Haggai 2:12 in Context — Haggai 2
10 Le vingt-quatrième jour du neuvième mois, la seconde année de Darius, la parole de l’Éternel se révéla par Aggée, le prophète, en ces mots:
11 Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Propose aux sacrificateurs cette question sur la loi:
12 Si quelqu’un porte dans le pan de son vêtement de la chair consacrée, et qu’il touche avec son vêtement du pain, des mets, du vin, de l’huile, ou un aliment quelconque, ces choses seront-elles sanctifiées? Les sacrificateurs répondirent: Non!
13 Et Aggée dit: Si quelqu’un souillé par le contact d’un cadavre touche toutes ces choses, seront-elles souillées? Les sacrificateurs répondirent: Elles seront souillées.
14 Alors Aggée, reprenant la parole, dit: Tel est ce peuple, telle est cette nation devant moi, dit l’Éternel, Telles sont toutes les œuvres de leurs mains; Ce qu’ils m’offrent là est souillé.
