Esther 9:18 in Context — Esther 9

16 Les autres Juifs qui étaient dans les provinces du roi se rassemblèrent et défendirent leur vie; ils se procurèrent du repos en se délivrant de leurs ennemis, et ils tuèrent soixante-quinze mille de ceux qui leur étaient hostiles. Mais ils ne mirent pas la main au pillage.

17 Ces choses arrivèrent le treizième jour du mois d’Adar. Les Juifs se reposèrent le quatorzième, et ils en firent un jour de festin et de joie.

18 Ceux qui se trouvaient à Suse, s’étant rassemblés le treizième jour et le quatorzième jour, se reposèrent le quinzième, et ils en firent un jour de festin et de joie.

19 C’est pourquoi les Juifs de la campagne, qui habitent des villes sans murailles, font du quatorzième jour du mois d’Adar un jour de joie, de festin et de fête, où l’on s’envoie des portions les uns aux autres.

20 Mardochée écrivit ces choses, et il envoya des lettres à tous les Juifs qui étaient dans toutes les provinces du roi Assuérus, auprès et au loin.
