1 Kings 20:24 in Context — 1 Kings 20

22 Alors le prophète s’approcha du roi d’Israël, et lui dit: Va, fortifie toi, examine et vois ce que tu as à faire; car, au retour de l’année, le roi de Syrie montera contre toi.

23 Les serviteurs du roi de Syrie lui dirent: Leur dieu est un dieu de montagnes; c’est pourquoi ils ont été plus forts que nous. Mais combattons-les dans la plaine, et l’on verra si nous ne serons pas plus forts qu’eux.

24 Fais encore ceci: ôte chacun des rois de son poste, et remplace-les par des chefs;

25 et forme-toi une armée pareille à celle que tu as perdue, avec autant de chevaux et autant de chars. Puis nous les combattrons dans la plaine, et l’on verra si nous ne serons pas plus forts qu’eux. Il les écouta, et fit ainsi.

26 L’année suivante, Ben-Hadad passa les Syriens en revue, et monta vers Aphek pour combattre Israël.
