Esther 8:2 in Context — Esther 8
1 En ce même jour, le roi Assuérus donna à la reine Esther la maison d’Haman, l’ennemi des Juifs; et Mardochée parut devant le roi, car Esther avait fait connaître la parenté qui l’unissait à elle.
2 Le roi ôta son anneau, qu’il avait repris à Haman, et le donna à Mardochée; Esther, de son côté, établit Mardochée sur la maison d’Haman.
3 Puis Esther parla de nouveau en présence du roi. Elle se jeta à ses pieds, elle pleura, elle le supplia d’empêcher les effets de la méchanceté d’Haman, l’Agaguite, et la réussite de ses projets contre les Juifs.
4 Le roi tendit le sceptre d’or à Esther, qui se releva et resta debout devant le roi.
