1 Samuel 26:15 in Context — 1 Samuel 26
13 David passa de l’autre côté, et s’arrêta au loin sur le sommet de la montagne, à une grande distance du camp.
14 Et il cria au peuple et à Abner, fils de Ner: Ne répondras-tu pas, Abner? Abner répondit: Qui es-tu, toi qui pousses des cris vers le roi?
15 Et David dit à Abner: N’es-tu pas un homme? Et qui est ton pareil en Israël? Pourquoi donc n’as-tu pas gardé le roi, ton maître? Car quelqu’un du peuple est venu pour tuer le roi, ton maître.
16 Ce que tu as fait là n’est pas bien. L’Éternel est vivant! Vous méritez la mort, pour n’avoir pas veillé sur votre maître, sur l’oint de l’Éternel. Regarde maintenant où sont la lance du roi et la cruche d’eau, qui étaient à son chevet!
17 Saül reconnut la voix de David, et dit: Est-ce bien ta voix, mon fils David? Et David répondit: C’est ma voix, ô roi, mon seigneur!
