Esther 9:5 in Context — Esther 9
3 Et tous les chefs des provinces, les satrapes, les gouverneurs, les fonctionnaires du roi, soutinrent les Juifs, à cause de l’effroi que leur inspirait Mardochée.
4 Car Mardochée était puissant dans la maison du roi, et sa renommée se répandait dans toutes les provinces, parce qu’il devenait de plus en plus puissant.
5 Les Juifs frappèrent à coups d’épée tous leurs ennemis, ils les tuèrent et les firent périr; ils traitèrent comme il leur plut ceux qui leur étaient hostiles.
6 Dans Suse, la capitale, les Juifs tuèrent et firent périr cinq cents hommes,
7 et ils égorgèrent Parschandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,
