Deuteronomy 29:18 in Context — Deuteronomy 29
16 Vous savez de quelle manière nous avons habité dans le pays d’Égypte, et comment nous avons passé au milieu des nations que vous avez traversées.
17 Vous avez vu leurs abominations et leurs idoles, le bois et la pierre, l’argent et l’or, qui sont chez elles.
18 Qu’il n’y ait parmi vous ni homme, ni femme, ni famille, ni tribu, dont le cœur se détourne aujourd’hui de l’Éternel, notre Dieu, pour aller servir les dieux de ces nations-là. Qu’il n’y ait point parmi vous de racine qui produise du poison et de l’absinthe.
19 Que personne, après avoir entendu les paroles de cette alliance contractée avec serment, ne se glorifie dans son cœur et ne dise: J’aurai la paix, quand même je suivrai les penchants de mon cœur, et que j’ajouterai l’ivresse à la soif.
20 L’Éternel ne voudra point lui pardonner. Mais alors la colère et la jalousie de l’Éternel s’enflammeront contre cet homme, toutes les malédictions écrites dans ce livre reposeront sur lui, et l’Éternel effacera son nom de dessous les cieux.
