2 Kings 17:27 in Context — 2 Kings 17
25 Lorsqu’ils commencèrent à y habiter, ils ne craignaient pas l’Éternel, et l’Éternel envoya contre eux des lions qui les tuaient.
26 On dit au roi d’Assyrie: Les nations que tu as transportées et établies dans les villes de Samarie ne connaissent pas la manière de servir le dieu du pays, et il a envoyé contre elles des lions qui les font mourir, parce qu’elles ne connaissent pas la manière de servir le dieu du pays.
27 Le roi d’Assyrie donna cet ordre: Faites-y aller l’un des prêtres que vous avez emmenés de là en captivité; qu’il parte pour s’y établir, et qu’il leur enseigne la manière de servir le dieu du pays.
28 Un des prêtres qui avaient été emmenés captifs de Samarie vint s’établir à Béthel, et leur enseigna comment ils devaient craindre l’Éternel.
29 Mais les nations firent chacune leurs dieux dans les villes qu’elles habitaient, et les placèrent dans les maisons des hauts lieux bâties par les Samaritains.
