Amos 4:7 in Context — Amos 4
5 Faites vos sacrifices d’actions de grâces avec du levain! Proclamez, publiez vos offrandes volontaires! Car c’est là ce que vous aimez, enfants d’Israël, Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel.
6 Et moi, je vous ai envoyé la famine dans toutes vos villes, Le manque de pain dans toutes vos demeures. Malgré cela, vous n’êtes pas revenus à moi, dit l’Éternel.
7 Et moi, je vous ai refusé la pluie, Lorsqu’il y avait encore trois mois jusqu’à la moisson; J’ai fait pleuvoir sur une ville, Et je n’ai pas fait pleuvoir sur une autre ville; Un champ a reçu la pluie, Et un autre qui ne l’a pas reçue s’est desséché.
8 Deux, trois villes sont allées vers une autre pour boire de l’eau, Et elles n’ont point apaisé leur soif. Malgré cela, vous n’êtes pas revenus à moi, dit l’Éternel.
9 Je vous ai frappés par la rouille et par la nielle; Vos nombreux jardins, vos vignes, vos figuiers et vos oliviers Ont été dévorés par les sauterelles. Malgré cela, vous n’êtes pas revenus à moi, dit l’Éternel.
