Ezekiel 22:9 in Context — Ezekiel 22

7 au-dedans de toi, l’on méprise père et mère, on maltraite l’étranger, on opprime l’orphelin et la veuve.

8 Tu dédaignes mes sanctuaires, tu profanes mes sabbats.

9 Il y a chez toi des calomniateurs pour répandre le sang; chez toi, l’on mange sur les montagnes; on commet le crime dans ton sein.

10 Au milieu de toi, on découvre la nudité du père; au milieu de toi, on fait violence à la femme pendant son impureté.

11 Au milieu de toi, chacun se livre à des abominations avec la femme de son prochain, chacun se souille par l’inceste avec sa belle-fille, chacun déshonore sa sœur, fille de son père.
