39 Lorsque le roi passa, il cria vers lui, et dit: Ton serviteur était au milieu du combat; et voici, un homme s’approche et m’amène un homme, en disant: Garde cet homme; s’il vient à manquer, ta vie répondra de sa vie, ou tu paieras un talent d’argent!

40 Et pendant que ton serviteur agissait çà et là, l’homme a disparu. Le roi d’Israël lui dit: C’est là ton jugement; tu l’as prononcé toi-même.

41 Aussitôt le prophète ôta le bandeau de dessus ses yeux, et le roi d’Israël le reconnut pour l’un des prophètes.

42 Il dit alors au roi: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Parce que tu as laissé échapper de tes mains l’homme que j’avais dévoué par interdit, ta vie répondra de sa vie, et ton peuple de son peuple.

43 Le roi d’Israël s’en alla chez lui, triste et irrité, et il arriva à Samarie.
