15 Mais après que je les aurai arrachés, J’aurai de nouveau compassion d’eux, Et je les ramènerai chacun dans son héritage, Chacun dans son pays.

16 Et s’ils apprennent les voies de mon peuple, S’ils jurent par mon nom, en disant: L’Éternel est vivant! Comme ils ont enseigné à mon peuple à jurer par Baal, Alors ils jouiront du bonheur au milieu de mon peuple.

17 Mais s’ils n’écoutent rien, Je détruirai une telle nation, Je la détruirai, je la ferai périr, dit l’Éternel.
