Jeremiah 11:5 in Context — Jeremiah 11
3 Dis-leur: Ainsi parle l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël: Maudit soit l’homme qui n’écoute point les paroles de cette alliance,
4 Que j’ai prescrite à vos pères, Le jour où je les ai fait sortir du pays d’Égypte, De la fournaise de fer, en disant: Écoutez ma voix, et faites tout ce que je vous ordonnerai; Alors vous serez mon peuple, Je serai votre Dieu,
5 Et j’accomplirai le serment que j’ai fait à vos pères, De leur donner un pays où coulent le lait et le miel, Comme vous le voyez aujourd’hui. Et je répondis: Amen, Éternel!
6 L’Éternel me dit: Publie toutes ces paroles dans les villes de Juda Et dans les rues de Jérusalem, en disant: Écoutez les paroles de cette alliance, Et mettez-les en pratique!
7 Car j’ai averti vos pères, Depuis le jour où je les ai fait monter du pays d’Égypte Jusqu’à ce jour, Je les ai avertis tous les matins, en disant: Écoutez ma voix!
