Joshua 24:4 in Context — Joshua 24
2 Josué dit à tout le peuple: Ainsi parle l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël: Vos pères, Térach, père d’Abraham et père de Nachor, habitaient anciennement de l’autre côté du fleuve, et ils servaient d’autres dieux.
3 Je pris votre père Abraham de l’autre côté du fleuve, et je lui fis parcourir tout le pays de Canaan; je multipliai sa postérité, et je lui donnai Isaac.
4 Je donnai à Isaac Jacob et Ésaü, et je donnai en propriété à Ésaü la montagne de Séir, mais Jacob et ses fils descendirent en Égypte.
5 J’envoyai Moïse et Aaron, et je frappai l’Égypte par les prodiges que j’opérai au milieu d’elle; puis je vous en fis sortir.
6 Je fis sortir vos pères de l’Égypte, et vous arrivâtes à la mer. Les Égyptiens poursuivirent vos pères jusqu’à la mer Rouge, avec des chars et des cavaliers.
