Ezekiel 21:28 in Context — Ezekiel 21
26 Car le roi de Babylone se tient au carrefour, à l’entrée des deux chemins, pour tirer des présages; il secoue les flèches, il interroge les théraphim, il examine le foie.
27 Le sort, qui est dans sa droite, désigne Jérusalem, où l’on devra dresser des béliers, commander le carnage, et pousser des cris de guerre; on dressera des béliers contre les portes, on élèvera des terrasses, on formera des retranchements.
28 Ils ne voient là que de vaines divinations, eux qui ont fait des serments. Mais lui, il se souvient de leur iniquité, en sorte qu’ils seront pris.
29 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Parce que vous rappelez le souvenir de votre iniquité, en mettant à nu vos transgressions, en manifestant vos péchés dans toutes vos actions; parce que vous en rappelez le souvenir, vous serez saisis par sa main.
30 Et toi, profane, méchant, prince d’Israël, dont le jour arrive au temps où l’iniquité est à son terme!
