2 Chronicles 25:20 in Context — 2 Chronicles 25

18 Et Joas, roi d’Israël, fit dire à Amatsia, roi de Juda: L’épine du Liban envoya dire au cèdre du Liban: Donne ta fille pour femme à mon fils! Et les bêtes sauvages qui sont au Liban passèrent et foulèrent l’épine.

19 Tu as battu les Édomites, penses-tu, et ton cœur s’élève pour te glorifier. Reste maintenant chez toi. Pourquoi t’engager dans une malheureuse entreprise, qui amènerait ta ruine et celle de Juda?

20 Mais Amatsia ne l’écouta pas, car Dieu avait résolu de les livrer entre les mains de l’ennemi, parce qu’ils avaient recherché les dieux d’Édom.

21 Et Joas, roi d’Israël, monta; et ils se virent en face, lui et Amatsia, roi de Juda, à Beth-Schémesch, qui est à Juda.

22 Juda fut battu par Israël, et chacun s’enfuit dans sa tente.
