2 Kings 10:14 in Context — 2 Kings 10
12 Puis il se leva, et partit pour aller à Samarie. Arrivé à une maison de réunion des bergers, sur le chemin,
13 Jéhu trouva les frères d’Achazia, roi de Juda, et il dit: Qui êtes-vous? Ils répondirent: Nous sommes les frères d’Achazia, et nous descendons pour saluer les fils du roi et les fils de la reine.
14 Jéhu dit: Saisissez-les vivants. Et ils les saisirent vivants, et les égorgèrent au nombre de quarante-deux, à la citerne de la maison de réunion; Jéhu n’en laissa échapper aucun.
15 Étant parti de là, il rencontra Jonadab, fils de Récab, qui venait au-devant de lui. Il le salua, et lui dit: Ton cœur est-il sincère, comme mon cœur l’est envers le tien? Et Jonadab répondit: Il l’est. S’il l’est, répliqua Jéhu, donne-moi ta main. Jonadab lui donna la main. Et Jéhu le fit monter auprès de lui dans son char,
16 et dit: Viens avec moi, et tu verras mon zèle pour l’Éternel. Il l’emmena ainsi dans son char.
