1 Chronicles 11:16 in Context — 1 Chronicles 11
14 Ils se placèrent au milieu du champ, le protégèrent, et battirent les Philistins. Et l’Éternel opéra une grande délivrance.
15 Trois des trente chefs descendirent auprès de David sur le rocher dans la caverne d’Adullam, lorsque le camp des Philistins était dressé dans la vallée des Rephaïm.
16 David était alors dans la forteresse, et il y avait un poste de Philistins à Bethléhem.
17 David eut un désir, et il dit: Qui me fera boire de l’eau de la citerne qui est à la porte de Bethléhem?
18 Alors les trois hommes passèrent au travers du camp des Philistins, et puisèrent de l’eau de la citerne qui est à la porte de Bethléhem. Ils l’apportèrent et la présentèrent à David; mais David ne voulut pas la boire, et il la répandit devant l’Éternel.
