Exodus 34:12 in Context — Exodus 34
10 L’Éternel répondit: Voici, je traite une alliance. Je ferai, en présence de tout ton peuple, des prodiges qui n’ont eu lieu dans aucun pays et chez aucune nation; tout le peuple qui t’environne verra l’œuvre de l’Éternel, et c’est par toi que j’accomplirai des choses terribles.
11 Prends garde à ce que je t’ordonne aujourd’hui. Voici, je chasserai devant toi les Amoréens, les Cananéens, les Héthiens, les Phéréziens, les Héviens et les Jébusiens.
12 Garde-toi de faire alliance avec les habitants du pays où tu dois entrer, de peur qu’ils ne soient un piège pour toi.
13 Au contraire, vous renverserez leurs autels, vous briserez leurs statues, et vous abattrez leurs idoles.
14 Tu ne te prosterneras point devant un autre dieu; car l’Éternel porte le nom de jaloux, il est un Dieu jaloux.
