Jeremiah 23:10 in Context — Jeremiah 23

8 Mais on dira: L’Éternel est vivant, Lui qui a fait monter et qui a ramené La postérité de la maison d’Israël du pays du septentrion Et de tous les pays où je les avais chassés! Et ils habiteront dans leur pays.

9 Sur les prophètes. Mon cœur est brisé au-dedans de moi, Tous mes os tremblent; Je suis comme un homme ivre, Comme un homme pris de vin, A cause de l’Éternel et à cause de ses paroles saintes.

10 Car le pays est rempli d’adultères; Le pays est en deuil à cause de la malédiction; Les plaines du désert sont desséchées. Ils courent au mal, Ils n’ont de la force que pour l’iniquité.

11 Prophètes et sacrificateurs sont corrompus; Même dans ma maison j’ai trouvé leur méchanceté, Dit l’Éternel.

12 C’est pourquoi leur chemin sera glissant et ténébreux, Ils seront poussés et ils tomberont; Car je ferai venir sur eux le malheur, L’année où je les châtierai, dit l’Éternel.
