Judges 15:2 in Context — Judges 15
1 Quelque temps après, à l’époque de la moisson des blés, Samson alla voir sa femme, et lui porta un chevreau. Il dit: Je veux entrer vers ma femme dans sa chambre. Mais le père de sa femme ne lui permit pas d’entrer.
2 J’ai pensé dit-il, que tu avais pour elle de la haine, et je l’ai donnée à ton compagnon. Est-ce que sa jeune sœur n’est pas plus belle qu’elle? Prends-la donc à sa place.
3 Samson leur dit: Cette fois je ne serai pas coupable envers les Philistins, si je leur fais du mal.
4 Samson s’en alla. Il attrapa trois cents renards, et prit des flambeaux; puis il tourna queue contre queue, et mit un flambeau entre deux queues, au milieu.
