2 Chronicles 23:7 in Context — 2 Chronicles 23
5 un autre tiers se tiendra dans la maison du roi, et un tiers à la porte de Jesod. Tout le peuple sera dans les parvis de la maison de l’Éternel.
6 Que personne n’entre dans la maison de l’Éternel, excepté les sacrificateurs et les Lévites de service: ils entreront, car ils sont saints. Et tout le peuple fera la garde de l’Éternel.
7 Les Lévites entoureront le roi de toutes parts, chacun les armes à la main, et l’on donnera la mort à quiconque entrera dans la maison: vous serez près du roi quand il entrera et quand il sortira.
8 Les Lévites et tout Juda exécutèrent tous les ordres qu’avait donnés le sacrificateur Jehojada. Ils prirent chacun leurs gens, ceux qui entraient en service et ceux qui sortaient de service le jour du sabbat; car le sacrificateur Jehojada n’avait exempté aucune des divisions.
9 Le sacrificateur Jehojada remit aux chefs de centaines les lances et les boucliers, grands et petits, qui provenaient du roi David, et qui se trouvaient dans la maison de Dieu.
