1 Kings 20:29 in Context — 1 Kings 20

27 Les enfants d’Israël furent aussi passés en revue; ils reçurent des vivres, et ils marchèrent à la rencontre des Syriens. Ils campèrent vis-à-vis d’eux, semblables à deux petits troupeaux de chèvres, tandis que les Syriens remplissaient le pays.

28 L’homme de Dieu s’approcha, et dit au roi d’Israël: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Parce que les Syriens ont dit: L’Éternel est un dieu des montagnes et non un dieu des vallées, je livrerai toute cette grande multitude entre tes mains, et vous saurez que je suis l’Éternel.

29 Ils campèrent sept jours en face les uns des autres. Le septième jour, le combat s’engagea, et les enfants d’Israël tuèrent aux Syriens cent mille hommes de pied en un jour.

30 Le reste s’enfuit à la ville d’Aphek, et la muraille tomba sur vingt-sept mille hommes qui restaient. Ben-Hadad s’était réfugié dans la ville, où il allait de chambre en chambre.

31 Ses serviteurs lui dirent: Voici, nous avons appris que les rois de la maison d’Israël sont des rois miséricordieux; nous allons mettre des sacs sur nos reins et des cordes à nos têtes, et nous sortirons vers le roi d’Israël: peut-être qu’il te laissera la vie.
