וְנִשְׁמַ֤ע פִּתְגָם֙ הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יַעֲשֶׂ֖ה בְּכָל מַלְכוּת֑וֹ כִּ֥י רַבָּ֖ה הִ֑יא וְכָל הַנָּשִׁ֛ים יִתְּנ֥וּ יְקָ֖ר לְבַעְלֵיהֶ֑ן לְמִגָּד֖וֹל וְעַד קָטָֽן׃

King James Version (KJV)

And when the king's decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small.

Modern English

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.
