Jeremiah 16:18 in Context — Jeremiah 16

16 Voici, j’envoie une multitude de pêcheurs, dit l’Éternel, et ils les pêcheront; Et après cela j’enverrai une multitude de chasseurs, et ils les chasseront De toutes les montagnes et de toutes les collines, Et des fentes des rochers.

17 Car mes yeux sont attentifs à toutes leurs voies, Elles ne sont point cachées devant ma face, Et leur iniquité ne se dérobe point à mes regards.

18 Je leur donnerai d’abord le double salaire de leur iniquité et de leur péché, Parce qu’ils ont profané mon pays, Parce qu’ils ont rempli mon héritage Des cadavres de leurs idoles et de leurs abominations.

19 Éternel, ma force et mon appui, mon refuge au jour de la détresse! Les nations viendront à toi des extrémités de la terre, Et elles diront: Nos pères n’ont hérité que le mensonge, De vaines idoles, qui ne servent à rien.

20 L’homme peut-il se faire des dieux, Qui ne sont pas des dieux?
