Ezekiel 5:12 in Context — Ezekiel 5

10 C’est pourquoi des pères mangeront leurs enfants au milieu de toi, et des enfants mangeront leurs pères; j’exercerai mes jugements contre toi, et je disperserai à tous les vents tout ce qui restera de toi.

11 C’est pourquoi, je suis vivant! Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel, parce que tu as souillé mon sanctuaire par toutes tes idoles et toutes tes abominations, moi aussi je retirerai mon œil, et mon œil sera sans pitié, moi aussi je n’aurai point de miséricorde.

12 Un tiers de tes habitants mourra de la peste et sera consumé par la famine au milieu de toi; un tiers tombera par l’épée autour de toi; et j’en disperserai un tiers à tous les vents, et je tirerai l’épée derrière eux.

13 J’assouvirai ainsi ma colère, je ferai reposer ma fureur sur eux, je me donnerai satisfaction; et ils sauront que moi, l’Éternel, j’ai parlé dans ma colère, en répandant sur eux ma fureur.

14 Je ferai de toi un désert, un sujet d’opprobre parmi les nations qui t’entourent, aux yeux de tous les passants.
