Judges 16:26 in Context — Judges 16
24 Et quand le peuple le vit, ils célébrèrent leur dieu, en disant: Notre dieu a livré entre nos mains notre ennemi, celui qui ravageait notre pays, et qui multipliait nos morts.
25 Dans la joie de leur cœur, ils dirent: Qu’on appelle Samson, et qu’il nous divertisse! Ils firent sortir Samson de la prison, et il joua devant eux. Ils le placèrent entre les colonnes.
26 Et Samson dit au jeune homme qui le tenait par la main: Laisse-moi, afin que je puisse toucher les colonnes sur lesquelles repose la maison et m’appuyer contre elles.
27 La maison était remplie d’hommes et de femmes; tous les princes des Philistins étaient là, et il y avait sur le toit environ trois mille personnes, hommes et femmes, qui regardaient Samson jouer.
28 Alors Samson invoqua l’Éternel, et dit: Seigneur Éternel! Souviens-toi de moi, je te prie; ô Dieu! Donne-moi de la force seulement cette fois, et que d’un seul coup je tire vengeance des Philistins pour mes deux yeux!
