Esther 7:2-4
Louis Segond
2 Ce second jour, le roi dit encore à Esther, pendant qu'on buvait le vin: Quelle est ta demande, reine Esther? Elle te sera accordée. Que désires-tu? Quand ce serait la moitié du royaume, tu l'obtiendras.
3 La reine Esther répondit: Si j'ai trouvé grâce à tes yeux, ô roi, et si le roi le trouve bon, accorde-moi la vie, voilà ma demande, et sauve mon peuple, voilà mon désir!
4 Car nous sommes vendus, moi et mon peuple, pour être détruits, égorgés, anéantis. Encore si nous étions vendus pour devenir esclaves et servantes, je me tairais, mais l'ennemi ne saurait compenser le dommage fait au roi.

Esther 7:2-4
New International Version
2 and as they were drinking wine(A) on the second day, the king again asked, “Queen Esther, what is your petition? It will be given you. What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom,(B) it will be granted.(C)”
3 Then Queen Esther answered, “If I have found favor(D) with you, Your Majesty, and if it pleases you, grant me my life—this is my petition. And spare my people—this is my request. 4 For I and my people have been sold to be destroyed, killed and annihilated.(E) If we had merely been sold as male and female slaves, I would have kept quiet, because no such distress would justify disturbing the king.[a]”
