Ezekiel 24:8 in Context — Ezekiel 24

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.

8 Afin de montrer ma fureur, afin de me venger, j’ai répandu son sang sur le roc nu, pour qu’il ne fût pas couvert.

9 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Malheur à la ville sanguinaire! Moi aussi je veux faire un grand bûcher.

10 Entasse le bois, allume le feu, cuis bien la chair, assaisonne-la, et que les os soient brûlés.
