2 Chronicles 12:7 in Context — 2 Chronicles 12
5 Alors Schemaeja, le prophète, se rendit auprès de Roboam et des chefs de Juda qui s’étaient retirés dans Jérusalem à l’approche de Schischak, et il leur dit: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Vous m’avez abandonné; je vous abandonne aussi, et je vous livre entre les mains de Schischak.
6 Les chefs d’Israël et le roi s’humilièrent et dirent: L’Éternel est juste!
7 Et quand l’Éternel vit qu’ils s’humiliaient, la parole de l’Éternel fut ainsi adressée à Schemaeja: Ils se sont humiliés, je ne les détruirai pas, je ne tarderai pas à les secourir, et ma colère ne se répandra pas sur Jérusalem par Schischak;
8 mais ils lui seront assujettis, et ils sauront ce que c’est que me servir ou servir les royaumes des autres pays.
9 Schischak, roi d’Égypte, monta contre Jérusalem. Il prit les trésors de la maison de l’Éternel et les trésors de la maison du roi, il prit tout. Il prit les boucliers d’or que Salomon avait faits.
