Jeremiah 13:18 in Context — Jeremiah 13

16 Rendez gloire à l’Éternel, votre Dieu, Avant qu’il fasse venir les ténèbres, Avant que vos pieds heurtent contre les montagnes de la nuit; Vous attendrez la lumière, Et il la changera en ombre de la mort, Il la réduira en obscurité profonde.

17 Si vous n’écoutez pas, Je pleurerai en secret, à cause de votre orgueil; Mes yeux fondront en larmes, Parce que le troupeau de l’Éternel sera emmené captif.

18 Dis au roi et à la reine: Asseyez-vous à terre! Car il est tombé de vos têtes, Le diadème qui vous servait d’ornement.

19 Les villes du midi sont fermées, Il n’y a personne pour ouvrir; Tout Juda est emmené captif, Il est emmené tout entier captif.

20 Lève tes yeux et regarde Ceux qui viennent du septentrion. Où est le troupeau qui t’avait été donné, Le troupeau qui faisait ta gloire?
