2 Chronicles 25:15 in Context — 2 Chronicles 25
13 Cependant, les gens de la troupe qu’Amatsia avait renvoyés pour qu’ils n’allassent pas à la guerre avec lui firent une invasion dans les villes de Juda depuis Samarie jusqu’à Beth-Horon, y tuèrent trois mille personnes, et enlevèrent de nombreuses dépouilles.
14 Lorsqu’Amatsia fut de retour après la défaite des Édomites, il fit venir les dieux des fils de Séir, et se les établit pour dieux; il se prosterna devant eux, et leur offrit des parfums.
15 Alors la colère de l’Éternel s’enflamma contre Amatsia, et il envoya vers lui un prophète, qui lui dit: Pourquoi as-tu recherché les dieux de ce peuple, quand ils n’ont pu délivrer leur peuple de ta main?
16 Comme il parlait, Amatsia lui dit: Est-ce que nous t’avons fait conseiller du roi? Retire-toi! Pourquoi veux-tu qu’on te frappe? Le prophète se retira, en disant: Je sais que Dieu a résolu de te détruire, parce que tu as fait cela et que tu n’as pas écouté mon conseil.
17 Après s’être consulté, Amatsia, roi de Juda, envoya dire à Joas, fils de Joachaz, fils de Jéhu, roi d’Israël: Viens, voyons-nous en face!
