Jeremiah 15:16 in Context — Jeremiah 15
14 Je te fais passer avec ton ennemi dans un pays que tu ne connais pas, Car le feu de ma colère s’est allumé, Il brûle sur vous.
15 Tu sais tout, ô Éternel, souviens-toi de moi, ne m’oublie pas, Venge-moi de mes persécuteurs! Ne m’enlève pas, tandis que tu te montres lent à la colère! Sache que je supporte l’opprobre à cause de toi.
16 J’ai recueilli tes paroles, et je les ai dévorées; Tes paroles ont fait la joie et l’allégresse de mon cœur; Car ton nom est invoqué sur moi, Éternel, Dieu des armées!
17 Je ne me suis point assis dans l’assemblée des moqueurs, afin de m’y réjouir; Mais à cause de ta puissance, je me suis assis solitaire, Car tu me remplissais de fureur.
18 Pourquoi ma souffrance est-elle continuelle? Pourquoi ma plaie est-elle douloureuse, et ne veut-elle pas se guérir? Serais-tu pour moi comme une source trompeuse, Comme une eau dont on n’est pas sûr?
