Jeremiah 17:4 in Context — Jeremiah 17
2 Comme ils pensent à leurs enfants, ainsi pensent-ils à leurs autels Et à leurs idoles d’Astarté près des arbres verts, Sur les collines élevées.
3 Je livre au pillage ma montagne et ses champs, tes biens, tous tes trésors, Et tes hauts lieux, à cause de tes péchés, sur tout ton territoire.
4 Tu perdras par ta faute l’héritage que je t’avais donné; Je t’asservirai à ton ennemi dans un pays que tu ne connais pas; Car vous avez allumé le feu de ma colère, Et il brûlera toujours.
5 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Maudit soit l’homme qui se confie dans l’homme, Qui prend la chair pour son appui, Et qui détourne son cœur de l’Éternel!
6 Il est comme un misérable dans le désert, Et il ne voit point arriver le bonheur; Il habite les lieux brûlés du désert, Une terre salée et sans habitants.
