Judges 6:3 in Context — Judges 6

1 Les enfants d’Israël firent ce qui déplaît à l’Éternel; et l’Éternel les livra entre les mains de Madian, pendant sept ans.

2 La main de Madian fut puissante contre Israël. Pour échapper à Madian, les enfants d’Israël se retiraient dans les ravins des montagnes, dans les cavernes et sur les rochers fortifiés.

3 Quand Israël avait semé, Madian montait avec Amalek et les fils de l’Orient, et ils marchaient contre lui.

4 Ils campaient en face de lui, détruisaient les productions du pays jusque vers Gaza, et ne laissaient en Israël ni vivres, ni brebis, ni bœufs, ni ânes.

5 Car ils montaient avec leurs troupeaux et leurs tentes, ils arrivaient comme une multitude de sauterelles, ils étaient innombrables, eux et leurs chameaux, et ils venaient dans le pays pour le ravager.
