2 Chronicles 11:16 in Context — 2 Chronicles 11
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.
17 Ils donnèrent ainsi de la force au royaume de Juda, et affermirent Roboam, fils de Salomon, pendant trois ans; car ils marchèrent pendant trois ans dans la voie de David et de Salomon.
18 Roboam prit pour femme Mahalath, fille de Jerimoth, fils de David et d’Abichaïl, fille d’Éliab, fils d’Isaï.
