Ezekiel 13:17 in Context — Ezekiel 13
15 J’assouvirai ainsi ma fureur contre la muraille, Et contre ceux qui l’ont couverte de plâtre; Et je vous dirai: Plus de muraille! Et c’en est fait de ceux qui la replâtraient,
16 Des prophètes d’Israël qui prophétisent sur Jérusalem, Et qui ont sur elle des visions de paix, Quand il n’y a point de paix! Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel.
17 Et toi, fils de l’homme, porte tes regards sur les filles de ton peuple Qui prophétisent selon leur propre cœur, Et prophétise contre elles!
18 Tu diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Malheur à celles qui fabriquent des coussinets pour toutes les aisselles, Et qui font des voiles pour la tête des gens de toute taille, Afin de surprendre les âmes! Pensez-vous surprendre les âmes de mon peuple, Et conserver vos propres âmes?
19 Vous me déshonorez auprès de mon peuple Pour des poignées d’orge et des morceaux de pain, En tuant des âmes qui ne doivent pas mourir, Et en faisant vivre des âmes qui ne doivent pas vivre, Trompant ainsi mon peuple, qui écoute le mensonge.
