2 Kings 13:18 in Context — 2 Kings 13
16 Puis Élisée dit au roi d’Israël: Bande l’arc avec ta main. Et quand il l’eut bandé de sa main, Élisée mit ses mains sur les mains du roi,
17 et il dit: Ouvre la fenêtre à l’orient. Et il l’ouvrit. Élisée dit: Tire. Et il tira. Élisée dit: C’est une flèche de délivrance de la part de l’Éternel, une flèche de délivrance contre les Syriens; tu battras les Syriens à Aphek jusqu’à leur extermination.
18 Élisée dit encore: Prends les flèches. Et il les prit. Élisée dit au roi d’Israël: Frappe contre terre. Et il frappa trois fois, et s’arrêta.
19 L’homme de Dieu s’irrita contre lui, et dit: Il fallait frapper cinq ou six fois; alors tu aurais battu les Syriens jusqu’à leur extermination; maintenant tu les battras trois fois.
20 Élisée mourut, et on l’enterra. L’année suivante, des troupes de Moabites pénétrèrent dans le pays.
