Ezekiel 23:40 in Context — Ezekiel 23
38 Voici encore ce qu’elles m’ont fait: Elles ont souillé mon sanctuaire dans le même jour, Et elles ont profané mes sabbats.
39 Elles ont immolé leurs enfants à leurs idoles, Et elles sont allées le même jour dans mon sanctuaire, Pour le profaner. C’est là ce qu’elles ont fait dans ma maison.
40 Et même elles ont fait chercher des hommes venant de loin, Elles leur ont envoyé des messagers, et voici, ils sont venus. Pour eux tu t’es lavée, tu as mis du fard à tes yeux, Tu t’es parée de tes ornements;
41 Tu t’es assise sur un lit magnifique, Devant lequel une table était dressée, Et tu as placé sur cette table mon encens et mon huile.
42 On entendait les cris d’une multitude joyeuse; Et parmi cette foule d’hommes On a fait venir du désert des Sabéens, Qui ont mis des bracelets aux mains des deux sœurs Et de superbes couronnes sur leurs têtes.
