Amos 6:2 in Context — Amos 6
1 Malheur à ceux qui vivent tranquilles dans Sion, Et en sécurité sur la montagne de Samarie, A ces grands de la première des nations, Auprès desquels va la maison d’Israël!…
2 Passez à Calné et voyez, Allez de là jusqu’à Hamath la grande, Et descendez à Gath chez les Philistins: Ces villes sont-elles plus prospères que vos deux royaumes, Et leur territoire est-il plus étendu que le vôtre?…
3 Vous croyez éloigné le jour du malheur, Et vous faites approcher le règne de la violence.
4 Ils reposent sur des lits d’ivoire, Ils sont mollement étendus sur leurs couches; Ils mangent les agneaux du troupeau, Les veaux mis à l’engrais.
