1 Kings 21:20 in Context — 1 Kings 21
18 Lève-toi, descends au-devant d’Achab, roi d’Israël à Samarie; le voilà dans la vigne de Naboth, où il est descendu pour en prendre possession.
19 Tu lui diras: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: N’es-tu pas un assassin et un voleur? Et tu lui diras: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Au lieu même où les chiens ont léché le sang de Naboth, les chiens lécheront aussi ton propre sang.
20 Achab dit à Élie: M’as-tu trouvé, mon ennemi? Et il répondit: Je t’ai trouvé, parce que tu t’es vendu pour faire ce qui est mal aux yeux de l’Éternel.
21 Voici, je vais faire venir le malheur sur toi; je te balaierai, j’exterminerai quiconque appartient à Achab, celui qui est esclave et celui qui est libre en Israël,
22 et je rendrai ta maison semblable à la maison de Jéroboam, fils de Nebath, et à la maison de Baescha, fils d’Achija, parce que tu m’as irrité et que tu as fait pécher Israël.
