Ezekiel 11:3 in Context — Ezekiel 11
1 L’esprit m’enleva, et me transporta à la porte orientale de la maison de l’Éternel, à celle qui regarde l’orient. Et voici, à l’entrée de la porte, il y avait vingt-cinq hommes; et je vis au milieu d’eux Jaazania, fils d’Azzur, et Pelathia, fils de Benaja, chefs du peuple.
2 Et l’Éternel me dit: Fils de l’homme, ce sont les hommes qui méditent l’iniquité, et qui donnent de mauvais conseils dans cette ville.
3 Ils disent: Ce n’est pas le moment! Bâtissons des maisons! La ville est la chaudière, et nous sommes la viande.
4 C’est pourquoi prophétise contre eux, prophétise, fils de l’homme!
5 Alors l’esprit de l’Éternel tomba sur moi. Et il me dit: Dis: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Vous parlez de la sorte, maison d’Israël! Et ce qui vous monte à la pensée, je le sais.
