2 Chronicles 30:17 in Context — 2 Chronicles 30
15 Ils immolèrent ensuite la Pâque le quatorzième jour du second mois. Les sacrificateurs et les Lévites, saisis de confusion, s’étaient sanctifiés, et ils offrirent des holocaustes dans la maison de l’Éternel.
16 Ils occupaient leur place ordinaire, conformément à la loi de Moïse, homme de Dieu, et les sacrificateurs répandaient le sang, qu’ils recevaient de la main des Lévites.
17 Comme il y avait dans l’assemblée beaucoup de gens qui ne s’étaient pas sanctifiés, les Lévites se chargèrent d’immoler les victimes de la Pâque pour tous ceux qui n’étaient pas purs, afin de les consacrer à l’Éternel.
18 Car une grande partie du peuple, beaucoup de ceux d’Éphraïm, de Manassé, d’Issacar et de Zabulon, ne s’étaient pas purifiés, et ils mangèrent la Pâque sans se conformer à ce qui est écrit. Mais Ézéchias pria pour eux, en disant: Veuille l’Éternel, qui est bon, pardonner
19 à tous ceux qui ont appliqué leur cœur à chercher Dieu, l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères, quoiqu’ils n’aient pas pratiqué la sainte purification!
