1 Kings 13:3 in Context — 1 Kings 13

1 Voici, un homme de Dieu arriva de Juda à Béthel, par la parole de l’Éternel, pendant que Jéroboam se tenait à l’autel pour brûler des parfums.

2 Il cria contre l’autel, par la parole de l’Éternel, et il dit: Autel! Autel! Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, il naîtra un fils à la maison de David; son nom sera Josias; il immolera sur toi les prêtres des hauts lieux qui brûlent sur toi des parfums, et l’on brûlera sur toi des ossements d’hommes!

3 Et le même jour il donna un signe, en disant: C’est ici le signe que l’Éternel a parlé: Voici, l’autel se fendra, et la cendre qui est dessus sera répandue.

4 Lorsque le roi entendit la parole que l’homme de Dieu avait criée contre l’autel de Béthel, il avança la main de dessus l’autel, en disant: Saisissez-le! Et la main que Jéroboam avait étendue contre lui devint sèche, et il ne put la ramener à soi.

5 L’autel se fendit, et la cendre qui était dessus fut répandue, selon le signe qu’avait donné l’homme de Dieu, par la parole de l’Éternel.
