Joshua 24:8 in Context — Joshua 24

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.

7 Vos pères crièrent à l’Éternel. Et l’Éternel mit des ténèbres entre vous et les Égyptiens, il ramena sur eux la mer, et elle les couvrit. Vos yeux ont vu ce que j’ai fait aux Égyptiens. Et vous restâtes longtemps dans le désert.

8 Je vous conduisis dans le pays des Amoréens, qui habitaient de l’autre côté du Jourdain, et ils combattirent contre vous. Je les livrai entre vos mains; vous prîtes possession de leur pays, et je les détruisis devant vous.

9 Balak, fils de Tsippor, roi de Moab, se leva et combattit Israël. Il fit appeler Balaam, fils de Beor, pour qu’il vous maudît.

10 Mais je ne voulus point écouter Balaam; il vous bénit, et je vous délivrai de la main de Balak.
