2 Lorsque le roi vit la reine Esther debout dans la cour, elle trouva grâce à ses yeux; et le roi tendit à Esther le sceptre d’or qu’il tenait à la main. Esther s’approcha, et toucha le bout du sceptre.

3 Le roi lui dit: Qu’as-tu, reine Esther, et que demandes-tu? Quand ce serait la moitié du royaume, elle te serait donnée.

4 Esther répondit: Si le roi le trouve bon, que le roi vienne aujourd’hui avec Haman au festin que je lui ai préparé.

5 Et le roi dit: Allez tout de suite chercher Haman, comme le désire Esther. Le roi se rendit avec Haman au festin qu’avait préparé Esther.

6 Et pendant qu’on buvait le vin, le roi dit à Esther: Quelle est ta demande? Elle te sera accordée. Que désires-tu? Quand ce serait la moitié du royaume, tu l’obtiendras.
