Judges 8:3 in Context — Judges 8

1 Les hommes d’Éphraïm dirent à Gédéon: Que signifie cette manière d’agir envers nous? Pourquoi ne pas nous avoir appelés, quand tu es allé combattre Madian? Et ils eurent avec lui une violente querelle.

2 Gédéon leur répondit: Qu’ai-je fait en comparaison de vous? Le grappillage d’Éphraïm ne vaut-il pas mieux que la vendange d’Abiézer?

3 C’est entre vos mains que Dieu a livré les chefs de Madian, Oreb et Zeeb. Qu’ai-je donc pu faire en comparaison de vous? Lorsqu’il eut ainsi parlé, leur colère contre lui s’apaisa.

4 Gédéon arriva au Jourdain, et il le passa, lui et les trois cents hommes qui étaient avec lui, fatigués, mais poursuivant toujours.

5 Il dit aux gens de Succoth: Donnez, je vous prie, quelques pains au peuple qui m’accompagne, car ils sont fatigués, et je suis à la poursuite de Zébach et de Tsalmunna, rois de Madian.
