Nehemiah 13:7 in Context — Nehemiah 13
5 avait disposé pour lui une grande chambre où l’on mettait auparavant les offrandes, l’encens, les ustensiles, la dîme du blé, du moût et de l’huile, ce qui était ordonné pour les Lévites, les chantres et les portiers, et ce qui était prélevé pour les sacrificateurs.
6 Je n’étais point à Jérusalem quand tout cela eut lieu, car j’étais retourné auprès du roi la trente-deuxième année d’Artaxerxès, roi de Babylone.
7 A la fin de l’année, j’obtins du roi la permission de revenir à Jérusalem, et je m’aperçus du mal qu’avait fait Éliaschib, en disposant une chambre pour Tobija dans les parvis de la maison de Dieu.
8 J’en éprouvai un vif déplaisir, et je jetai hors de la chambre tous les objets qui appartenaient à Tobija;
9 j’ordonnai qu’on purifiât les chambres, et j’y replaçai les ustensiles de la maison de Dieu, les offrandes et l’encens.
