Ezekiel 24:5 in Context — Ezekiel 24

3 Propose une parabole à la famille de rebelles, et dis-leur: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Place, place la chaudière, et verses-y de l’eau.

4 Mets-y les morceaux, tous les bons morceaux, la cuisse, l’épaule; remplis-la des meilleurs os.

5 Choisis dans le troupeau, et entasse du bois sous la chaudière; fais bouillir à gros bouillons, et que les os qui sont dedans cuisent aussi.

6 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Malheur à la ville sanguinaire, chaudière pleine de rouille, et dont la rouille ne se détache pas! Tires-en les morceaux les uns après les autres, sans recourir au sort.

7 Car le sang qu’elle a versé est au milieu d’elle; elle l’a mis sur le roc nu, elle ne l’a pas répandu sur la terre pour le couvrir de poussière.
