Exodus 3:18 in Context — Exodus 3
16 Va, rassemble les anciens d’Israël, et dis-leur: L’Éternel, le Dieu de vos pères, m’est apparu, le Dieu d’Abraham, d’Isaac et de Jacob. Il a dit: Je vous ai vus, et j’ai vu ce qu’on vous fait en Égypte,
17 et j’ai dit: Je vous ferai monter de l’Égypte, où vous souffrez, dans le pays des Cananéens, des Héthiens, des Amoréens, des Phéréziens, des Héviens et des Jébusiens, dans un pays où coulent le lait et le miel.
18 Ils écouteront ta voix; et tu iras, toi et les anciens d’Israël, auprès du roi d’Égypte, et vous lui direz: L’Éternel, le Dieu des Hébreux, nous est apparu. Permets-nous de faire trois journées de marche dans le désert, pour offrir des sacrifices à l’Éternel, notre Dieu.
19 Je sais que le roi d’Égypte ne vous laissera point aller, si ce n’est par une main puissante.
20 J’étendrai ma main, et je frapperai l’Égypte par toutes sortes de prodiges que je ferai au milieu d’elle. Après quoi, il vous laissera aller.
