19 Tout l’argent et tout l’or, tous les objets d’airain et de fer, seront consacrés à l’Éternel, et entreront dans le trésor de l’Éternel.
20 Le peuple poussa des cris, et les sacrificateurs sonnèrent des trompettes. Lorsque le peuple entendit le son de la trompette, il poussa de grands cris, et la muraille s’écroula; le peuple monta dans la ville, chacun devant soi. Ils s’emparèrent de la ville,
21 et ils dévouèrent par interdit, au fil de l’épée, tout ce qui était dans la ville, hommes et femmes, enfants et vieillards, jusqu’aux bœufs, aux brebis et aux ânes.
