Hosea 5:12 in Context — Hosea 5

10 Les chefs de Juda sont comme ceux qui déplacent les bornes; Je répandrai sur eux ma colère comme un torrent.

11 Éphraïm est opprimé, brisé par le jugement, Car il a suivi les préceptes qui lui plaisaient.

12 Je serai comme une teigne pour Éphraïm, Comme une carie pour la maison de Juda.

13 Éphraïm voit son mal, et Juda ses plaies; Éphraïm se rend en Assyrie, et s’adresse au roi Jareb; Mais ce roi ne pourra ni vous guérir, Ni porter remède à vos plaies.

14 Je serai comme un lion pour Éphraïm, Comme un lionceau pour la maison de Juda; Moi, moi, je déchirerai, puis je m’en irai, J’emporterai, et nul n’enlèvera ma proie.
