Deuteronomy 21:4 in Context — Deuteronomy 21
2 tes anciens et tes juges iront mesurer les distances à partir du cadavre jusqu’aux villes des environs.
3 Quand on aura déterminé la ville la plus rapprochée du cadavre, les anciens de cette ville prendront une génisse qui n’ait point servi au travail et qui n’ait point tiré au joug.
4 Ils feront descendre cette génisse vers un torrent qui jamais ne tarisse et où il n’y ait ni culture ni semence; et là, ils briseront la nuque à la génisse, dans le torrent.
5 Alors s’approcheront les sacrificateurs, fils de Lévi; car l’Éternel, ton Dieu, les a choisis pour qu’ils le servent et qu’ils bénissent au nom de l’Éternel, et ce sont eux qui doivent prononcer sur toute contestation et sur toute blessure.
6 Tous les anciens de cette ville la plus rapprochée du cadavre laveront leurs mains sur la génisse à laquelle on a brisé la nuque dans le torrent.
