Ezekiel 23:5 in Context — Ezekiel 23

3 Elles se sont prostituées en Égypte, Elles se sont prostituées dans leur jeunesse; Là leurs mamelles ont été pressées, Là leur sein virginal a été touché.

4 L’aînée s’appelait Ohola, Et sa sœur Oholiba; Elles étaient à moi, Et elles ont enfanté des fils et des filles. Ohola, c’est Samarie; Oholiba, c’est Jérusalem.

5 Ohola me fut infidèle; Elle s’enflamma pour ses amants, Les Assyriens ses voisins,

6 Vêtus d’étoffes teintes en bleu, Gouverneurs et chefs, Tous jeunes et charmants, Cavaliers montés sur des chevaux.

7 Elle s’est prostituée à eux, A toute l’élite des enfants de l’Assyrie; Elle s’est souillée avec tous ceux pour lesquels elle s’était enflammée, Elle s’est souillée avec toutes leurs idoles.
