Jeremiah 21:4 in Context — Jeremiah 21
2 Consulte pour nous l’Éternel; car Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, nous fait la guerre; peut-être l’Éternel fera-t-il en notre faveur quelqu’un de ses miracles, afin qu’il s’éloigne de nous.
3 Jérémie leur répondit: Vous direz à Sédécias:
4 Ainsi parle l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël: Voici, je vais détourner les armes de guerre qui sont dans vos mains, et avec lesquelles vous combattez en dehors des murailles le roi de Babylone et les Chaldéens qui vous assiègent, et je les rassemblerai au milieu de cette ville.
5 Puis je combattrai contre vous, la main étendue et le bras fort, avec colère, avec fureur, avec une grande irritation.
6 Je frapperai les habitants de cette ville, les hommes et les bêtes; ils mourront d’une peste affreuse.
