Ezekiel 17:18 in Context — Ezekiel 17

16 Je suis vivant! Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel, c’est dans le pays du roi qui l’a fait régner, envers qui il a violé son serment et dont il a rompu l’alliance, c’est près de lui, au milieu de Babylone, qu’il mourra.

17 Pharaon n’ira pas avec une grande armée et un peuple nombreux le secourir pendant la guerre, lorsqu’on élèvera des terrasses et qu’on fera des retranchements pour exterminer une multitude d’âmes.

18 Il a méprisé le serment, il a rompu l’alliance; il avait donné sa main, et il a fait tout cela; il n’échappera pas!

19 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Je suis vivant! C’est le serment fait en mon nom qu’il a méprisé, c’est mon alliance qu’il a rompue. Je ferai retomber cela sur sa tête.

20 J’étendrai mon rets sur lui, et il sera pris dans mon filet; je l’emmènerai à Babylone, et là je plaiderai avec lui sur sa perfidie à mon égard.
