Jeremiah 15:3 in Context — Jeremiah 15
1 L’Éternel me dit: Quand Moïse et Samuel se présenteraient devant moi, Je ne serais pas favorable à ce peuple. Chasse-le loin de ma face, qu’il s’en aille!
2 Et s’ils te disent: Où irons-nous? Tu leur répondras: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: A la mort ceux qui sont pour la mort, A l’épée ceux qui sont pour l’épée, A la famine ceux qui sont pour la famine, A la captivité ceux qui sont pour la captivité!
3 J’enverrai contre eux quatre espèces de fléaux, dit l’Éternel, L’épée pour les tuer, Les chiens pour les traîner, Les oiseaux du ciel et les bêtes de la terre Pour les dévorer et les détruire.
4 Je les rendrai un objet d’effroi pour tous les royaumes de la terre, A cause de Manassé, fils d’Ézéchias, roi de Juda, Et de tout ce qu’il a fait dans Jérusalem.
5 Qui aura pitié de toi, Jérusalem, Qui te plaindra? Qui ira s’informer de ton état?
