2 Kings 20:9 in Context — 2 Kings 20
7 Ésaïe dit: Prenez une masse de figues. On la prit, et on l’appliqua sur l’ulcère. Et Ézéchias guérit.
8 Ézéchias avait dit à Ésaïe: A quel signe connaîtrai-je que l’Éternel me guérira, et que je monterai le troisième jour à la maison de l’Éternel?
9 Et Ésaïe dit: Voici, de la part de l’Éternel, le signe auquel tu connaîtras que l’Éternel accomplira la parole qu’il a prononcée: L’ombre avancera-t-elle de dix degrés, ou reculera-t-elle de dix degrés?
10 Ézéchias répondit: C’est peu de chose que l’ombre avance de dix degrés; mais plutôt qu’elle recule de dix degrés.
11 Alors Ésaïe, le prophète, invoqua l’Éternel, qui fit reculer l’ombre de dix degrés sur les degrés d’Achaz, où elle était descendue.
