Judges 11:34 in Context — Judges 11

32 Jephthé marcha contre les fils d’Ammon, et l’Éternel les livra entre ses mains.

33 Il leur fit éprouver une très grande défaite, depuis Aroër jusque vers Minnith, espace qui renfermait vingt villes, et jusqu’à Abel-Keramim. Et les fils d’Ammon furent humiliés devant les enfants d’Israël.

34 Jephthé retourna dans sa maison à Mitspa. Et voici, sa fille sortit au-devant de lui avec des tambourins et des danses. C’était son unique enfant; il n’avait point de fils et point d’autre fille.

35 Dès qu’il la vit, il déchira ses vêtements, et dit: Ah! Ma fille! Tu me jettes dans l’abattement, tu es au nombre de ceux qui me troublent! J’ai fait un vœu à l’Éternel, et je ne puis le révoquer.

36 Elle lui dit: Mon père, si tu as fait un vœu à l’Éternel, traite-moi selon ce qui est sorti de ta bouche, maintenant que l’Éternel t’a vengé de tes ennemis, des fils d’Ammon.
