2 Samuel 18:31 in Context — 2 Samuel 18
29 Le roi dit: Le jeune Absalom est-il en bonne santé? Achimaats répondit: J’ai aperçu un grand tumulte au moment où Joab envoya le serviteur du roi et moi ton serviteur; mais je ne sais ce que c’était.
30 Et le roi dit: Mets-toi là de côté. Et Achimaats se tint de côté.
31 Aussitôt arriva Cuschi. Et il dit: Que le roi mon seigneur apprenne la bonne nouvelle! Aujourd’hui l’Éternel t’a rendu justice en te délivrant de la main de tous ceux qui s’élevaient contre toi.
32 Le roi dit à Cuschi: Le jeune homme Absalom est-il en bonne santé? Cuschi répondit: Qu’ils soient comme ce jeune homme, les ennemis du roi mon seigneur et tous ceux qui s’élèvent contre toi pour te faire du mal!
33 Alors le roi, saisi d’émotion, monta dans la chambre au-dessus de la porte et pleura. Il disait en marchant: Mon fils Absalom! Mon fils, mon fils Absalom! Que ne suis-je mort à ta place! Absalom, mon fils, mon fils!
