2 Samuel 23:15 in Context — 2 Samuel 23
13 Trois des trente chefs descendirent au temps de la moisson et vinrent auprès de David, dans la caverne d’Adullam, lorsqu’une troupe de Philistins était campée dans la vallée des Rephaïm.
14 David était alors dans la forteresse, et il y avait un poste de Philistins à Bethléhem.
15 David eut un désir, et il dit: Qui me fera boire de l’eau de la citerne qui est à la porte de Bethléhem?
16 Alors les trois vaillants hommes passèrent au travers du camp des Philistins, et puisèrent de l’eau de la citerne qui est à la porte de Bethléhem. Ils l’apportèrent et la présentèrent à David; mais il ne voulut pas la boire, et il la répandit devant l’Éternel.
17 Il dit: Loin de moi, ô Éternel, la pensée de faire cela! Boirais-je le sang de ces hommes qui sont allés au péril de leur vie? Et il ne voulut pas la boire. Voilà ce que firent ces trois vaillants hommes.
