Jeremiah 23:21 in Context — Jeremiah 23
19 Voici, la tempête de l’Éternel, la fureur éclate, L’orage se précipite, Il fond sur la tête des méchants.
20 La colère de l’Éternel ne se calmera pas, Jusqu’à ce qu’il ait accompli, exécuté les desseins de son cœur. Vous le comprendrez dans la suite des temps.
21 Je n’ai point envoyé ces prophètes, et ils ont couru; Je ne leur ai point parlé, et ils ont prophétisé.
22 S’ils avaient assisté à mon conseil, Ils auraient dû faire entendre mes paroles à mon peuple, Et les faire revenir de leur mauvaise voie, De la méchanceté de leurs actions.
23 Ne suis-je un Dieu que de près, dit l’Éternel, Et ne suis-je pas aussi un Dieu de loin?
