1 Samuel 23:3 in Context — 1 Samuel 23
1 On vint dire à David: Voici, les Philistins ont attaqué Keïla, et ils pillent les aires.
2 David consulta l’Éternel, en disant: Irai-je, et battrai-je ces Philistins? Et l’Éternel lui répondit: Va, tu battras les Philistins, et tu délivreras Keïla.
3 Mais les gens de David lui dirent: Voici, nous ne sommes pas sans crainte ici même en Juda; que sera-ce si nous allons à Keïla contre les troupes des Philistins?
4 David consulta encore l’Éternel. Et l’Éternel lui répondit: Lève-toi, descends à Keïla, car je livre les Philistins entre tes mains.
5 David alla donc avec ses gens à Keïla, et il se battit contre les Philistins; il emmena leur bétail, et leur fit éprouver une grande défaite. Ainsi David délivra les habitants de Keïla.
