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.
4 Le Seigneur, l’Éternel, m’envoya cette vision. Voici, le Seigneur, l’Éternel, proclamait le châtiment par le feu; Et le feu dévorait le grand abîme Et dévorait le champ.
5 Je dis: Seigneur Éternel, arrête donc! Comment Jacob subsistera-t-il? Car il est si faible!
