1 Kings 22:36 in Context — 1 Kings 22
34 Alors un homme tira de son arc au hasard, et frappa le roi d’Israël au défaut de la cuirasse. Le roi dit à celui qui dirigeait son char: Tourne, et fais-moi sortir du champ de bataille, car je suis blessé.
35 Le combat devint acharné ce jour-là. Le roi fut retenu dans son char en face des Syriens, et il mourut le soir. Le sang de la blessure coula dans l’intérieur du char.
36 Au coucher du soleil, on cria par tout le camp: Chacun à sa ville et chacun dans son pays!
37 Ainsi mourut le roi, qui fut ramené à Samarie; et on enterra le roi à Samarie.
38 Lorsqu’on lava le char à l’étang de Samarie, les chiens léchèrent le sang d’Achab, et les prostituées s’y baignèrent, selon la parole que l’Éternel avait prononcée.
