2 Kings 4:27 in Context — 2 Kings 4

25 Elle partit donc et se rendit vers l’homme de Dieu sur la montagne du Carmel. L’homme de Dieu, l’ayant aperçue de loin, dit à Guéhazi, son serviteur: Voici cette Sunamite!

26 Maintenant, cours donc à sa rencontre, et dis-lui: Te portes-tu bien? Ton mari et ton enfant se portent-ils bien? Elle répondit: Bien.

27 Et dès qu’elle fut arrivée auprès de l’homme de Dieu sur la montagne, elle embrassa ses pieds. Guéhazi s’approcha pour la repousser. Mais l’homme de Dieu dit: Laisse-la, car son âme est dans l’amertume, et l’Éternel me l’a caché et ne me l’a point fait connaître.

28 Alors elle dit: Ai-je demandé un fils à mon seigneur? N’ai-je pas dit: Ne me trompe pas?

29 Et Élisée dit à Guéhazi: Ceins tes reins, prends mon bâton dans ta main, et pars. Si tu rencontres quelqu’un, ne le salue pas; et si quelqu’un te salue, ne lui réponds pas. Tu mettras mon bâton sur le visage de l’enfant.
