Jeremiah 12:11 in Context — Jeremiah 12

9 Mon héritage a été pour moi un oiseau de proie, une hyène; Aussi les oiseaux de proie viendront de tous côtés contre lui. Allez, rassemblez tous les animaux des champs, Faites-les venir pour qu’ils le dévorent!

10 Des bergers nombreux ravagent ma vigne, Ils foulent mon champ; Ils réduisent le champ de mes délices En un désert, en une solitude.

11 Ils le réduisent en un désert; Il est en deuil, il est désolé devant moi. Tout le pays est ravagé, Car nul n’y prend garde.

12 Sur tous les lieux élevés du désert arrivent les dévastateurs, Car le glaive de l’Éternel dévore le pays d’un bout à l’autre; Il n’y a de paix pour aucun homme.

13 Ils ont semé du froment, et ils moissonnent des épines, Ils se sont fatigués sans profit. Ayez honte de ce que vous récoltez, Par suite de la colère ardente de l’Éternel.
