Esther 1:18

Likewise shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day
unto the king's princes, which have heard of the deed of the queen,
&c.] From henceforward they will give a like answer to their husbands, when they lay their commands upon them, as Vashti has to the king; they will tell them to their faces they will not obey their orders: thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath;
there will be in wives a general contempt of their husbands, which will cause discord and strife, quarrels, wrath and anger; contempt on one part, wrath on the other, and contention between both.
