Hosea 7:6 in Context — Hosea 7

4 Ils sont tous adultères, Semblables à un four chauffé par le boulanger: Il cesse d’attiser le feu Depuis qu’il a pétri la pâte jusqu’à ce qu’elle soit levée.

5 Au jour de notre roi, Les chefs se rendent malades par les excès du vin; Le roi tend la main aux moqueurs.

6 Ils appliquent aux embûches leur cœur pareil à un four; Toute la nuit dort leur boulanger, Et au matin le four brûle comme un feu embrasé.

7 Ils sont tous ardents comme un four, Et ils dévorent leurs juges; Tous leurs rois tombent: Aucun d’eux ne m’invoque.

8 Éphraïm se mêle avec les peuples, Éphraïm est un gâteau qui n’a pas été retourné.
