2 Chronicles 21:12 in Context — 2 Chronicles 21
10 La rébellion d’Édom contre l’autorité de Juda a duré jusqu’à ce jour. Libna se révolta dans le même temps contre son autorité, parce qu’il avait abandonné l’Éternel, le Dieu de ses pères.
11 Joram fit même des hauts lieux dans les montagnes de Juda; il poussa les habitants de Jérusalem à la prostitution, et il séduisit Juda.
12 Il lui vint un écrit du prophète Élie, disant: Ainsi parle l’Éternel, le Dieu de David, ton père: Parce que tu n’as pas marché dans les voies de Josaphat, ton père, et dans les voies d’Asa, roi de Juda,
13 mais que tu as marché dans la voie des rois d’Israël; parce que tu as entraîné à la prostitution Juda et les habitants de Jérusalem, comme l’a fait la maison d’Achab à l’égard d’Israël; et parce que tu as fait mourir tes frères, meilleurs que toi, la maison même de ton père;
14 voici, l’Éternel frappera ton peuple d’une grande plaie, tes fils, tes femmes, et tout ce qui t’appartient;
