2 Chronicles 32:17 in Context — 2 Chronicles 32
15 Qu’Ézéchias ne vous séduise donc point et qu’il ne vous abuse point ainsi; ne vous fiez pas à lui! Car aucun dieu d’aucune nation ni d’aucun royaume n’a pu délivrer son peuple de ma main et de la main de mes pères: combien moins votre Dieu vous délivrera-t-il de ma main?
16 Les serviteurs de Sanchérib parlèrent encore contre l’Éternel Dieu, et contre Ézéchias, son serviteur.
17 Et il envoya une lettre insultante pour l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël, en s’exprimant ainsi contre lui: De même que les dieux des nations des autres pays n’ont pu délivrer leur peuple de ma main, de même le Dieu d’Ézéchias ne délivrera pas son peuple de ma main.
18 Les serviteurs de Sanchérib crièrent à haute voix en langue judaïque, afin de jeter l’effroi et l’épouvante parmi le peuple de Jérusalem qui était sur la muraille, et de pouvoir ainsi s’emparer de la ville.
19 Ils parlèrent du Dieu de Jérusalem comme des dieux des peuples de la terre, ouvrages de mains d’homme.
