Jeremiah 14:12 in Context — Jeremiah 14
10 Voici ce que l’Éternel dit de ce peuple: Ils aiment à courir çà et là, Ils ne savent retenir leurs pieds; L’Éternel n’a point d’attachement pour eux, Il se souvient maintenant de leurs crimes, Et il châtie leurs péchés.
11 Et l’Éternel me dit: N’intercède pas en faveur de ce peuple.
12 S’ils jeûnent, je n’écouterai pas leurs supplications; S’ils offrent des holocaustes et des offrandes, je ne les agréerai pas; Car je veux les détruire par l’épée, par la famine et par la peste.
13 Je répondis: Ah! Seigneur Éternel! Voici, les prophètes leur disent: Vous ne verrez point d’épée, Vous n’aurez point de famine; Mais je vous donnerai dans ce lieu une paix assurée.
14 Et l’Éternel me dit: C’est le mensonge que prophétisent en mon nom les prophètes; Je ne les ai point envoyés, je ne leur ai point donné d’ordre, Je ne leur ai point parlé; Ce sont des visions mensongères, de vaines prédictions, Des tromperies de leur cœur, qu’ils vous prophétisent.
