Ezekiel 22:29 in Context — Ezekiel 22
27 Ses chefs sont dans son sein comme des loups qui déchirent leur proie; ils répandent le sang, perdent les âmes, pour assouvir leur cupidité.
28 Et ses prophètes ont pour eux des enduits de plâtre, de vaines visions, des oracles menteurs; ils disent: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel! Et l’Éternel ne leur a point parlé.
29 Le peuple du pays se livre à la violence, commet des rapines, opprime le malheureux et l’indigent, foule l’étranger contre toute justice.
30 Je cherche parmi eux un homme qui élève un mur, qui se tienne à la brèche devant moi en faveur du pays, afin que je ne le détruise pas; mais je n’en trouve point.
31 Je répandrai sur eux ma fureur, je les consumerai par le feu de ma colère, je ferai retomber leurs œuvres sur leur tête, dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel.
