Amos 3:11 in Context — Amos 3

9 Faites retentir votre voix dans les palais d’Asdod Et dans les palais du pays d’Égypte, Et dites: Rassemblez-vous sur les montagnes de Samarie, Et voyez quelle immense confusion au milieu d’elle, Quelles violences dans son sein!

10 Ils ne savent pas agir avec droiture, dit l’Éternel, Ils entassent dans leurs palais les produits de la violence et de la rapine.

11 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: L’ennemi investira le pays, Il détruira ta force, Et tes palais seront pillés.

12 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Comme le berger arrache de la gueule du lion Deux jambes ou un bout d’oreille, Ainsi se sauveront les enfants d’Israël qui sont assis dans Samarie A l’angle d’un lit et sur des tapis de damas.

13 Écoutez, et déclarez ceci à la maison de Jacob! Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel, le Dieu des armées.
