Esther 1:3 in Context — Esther 1

1 C’était du temps d’Assuérus, de cet Assuérus qui régnait depuis l’Inde jusqu’en Éthiopie sur cent vingt-sept provinces;

2 et le roi Assuérus était alors assis sur son trône royal à Suse, dans la capitale.

3 La troisième année de son règne, il fit un festin à tous ses princes et à ses serviteurs; les commandants de l’armée des Perses et des Mèdes, les grands et les chefs des provinces furent réunis en sa présence.

4 Il montra la splendide richesse de son royaume et l’éclatante magnificence de sa grandeur pendant nombre de jours, pendant cent quatre-vingts jours.

5 Lorsque ces jours furent écoulés, le roi fit pour tout le peuple qui se trouvait à Suse, la capitale, depuis le plus grand jusqu’au plus petit, un festin qui dura sept jours, dans la cour du jardin de la maison royale.
