2 Kings 11:15 in Context — 2 Kings 11
13 Athalie entendit le bruit des coureurs et du peuple, et elle vint vers le peuple à la maison de l’Éternel.
14 Elle regarda. Et voici, le roi se tenait sur l’estrade, selon l’usage; les chefs et les trompettes étaient près du roi: tout le peuple du pays était dans la joie, et l’on sonnait des trompettes. Athalie déchira ses vêtements, et cria: Conspiration! Conspiration!
15 Alors le sacrificateur Jehojada donna cet ordre aux chefs de centaines, qui étaient à la tête de l’armée: Faites-la sortir en dehors des rangs, et tuez par l’épée quiconque la suivra. Car le sacrificateur avait dit: Qu’elle ne soit pas mise à mort dans la maison de l’Éternel!
16 On lui fit place, et elle se rendit à la maison du roi par le chemin de l’entrée des chevaux: c’est là qu’elle fut tuée.
17 Jehojada traita entre l’Éternel, le roi et le peuple, l’alliance par laquelle ils devaient être le peuple de l’Éternel; il établit aussi l’alliance entre le roi et le peuple.
