Jeremiah 15:19 in Context — Jeremiah 15

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?

19 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel: Si tu te rattaches à moi, je te répondrai, et tu te tiendras devant moi; Si tu sépares ce qui est précieux de ce qui est vil, tu seras comme ma bouche. C’est à eux de revenir à toi, Mais ce n’est pas à toi de retourner vers eux.

20 Je te rendrai pour ce peuple comme une forte muraille d’airain; Ils te feront la guerre, mais ils ne te vaincront pas; Car je serai avec toi pour te sauver et te délivrer, Dit l’Éternel.

21 Je te délivrerai de la main des méchants, Je te sauverai de la main des violents.
