2 Kings 6:17 in Context — 2 Kings 6
15 Le serviteur de l’homme de Dieu se leva de bon matin et sortit; et voici, une troupe entourait la ville, avec des chevaux et des chars. Et le serviteur dit à l’homme de Dieu: Ah? Mon seigneur, comment ferons-nous!
16 Il répondit: Ne crains point, car ceux qui sont avec nous sont en plus grand nombre que ceux qui sont avec eux.
17 Élisée pria, et dit: Éternel, ouvre ses yeux, pour qu’il voie. Et l’Éternel ouvrit les yeux du serviteur, qui vit la montagne pleine de chevaux et de chars de feu autour d’Élisée.
18 Les Syriens descendirent vers Élisée. Il adressa alors cette prière à l’Éternel: Daigne frapper d’aveuglement cette nation! Et l’Éternel les frappa d’aveuglement, selon la parole d’Élisée.
19 Élisée leur dit: Ce n’est pas ici le chemin, et ce n’est pas ici la ville; suivez-moi, et je vous conduirai vers l’homme que vous cherchez. Et il les conduisit à Samarie.
