Amos 6:7 in Context — Amos 6

5 Ils extravaguent au son du luth, Ils se croient habiles comme David sur les instruments de musique.

6 Ils boivent le vin dans de larges coupes, Ils s’oignent avec la meilleure huile, Et ils ne s’attristent pas sur la ruine de Joseph!

7 C’est pourquoi ils seront emmenés à la tête des captifs; Et les cris de joie de ces voluptueux cesseront.

8 Le Seigneur, l’Éternel, l’a juré par lui-même; L’Éternel, le Dieu des armées, a dit: J’ai en horreur l’orgueil de Jacob, Et je hais ses palais; Je livrerai la ville et tout ce qu’elle renferme.

9 Et s’il reste dix hommes dans une maison, ils mourront.
