Ezekiel 7:20 in Context — Ezekiel 7
18 Ils se ceignent de sacs, Et la terreur les enveloppe; Tous les visages sont confus, Toutes les têtes sont rasées.
19 Ils jetteront leur argent dans les rues, Et leur or sera pour eux un objet d’horreur; Leur argent et leur or ne pourront les sauver, Au jour de la fureur de l’Éternel; Ils ne pourront ni rassasier leur âme, Ni remplir leurs entrailles; Car c’est ce qui les a fait tomber dans leur iniquité.
20 Ils étaient fiers de leur magnifique parure, Et ils en ont fabriqué les images de leurs abominations, de leurs idoles. C’est pourquoi je la rendrai pour eux un objet d’horreur;
21 Je la donnerai en pillage aux mains des étrangers, Et comme butin aux impies de la terre, Afin qu’ils la profanent.
22 Je détournerai d’eux ma face, Et l’on souillera mon sanctuaire; Des furieux y pénétreront, et le profaneront.
