Exodus 14:4 in Context — Exodus 14

2 Parle aux enfants d’Israël; qu’ils se détournent, et qu’ils campent devant Pi-Hahiroth, entre Migdol et la mer, vis-à-vis de Baal-Tsephon; c’est en face de ce lieu que vous camperez, près de la mer.

3 Pharaon dira des enfants d’Israël: Ils sont égarés dans le pays; le désert les enferme.

4 J’endurcirai le cœur de Pharaon, et il les poursuivra; mais Pharaon et toute son armée serviront à faire éclater ma gloire, et les Égyptiens sauront que je suis l’Éternel. Et les enfants d’Israël firent ainsi.

5 On annonça au roi d’Égypte que le peuple avait pris la fuite. Alors le cœur de Pharaon et celui de ses serviteurs furent changés à l’égard du peuple. Ils dirent: Qu’avons-nous fait, en laissant aller Israël, dont nous n’aurons plus les services?

6 Et Pharaon attela son char, et il prit son peuple avec lui.
