2 Samuel 6:16 in Context — 2 Samuel 6
14 David dansait de toute sa force devant l’Éternel, et il était ceint d’un éphod de lin.
15 David et toute la maison d’Israël firent monter l’arche de l’Éternel avec des cris de joie et au son des trompettes.
16 Comme l’arche de l’Éternel entrait dans la cité de David, Mical, fille de Saül, regardait par la fenêtre, et, voyant le roi David sauter et danser devant l’Éternel, elle le méprisa dans son cœur.
17 Après qu’on eut amené l’arche de l’Éternel, on la mit à sa place au milieu de la tente que David avait dressée pour elle; et David offrit devant l’Éternel des holocaustes et des sacrifices d’actions de grâces.
18 Quand David eut achevé d’offrir les holocaustes et les sacrifices d’actions de grâces, il bénit le peuple au nom de l’Éternel des armées.
