9 La reine Vasthi fit aussi un festin pour les femmes dans la maison royale du roi Assuérus.
10 Le septième jour, comme le cœur du roi était réjoui par le vin, il ordonna à Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zéthar et Carcas, les sept eunuques qui servaient devant le roi Assuérus,
11 d’amener en sa présence la reine Vasthi, avec la couronne royale, pour montrer sa beauté aux peuples et aux grands, car elle était belle de figure.
12 Mais la reine Vasthi refusa de venir, quand elle reçut par les eunuques l’ordre du roi. Et le roi fut très irrité, il fut enflammé de colère.
13 Alors le roi s’adressa aux sages qui avaient la connaissance des temps. Car ainsi se traitaient les affaires du roi, devant tous ceux qui connaissaient les lois et le droit.
