Esther 1:7 in Context — Esther 1
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.
6 Des tentures blanches, vertes et bleues, étaient attachées par des cordons de byssus et de pourpre à des anneaux d’argent et à des colonnes de marbre. Des lits d’or et d’argent reposaient sur un pavé de porphyre, de marbre, de nacre et de pierres noires.
7 On servait à boire dans des vases d’or, de différentes espèces, et il y avait abondance de vin royal, grâce à la libéralité du roi.
8 Mais on ne forçait personne à boire, car le roi avait ordonné à tous les gens de sa maison de se conformer à la volonté de chacun.
9 La reine Vasthi fit aussi un festin pour les femmes dans la maison royale du roi Assuérus.
