2 Samuel 17:21 in Context — 2 Samuel 17
19 La femme prit une couverture qu’elle étendit sur l’ouverture du puits, et elle y répandit du grain pilé pour qu’on ne se doutât de rien.
20 Les serviteurs d’Absalom entrèrent dans la maison auprès de cette femme, et dirent: Où sont Achimaats et Jonathan? La femme leur répondit: Ils ont passé le ruisseau. Ils cherchèrent, et ne les trouvant pas, ils retournèrent à Jérusalem.
21 Après leur départ, Achimaats et Jonathan remontèrent du puits et allèrent informer le roi David. Ils dirent à David: Levez-vous et hâtez-vous de passer l’eau, car Achitophel a conseillé contre vous telle chose.
22 David et tout le peuple qui était avec lui se levèrent et ils passèrent le Jourdain; à la lumière du matin, il n’y en avait pas un qui fût resté à l’écart, pas un qui n’eût passé le Jourdain.
23 Achitophel, voyant que son conseil n’était pas suivi, sella son âne et partit pour s’en aller chez lui dans sa ville. Il donna ses ordres à sa maison, et il s’étrangla. C’est ainsi qu’il mourut, et on l’enterra dans le sépulcre de son père.
