Hosea 11:6 in Context — Hosea 11
4 Je les tirai avec des liens d’humanité, avec des cordages d’amour, Je fus pour eux comme celui qui aurait relâché le joug près de leur bouche, Et je leur présentai de la nourriture.
5 Ils ne retourneront pas au pays d’Égypte; Mais l’Assyrien sera leur roi, Parce qu’ils ont refusé de revenir à moi.
6 L’épée fondra sur leurs villes, Anéantira, dévorera leurs soutiens, A cause des desseins qu’ils ont eus.
7 Mon peuple est enclin à s’éloigner de moi; On les rappelle vers le Très-Haut, Mais aucun d’eux ne l’exalte.
8 Que ferai-je de toi, Éphraïm? Dois-je te livrer, Israël? Te traiterai-je comme Adma? Te rendrai-je semblable à Tseboïm? Mon cœur s’agite au-dedans de moi, Toutes mes compassions sont émues.
