וְהַשְׁקוֹת֙
and,drinks_~_served
The abstract noun serving refers to how the drinks were served at the banquet. You can translate it with a verb by saying, “The attendants served wine.”
וְכֵלִ֖ים מִכֵּלִ֣ים שׁוֹנִ֑ים
and,goblets of,goblets different
This could mean that “no two of them were alike.” But you could also just say that the wine was served in “various kinds of golden cups.”

וְיֵ֥ין מַלְכ֛וּת רָ֖ב כְּיַ֥ד הַמֶּֽלֶךְ
and=wine royal lavished according_to,bounty the,king's
This means that King Ahasuerus himself paid for all the wine that the guests drank at his seven-day feast in Susa, and the wine came from his personal supply. Alternate translation: “the king was very generous with the royal wine” or “the king showed a great willingness to give” or “the king provided all of it”
