2 Chronicles 30:8 in Context — 2 Chronicles 30

6 Les coureurs allèrent avec les lettres du roi et de ses chefs dans tout Israël et Juda. Et, d’après l’ordre du roi, ils dirent: Enfants d’Israël, revenez à l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Abraham, d’Isaac et d’Israël, afin qu’il revienne à vous, reste échappé de la main des rois d’Assyrie.

7 Ne soyez pas comme vos pères et comme vos frères, qui ont péché contre l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères, et qu’il a livrés à la désolation, comme vous le voyez.

8 Ne raidissez donc pas votre cou, comme vos pères; donnez la main à l’Éternel, venez à son sanctuaire qu’il a sanctifié pour toujours, et servez l’Éternel, votre Dieu, pour que sa colère ardente se détourne de vous.

9 Si vous revenez à l’Éternel, vos frères et vos fils trouveront miséricorde auprès de ceux qui les ont emmenés captifs, et ils reviendront dans ce pays; car l’Éternel, votre Dieu, est compatissant et miséricordieux, et il ne détournera pas sa face de vous, si vous revenez à lui.

10 Les coureurs allèrent ainsi de ville en ville dans le pays d’Éphraïm et de Manassé, et jusqu’à Zabulon. Mais on se riait et l’on se moquait d’eux.
