2 Et la parole de l’Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:

3 Fils de l’homme, ces gens-là portent leurs idoles dans leur cœur, et ils attachent les regards sur ce qui les a fait tomber dans l’iniquité. Me laisserai-je consulter par eux?

4 C’est pourquoi parle-leur, et dis-leur: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Tout homme de la maison d’Israël qui porte ses idoles dans son cœur, et qui attache les regards sur ce qui l’a fait tomber dans son iniquité, s’il vient s’adresser au prophète, moi, l’Éternel, je lui répondrai, malgré la multitude de ses idoles,

5 afin de saisir dans leur propre cœur ceux de la maison d’Israël qui se sont éloignés de moi avec toutes leurs idoles.

6 C’est pourquoi dis à la maison d’Israël: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Revenez, et détournez-vous de vos idoles, détournez les regards de toutes vos abominations!
