Ezekiel 7:26 in Context — Ezekiel 7

24 Je ferai venir les plus méchants des peuples, Pour qu’ils s’emparent de leurs maisons; Je mettrai fin à l’orgueil des puissants, Et leurs sanctuaires seront profanés.

25 La ruine vient! Ils cherchent le salut, et point de salut!

26 Il arrive malheur sur malheur, Un bruit succède à un bruit; Ils demandent des visions aux prophètes; Les sacrificateurs ne connaissent plus la loi, Les anciens n’ont plus de conseils.

27 Le roi se désole, le prince s’épouvante, Les mains du peuple du pays sont tremblantes. Je les traiterai selon leurs voies, Je les jugerai comme ils le méritent, Et ils sauront que je suis l’Éternel.
