1 Lorsque tu iras à la guerre contre tes ennemis, et que tu verras des chevaux et des chars, et un peuple plus nombreux que toi, tu ne les craindras point; car l’Éternel, ton Dieu, qui t’a fait monter du pays d’Égypte, est avec toi.

2 A l’approche du combat, le sacrificateur s’avancera et parlera au peuple.

3 Il leur dira: Écoute, Israël! Vous allez aujourd’hui livrer bataille à vos ennemis. Que votre cœur ne se trouble point; soyez sans crainte, ne vous effrayez pas, ne vous épouvantez pas devant eux.

4 Car l’Éternel, votre Dieu, marche avec vous, pour combattre vos ennemis, pour vous sauver.
