Jeremiah 23:36 in Context — Jeremiah 23

34 Et le prophète, le sacrificateur, ou celui du peuple Qui dira: Menace de l’Éternel, Je le châtierai, lui et sa maison.

35 Vous direz, chacun à son prochain, chacun à son frère: Qu’a répondu l’Éternel? Qu’a dit l’Éternel?

36 Mais vous ne direz plus: Menace de l’Éternel! Car la parole de chacun sera pour lui une menace; Vous tordez les paroles du Dieu vivant, De l’Éternel des armées, notre Dieu.

37 Tu diras au prophète: Que t’a répondu l’Éternel? Qu’a dit l’Éternel?

38 Et si vous dites encore: Menace de l’Éternel! Alors ainsi parle l’Éternel: Parce que vous dites ce mot: Menace de l’Éternel! Quoique j’aie envoyé vers vous pour dire: Vous ne direz pas: Menace de l’Éternel!
