1 Kings 8:38 in Context — 1 Kings 8
36 exauce-les des cieux, pardonne le péché de tes serviteurs et de ton peuple d’Israël, à qui tu enseigneras la bonne voie dans laquelle ils doivent marcher, et fais venir la pluie sur la terre que tu as donnée en héritage à ton peuple!
37 Quand la famine, la peste, la rouille, la nielle, les sauterelles d’une espèce ou d’une autre, seront dans le pays, quand l’ennemi assiégera ton peuple dans son pays, dans ses portes, quand il y aura des fléaux ou des maladies quelconques;
38 si un homme, si tout ton peuple d’Israël fait entendre des prières et des supplications, et que chacun reconnaisse la plaie de son cœur et étende les mains vers cette maison,
39 exauce-le des cieux, du lieu de ta demeure, et pardonne; agis, et rends à chacun selon ses voies, toi qui connais le cœur de chacun, car seul tu connais le cœur de tous les enfants des hommes,
40 et ils te craindront tout le temps qu’ils vivront dans le pays que tu as donné à nos pères!
