Jeremiah 14:15 in Context — Jeremiah 14
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.
15 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel Sur les prophètes qui prophétisent en mon nom, Sans que je les aie envoyés, Et qui disent: Il n’y aura dans ce pays ni épée ni famine: Ces prophètes périront par l’épée et par la famine.
16 Et ceux à qui ils prophétisent Seront étendus dans les rues de Jérusalem, Par la famine et par l’épée; Il n’y aura personne pour leur donner la sépulture, Ni à eux, ni à leurs femmes, ni à leurs fils, ni à leurs filles; Je répandrai sur eux leur méchanceté.
17 Dis-leur cette parole: Les larmes coulent de mes yeux nuit et jour, Et elles ne s’arrêtent pas; Car la vierge, fille de mon peuple, a été frappée d’un grand coup, D’une plaie très douloureuse.
