Amos 7:1 in Context — Amos 7

1 Le Seigneur, l’Éternel, m’envoya cette vision. Voici, il formait des sauterelles, Au moment où le regain commençait à croître; C’était le regain après la coupe du roi.

2 Et comme elles dévoraient entièrement l’herbe de la terre, Je dis: Seigneur Éternel, pardonne donc! Comment Jacob subsistera-t-il? Car il est si faible!

3 L’Éternel se repentit de cela. Cela n’arrivera pas, dit l’Éternel.
