Hosea 8:3 in Context — Hosea 8
1 Embouche la trompette! L’ennemi fond comme un aigle sur la maison de l’Éternel, Parce qu’ils ont violé mon alliance, Et transgressé ma loi.
2 Ils crieront vers moi: Mon Dieu, nous te connaissons, nous Israël!
3 Israël a rejeté le bien; L’ennemi le poursuivra.
4 Ils ont établi des rois sans mon ordre, Et des chefs à mon insu; Ils ont fait des idoles avec leur argent et leur or; C’est pourquoi ils seront anéantis.
5 L’Éternel a rejeté ton veau, Samarie! Ma colère s’est enflammée contre eux. Jusques à quand refuseront-ils de se purifier?
