Ezekiel 8:17 in Context — Ezekiel 8

15 Et il me dit: Vois-tu, fils de l’homme? Tu verras encore d’autres abominations plus grandes que celles-là.

16 Et il me conduisit dans le parvis intérieur de la maison de l’Éternel. Et voici, à l’entrée du temple de l’Éternel, entre le portique et l’autel, il y avait environ vingt-cinq hommes, tournant le dos au temple de l’Éternel et le visage vers l’orient; et ils se prosternaient à l’orient devant le soleil.

17 Et il me dit: Vois-tu, fils de l’homme? Est-ce trop peu pour la maison de Juda de commettre les abominations qu’ils commettent ici? Faut-il encore qu’ils remplissent le pays de violence, et qu’ils ne cessent de m’irriter? Voici, ils approchent le rameau de leur nez.

18 Moi aussi, j’agirai avec fureur; mon œil sera sans pitié, et je n’aurai point de miséricorde; quand ils crieront à haute voix à mes oreilles, je ne les écouterai pas.
