Ezekiel 21:15 in Context — Ezekiel 21
13 La parole de l’Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
14 Fils de l’homme, prophétise, et dis: Ainsi parle l’Éternel. Dis: L’épée! L’épée! Elle est aiguisée, elle est polie.
15 C’est pour massacrer qu’elle est aiguisée, C’est pour étinceler qu’elle est polie… Nous réjouirons-nous? Le sceptre de mon fils méprise tout bois…
16 On l’a donnée à polir, Pour que la main la saisisse; Elle est aiguisée, l’épée, elle est polie, Pour armer la main de celui qui massacre.
17 Crie et gémis, fils de l’homme! Car elle est tirée contre mon peuple, Contre tous les princes d’Israël; Ils sont livrés à l’épée avec mon peuple. Frappe donc sur ta cuisse!
