2 Kings 4:2 in Context — 2 Kings 4
1 Une femme d’entre les femmes des fils des prophètes cria à Élisée, en disant: Ton serviteur mon mari est mort, et tu sais que ton serviteur craignait l’Éternel; or le créancier est venu pour prendre mes deux enfants et en faire ses esclaves.
2 Élisée lui dit: Que puis-je faire pour toi? Dis-moi, qu’as-tu à la maison? Elle répondit: Ta servante n’a rien du tout à la maison qu’un vase d’huile.
3 Et il dit: Va demander au-dehors des vases chez tous tes voisins, des vases vides, et n’en demande pas un petit nombre.
4 Quand tu seras rentrée, tu fermeras la porte sur toi et sur tes enfants; tu verseras dans tous ces vases, et tu mettras de côté ceux qui seront pleins.
