Ezekiel 20:6 in Context — Ezekiel 20

4 Veux-tu les juger, veux-tu les juger, fils de l’homme? Fais-leur connaître les abominations de leurs pères!

5 Tu leur diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Le jour où j’ai choisi Israël, j’ai levé ma main vers la postérité de la maison de Jacob, et je me suis fait connaître à eux dans le pays d’Égypte; j’ai levé ma main vers eux, en disant: Je suis l’Éternel, votre Dieu.

6 En ce jour-là, j’ai levé ma main vers eux, pour les faire passer du pays d’Égypte dans un pays que j’avais cherché pour eux, pays où coulent le lait et le miel, le plus beau de tous les pays.

7 Je leur dis: Rejetez chacun les abominations qui attirent vos regards, et ne vous souillez pas par les idoles de l’Égypte! Je suis l’Éternel, votre Dieu.

8 Et ils se révoltèrent contre moi, et ils ne voulurent pas m’écouter. Aucun ne rejeta les abominations qui attiraient ses regards, et ils n’abandonnèrent point les idoles de l’Égypte. J’eus la pensée de répandre ma fureur sur eux, d’épuiser contre eux ma colère, au milieu du pays d’Égypte.
