Joshua 7:2 in Context — Joshua 7
1 Les enfants d’Israël commirent une infidélité au sujet des choses dévouées par interdit. Acan, fils de Carmi, fils de Zabdi, fils de Zérach, de la tribu de Juda, prit des choses dévouées. Et la colère de l’Éternel s’enflamma contre les enfants d’Israël.
2 Josué envoya de Jéricho des hommes vers Aï, qui est près de Beth-Aven, à l’orient de Béthel. Il leur dit: Montez, et explorez le pays. Et ces hommes montèrent, et explorèrent Aï.
3 Ils revinrent auprès de Josué, et lui dirent: Il est inutile de faire marcher tout le peuple; deux ou trois mille hommes suffiront pour battre Aï; ne donne pas cette fatigue à tout le peuple, car ils sont en petit nombre.
4 Trois mille hommes environ se mirent en marche, mais ils prirent la fuite devant les gens d’Aï.
