Ezra 7:26 in Context — Ezra 7
24 Nous vous faisons savoir qu’il ne peut être levé ni tribut, ni impôt, ni droit de passage, sur aucun des sacrificateurs, des Lévites, des chantres, des portiers, des Néthiniens, et des serviteurs de cette maison de Dieu.
25 Et toi, Esdras, selon la sagesse de Dieu que tu possèdes, établis des juges et des magistrats qui rendent la justice à tout le peuple de l’autre côté du fleuve, à tous ceux qui connaissent les lois de ton Dieu; et fais-les connaître à ceux qui ne les connaissent pas.
26 Quiconque n’observera pas ponctuellement la loi de ton Dieu et la loi du roi sera condamné à la mort, au bannissement, à une amende, ou à la prison.
27 Béni soit l’Éternel, le Dieu de nos pères, qui a disposé le cœur du roi à glorifier ainsi la maison de l’Éternel à Jérusalem,
28 et qui m’a rendu l’objet de la bienveillance du roi, de ses conseillers, et de tous ses puissants chefs! Fortifié par la main de l’Éternel, mon Dieu, qui était sur moi, j’ai rassemblé les chefs d’Israël, afin qu’ils partissent avec moi.
