2 Samuel 13:34 in Context — 2 Samuel 13

32 Jonadab, fils de Schimea, frère de David, prit la parole et dit: Que mon seigneur ne pense point que tous les jeunes gens, fils du roi, ont été tués, car Amnon seul est mort; et c’est l’effet d’une résolution d’Absalom, depuis le jour où Amnon a déshonoré Tamar, sa sœur.

33 Que le roi mon seigneur ne se tourmente donc point dans l’idée que tous les fils du roi sont morts, car Amnon seul est mort.

34 Absalom prit la fuite. Or le jeune homme placé en sentinelle leva les yeux et regarda. Et voici, une grande troupe venait par le chemin qui était derrière lui, du côté de la montagne.

35 Jonadab dit au roi: Voici les fils du roi qui arrivent! Ainsi se confirme ce que disait ton serviteur.

36 Comme il achevait de parler, voici, les fils du roi arrivèrent. Ils élevèrent la voix, et pleurèrent; le roi aussi et tous ses serviteurs versèrent d’abondantes larmes.
