11 Parle maintenant aux hommes de Juda et aux habitants de Jérusalem, et dis: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, je prépare contre vous un malheur, Je médite un projet contre vous. Revenez chacun de votre mauvaise voie, Réformez vos voies et vos œuvres!
12 Mais ils disent: C’est en vain! Car nous suivrons nos pensées, Nous agirons chacun selon les penchants de notre mauvais cœur.
13 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel: Interrogez les nations! Qui a jamais entendu pareilles choses? La vierge d’Israël a commis d’horribles excès.
