Hosea 11:8 in Context — Hosea 11
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.
9 Je n’agirai pas selon mon ardente colère, Je renonce à détruire Éphraïm; Car je suis Dieu, et non pas un homme, Je suis le Saint au milieu de toi; Je ne viendrai pas avec colère.
10 Ils suivront l’Éternel, qui rugira comme un lion, Car il rugira, et les enfants accourront de la mer.
