2 Chronicles 11:14 in Context — 2 Chronicles 11
12 Il mit dans chacune de ces villes des boucliers et des lances, et il les rendit très fortes. Juda et Benjamin étaient à lui.
13 Les sacrificateurs et les Lévites qui se trouvaient dans tout Israël quittèrent leurs demeures pour se rendre auprès de lui;
14 car les Lévites abandonnèrent leurs banlieues et leurs propriétés et vinrent en Juda et à Jérusalem, parce que Jéroboam et ses fils les empêchèrent de remplir leurs fonctions comme sacrificateurs de l’Éternel.
15 Jéroboam établit des sacrificateurs pour les hauts lieux, pour les boucs, et pour les veaux qu’il avait faits.
16 Ceux de toutes les tribus d’Israël qui avaient à cœur de chercher l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël, suivirent les Lévites à Jérusalem pour sacrifier à l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères.
