Jeremiah 12:6 in Context — Jeremiah 12
4 Jusques à quand le pays sera-t-il dans le deuil, Et l’herbe de tous les champs sera-t-elle desséchée? A cause de la méchanceté des habitants, Les bêtes et les oiseaux périssent. Car ils disent: Il ne verra pas notre fin.
5 Si tu cours avec des piétons et qu’ils te fatiguent, Comment pourras-tu lutter avec des chevaux? Et si tu ne te crois en sûreté que dans une contrée paisible, Que feras-tu sur les rives orgueilleuses du Jourdain?
6 Car tes frères eux-mêmes et la maison de ton père te trahissent, Ils crient eux-mêmes à pleine voix derrière toi. Ne les crois pas, quand ils te diront des paroles amicales.
7 J’ai abandonné ma maison, J’ai délaissé mon héritage, J’ai livré l’objet de mon amour aux mains de ses ennemis.
8 Mon héritage a été pour moi comme un lion dans la forêt, Il a poussé contre moi ses rugissements; C’est pourquoi je l’ai pris en haine.
