Esther 9:27 in Context — Esther 9

25 mais Esther s’étant présentée devant le roi, le roi ordonna par écrit de faire retomber sur la tête d’Haman le méchant projet qu’il avait formé contre les Juifs, et de le pendre au bois, lui et ses fils.

26 C’est pourquoi on appela ces jours Purim, du nom de pur. D’après tout le contenu de cette lettre, d’après ce qu’ils avaient eux-mêmes vu et ce qui leur était arrivé,

27 les Juifs prirent pour eux, pour leur postérité, et pour tous ceux qui s’attacheraient à eux, la résolution et l’engagement irrévocables de célébrer chaque année ces deux jours, selon le mode prescrit et au temps fixé.

28 Ces jours devaient être rappelés et célébrés de génération en génération, dans chaque famille, dans chaque province et dans chaque ville; et ces jours de Purim ne devaient jamais être abolis au milieu des Juifs, ni le souvenir s’en effacer parmi leurs descendants.

29 La reine Esther, fille d’Abichaïl, et le Juif Mardochée écrivirent d’une manière pressante une seconde fois pour confirmer la lettre sur les Purim.
