Jeremiah 15:8 in Context — Jeremiah 15
6 Tu m’as abandonné, dit l’Éternel, tu es allée en arrière; Mais j’étends ma main sur toi, et je te détruis, Je suis las d’avoir compassion.
7 Je les vanne avec le vent aux portes du pays; Je prive d’enfants, je fais périr mon peuple, Qui ne s’est pas détourné de ses voies.
8 Ses veuves sont plus nombreuses que les grains de sable de la mer; J’amène sur eux, sur la mère du jeune homme, Le dévastateur en plein midi; Je fais soudain tomber sur elle l’angoisse et la terreur.
9 Celle qui avait enfanté sept fils est désolée, Elle rend l’âme; Son soleil se couche quand il est encore jour; Elle est confuse, couverte de honte. Ceux qui restent, je les livre à l’épée devant leurs ennemis, Dit l’Éternel.
10 Malheur à moi, ma mère, de ce que tu m’as fait naître Homme de dispute et de querelle pour tout le pays! Je n’emprunte ni ne prête, Et cependant tous me maudissent.
