2 Kings 25:23 in Context — 2 Kings 25

21 Le roi de Babylone les frappa et les fit mourir à Ribla, dans le pays de Hamath.

22 Ainsi Juda fut emmené captif loin de son pays. Et Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, plaça le reste du peuple, qu’il laissa dans le pays de Juda, sous le commandement de Guedalia, fils d’Achikam, fils de Schaphan.

23 Lorsque tous les chefs des troupes eurent appris, eux et leurs hommes, que le roi de Babylone avait établi Guedalia pour gouverneur, ils se rendirent auprès de Guedalia à Mitspa, savoir Ismaël, fils de Nethania, Jochanan, fils de Karéach, Seraja, fils de Thanhumeth, de Nethopha, et Jaazania, fils du Maacathien, eux et leurs hommes.

24 Guedalia leur jura, à eux et à leurs hommes, et leur dit: Ne craignez rien de la part des serviteurs des Chaldéens; demeurez dans le pays, servez le roi de Babylone, et vous vous en trouverez bien.

25 Mais au septième mois, Ismaël, fils de Nethania, fils d’Élischama, de la race royale, vint, accompagné de dix hommes, et ils frappèrent mortellement Guedalia, ainsi que les Juifs et les Chaldéens qui étaient avec lui à Mitspa.
