2 Kings 21:7 in Context — 2 Kings 21
5 Il bâtit des autels à toute l’armée des cieux dans les deux parvis de la maison de l’Éternel.
6 Il fit passer son fils par le feu; il observait les nuages et les serpents pour en tirer des pronostics, et il établit des gens qui évoquaient les esprits et qui prédisaient l’avenir. Il fit de plus en plus ce qui est mal aux yeux de l’Éternel, afin de l’irriter.
7 Il mit l’idole d’Astarté, qu’il avait faite, dans la maison de laquelle l’Éternel avait dit à David et à Salomon, son fils: C’est dans cette maison, et c’est dans Jérusalem, que j’ai choisie parmi toutes les tribus d’Israël, que je veux à toujours placer mon nom.
8 Je ne ferai plus errer le pied d’Israël hors du pays que j’ai donné à ses pères, pourvu seulement qu’ils aient soin de mettre en pratique tout ce que je leur ai commandé et toute la loi que leur a prescrite mon serviteur Moïse.
9 Mais ils n’obéirent point; et Manassé fut cause qu’ils s’égarèrent et firent le mal plus que les nations que l’Éternel avait détruites devant les enfants d’Israël.
