2 Samuel 21:2 in Context — 2 Samuel 21
1 Du temps de David, il y eut une famine qui dura trois ans. David chercha la face de l’Éternel, et l’Éternel dit: C’est à cause de Saül et de sa maison sanguinaire, c’est parce qu’il a fait périr les Gabaonites.
2 Le roi appela les Gabaonites pour leur parler. Les Gabaonites n’étaient point d’entre les enfants d’Israël, mais c’était un reste des Amoréens; les enfants d’Israël s’étaient liés envers eux par un serment, et néanmoins Saül avait voulu les frapper, dans son zèle pour les enfants d’Israël et de Juda.
3 David dit aux Gabaonites: Que puis-je faire pour vous, et avec quoi ferai-je expiation, afin que vous bénissiez l’héritage de l’Éternel?
4 Les Gabaonites lui répondirent: Ce n’est pas pour nous une question d’argent et d’or avec Saül et avec sa maison, et ce n’est pas à nous qu’il appartient de faire mourir personne en Israël. Et le roi dit: Que voulez-vous donc que je fasse pour vous?
