1 Kings 16:9 in Context — 1 Kings 16

7 La parole de l’Éternel s’était manifestée par le prophète Jéhu, fils de Hanani, contre Baescha et contre sa maison, soit à cause de tout le mal qu’il avait fait sous les yeux de l’Éternel, en l’irritant par l’œuvre de ses mains et en devenant semblable à la maison de Jéroboam, soit parce qu’il avait frappé la maison de Jéroboam.

8 La vingt-sixième année d’Asa, roi de Juda, Éla, fils de Baescha, régna sur Israël à Thirtsa. Il régna deux ans.

9 Son serviteur Zimri, chef de la moitié des chars, conspira contre lui. Éla était à Thirtsa, buvant et s’enivrant dans la maison d’Artsa, chef de la maison du roi à Thirtsa.

10 Zimri entra, le frappa et le tua, la vingt-septième année d’Asa, roi de Juda, et il régna à sa place.

11 Lorsqu’il fut roi et qu’il fut assis sur son trône, il frappa toute la maison de Baescha, il ne laissa échapper personne qui lui appartînt, ni parent ni ami.
