2 Kings 9:24 in Context — 2 Kings 9
22 Dès que Joram vit Jéhu, il dit: Est-ce la paix, Jéhu? Jéhu répondit: Quoi, la paix! Tant que durent les prostitutions de Jézabel, ta mère, et la multitude de ses sortilèges!
23 Joram tourna bride et s’enfuit, et il dit à Achazia: Trahison, Achazia!
24 Mais Jéhu saisit son arc, et il frappa Joram entre les épaules: la flèche sortit par le cœur, et Joram s’affaissa dans son char.
25 Jéhu dit à son officier Bidkar: Prends-le, et jette-le dans le champ de Naboth de Jizreel; car souviens-t’en, lorsque moi et toi, nous étions ensemble à cheval derrière Achab, son père, l’Éternel prononça contre lui cette sentence:
26 J’ai vu hier le sang de Naboth et le sang de ses fils, dit l’Éternel, et je te rendrai la pareille dans ce champ même, dit l’Éternel! Prends-le donc, et jette-le dans le champ, selon la parole de l’Éternel.
