2 Kings 7:8 in Context — 2 Kings 7

6 Le Seigneur avait fait entendre dans le camp des Syriens un bruit de chars et un bruit de chevaux, le bruit d’une grande armée, et ils s’étaient dit l’un à l’autre: Voici, le roi d’Israël a pris à sa solde contre nous les rois des Héthiens et les rois des Égyptiens pour venir nous attaquer.

7 Et ils se levèrent et prirent la fuite au crépuscule, abandonnant leurs tentes, leurs chevaux et leurs ânes, le camp tel qu’il était, et ils s’enfuirent pour sauver leur vie.

8 Les lépreux, étant arrivés à l’entrée du camp, pénétrèrent dans une tente, mangèrent et burent, et en emportèrent de l’argent, de l’or, et des vêtements, qu’ils allèrent cacher. Ils revinrent, pénétrèrent dans une autre tente, et en emportèrent des objets qu’ils allèrent cacher.

9 Puis ils se dirent l’un à l’autre: Nous n’agissons pas bien! Cette journée est une journée de bonne nouvelle; si nous gardons le silence et si nous attendons jusqu’à la lumière du matin, le châtiment nous atteindra. Venez maintenant, et allons informer la maison du roi.

10 Ils partirent, et ils appelèrent les gardes de la porte de la ville, auxquels ils firent ce rapport: Nous sommes entrés dans le camp des Syriens, et voici, il n’y a personne, on n’y entend aucune voix d’homme; il n’y a que des chevaux attachés et des ânes attachés, et les tentes comme elles étaient.
