Ezekiel 31:14 in Context — Ezekiel 31
12 Des étrangers, les plus violents des peuples, l’ont abattu et rejeté; Ses branches sont tombées dans les montagnes et dans toutes les vallées. Ses rameaux se sont brisés dans tous les ravins du pays; Et tous les peuples de la terre se sont retirés de son ombre, Et l’ont abandonné.
13 Sur ses débris sont venus se poser tous les oiseaux du ciel, Et toutes les bêtes des champs ont fait leur gîte parmi ses rameaux,
14 Afin que tous les arbres près des eaux n’élèvent plus leur tige, Et qu’ils ne lancent plus leur cime au milieu d’épais rameaux, Afin que tous les chênes arrosés d’eau ne gardent plus leur hauteur; Car tous sont livrés à la mort, aux profondeurs de la terre, Parmi les enfants des hommes, Avec ceux qui descendent dans la fosse.
15 Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Le jour où il est descendu dans le séjour des morts, J’ai répandu le deuil, j’ai couvert l’abîme à cause de lui, Et j’en ai retenu les fleuves; Les grandes eaux ont été arrêtées; J’ai rendu le Liban triste à cause de lui, Et tous les arbres des champs ont été desséchés.
16 Par le bruit de sa chute j’ai fait trembler les nations, Quand je l’ai précipité dans le séjour des morts, Avec ceux qui descendent dans la fosse; Tous les arbres d’Éden ont été consolés dans les profondeurs de la terre, Les plus beaux et les meilleurs du Liban, Tous arrosés par les eaux.
