2 Chronicles 2:4 in Context — 2 Chronicles 2
2 Salomon compta soixante-dix mille hommes pour porter les fardeaux, quatre-vingt mille pour tailler les pierres dans la montagne, et trois mille six cents pour les surveiller.
3 Salomon envoya dire à Huram, roi de Tyr: Fais pour moi comme tu as fait pour David, mon père, à qui tu as envoyé des cèdres afin qu’il se bâtît une maison d’habitation.
4 Voici, j’élève une maison au nom de l’Éternel, mon Dieu, pour la lui consacrer, pour brûler devant lui le parfum odoriférant, pour présenter continuellement les pains de proposition, et pour offrir les holocaustes du matin et du soir, des sabbats, des nouvelles lunes, et des fêtes de l’Éternel, notre Dieu, suivant une loi perpétuelle pour Israël.
5 La maison que je vais bâtir doit être grande, car notre Dieu est plus grand que tous les dieux.
6 Mais qui a le pouvoir de lui bâtir une maison, puisque les cieux et les cieux des cieux ne peuvent le contenir? Et qui suis-je pour lui bâtir une maison, si ce n’est pour faire brûler des parfums devant lui?
