Jeremiah 11:22 in Context — Jeremiah 11

20 Mais l’Éternel des armées est un juste juge, Qui sonde les reins et les cœurs. Je verrai ta vengeance s’exercer contre eux, Car c’est à toi que je confie ma cause.

21 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel contre les gens d’Anathoth, Qui en veulent à ta vie, et qui disent: Ne prophétise pas au nom de l’Éternel, Ou tu mourras de notre main!

22 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Voici, je vais les châtier; Les jeunes hommes mourront par l’épée, Leurs fils et leurs filles mourront par la famine.

23 Aucun d’eux n’échappera; Car je ferai venir le malheur sur les gens d’Anathoth, L’année où je les châtierai.
