Hosea 10:4 in Context — Hosea 10
2 Leur cœur est partagé: ils vont en porter la peine. L’Éternel renversera leurs autels, détruira leurs statues.
3 Et bientôt ils diront: Nous n’avons point de roi, Car nous n’avons pas craint l’Éternel; Et le roi, que pourrait-il faire pour nous?
4 Ils prononcent des paroles vaines, des serments faux, Lorsqu’ils concluent une alliance: Aussi le châtiment germera, comme une plante vénéneuse Dans les sillons des champs.
5 Les habitants de Samarie seront consternés au sujet des veaux de Beth-Aven; Le peuple mènera deuil sur l’idole, Et ses prêtres trembleront pour elle, Pour sa gloire, qui va disparaître du milieu d’eux.
6 Elle sera transportée en Assyrie, Pour servir de présent au roi Jareb. La confusion saisira Éphraïm, Et Israël aura honte de ses desseins.
