2 Kings 19:16 in Context — 2 Kings 19
14 Ézéchias prit la lettre de la main des messagers, et la lut. Puis il monta à la maison de l’Éternel, et la déploya devant l’Éternel,
15 à qui il adressa cette prière: Éternel, Dieu d’Israël, assis sur les chérubins! C’est toi qui es le seul Dieu de tous les royaumes de la terre, c’est toi qui as fait les cieux et la terre.
16 Éternel! Incline ton oreille, et écoute. Éternel! Ouvre tes yeux, et regarde. Entends les paroles de Sanchérib, qui a envoyé Rabschaké pour insulter au Dieu vivant.
17 Il est vrai, ô Éternel! Que les rois d’Assyrie ont détruit les nations et ravagé leurs pays,
18 et qu’ils ont jeté leurs dieux dans le feu; mais ce n’étaient point des dieux, c’étaient des ouvrages de mains d’homme, du bois et de la pierre; et ils les ont anéantis.
