2 Chronicles 23:17 in Context — 2 Chronicles 23
15 On lui fit place, et elle se rendit à la maison du roi par l’entrée de la porte des chevaux: c’est là qu’ils lui donnèrent la mort.
16 Jehojada traita entre lui, tout le peuple et le roi, une alliance par laquelle ils devaient être le peuple de l’Éternel.
17 Tout le peuple entra dans la maison de Baal, et ils la démolirent; ils brisèrent ses autels et ses images, et ils tuèrent devant les autels Matthan, prêtre de Baal.
18 Jehojada remit les fonctions de la maison de l’Éternel entre les mains des sacrificateurs, des Lévites, que David avait distribués dans la maison de l’Éternel pour qu’ils offrissent des holocaustes à l’Éternel, comme il est écrit dans la loi de Moïse, au milieu des réjouissances et des chants, d’après les ordonnances de David.
19 Il plaça les portiers aux portes de la maison de l’Éternel, afin qu’il n’entrât aucune personne souillée de quelque manière que ce fût.
