Vashti to be brought before him, and she did not come.’This very day the noble women of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen’s behavior will say the same to all the king’s officials, and there will be contempt and wrath in plenty.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 when the decree made by the king is proclaimed throughout all his kingdom, for it is vast, all women will give honor to their husbands, high and low alike.”This advice pleased the king and the princes, and the king did as Memucan proposed.He sent letters to all the royal provinces, to every province in its own script and to every people in its own language, that every man be master in his own household and speak according to the language of his people.

So Laban gathered together all the people of the place and made a feast.
