Jeremiah 24:8 in Context — Jeremiah 24
6 Je les regarderai d’un œil favorable, et je les ramènerai dans ce pays; je les établirai et ne les détruirai plus, je les planterai et ne les arracherai plus.
7 Je leur donnerai un cœur pour qu’ils connaissent que je suis l’Éternel; ils seront mon peuple, et je serai leur Dieu, s’ils reviennent à moi de tout leur cœur.
8 Et comme les mauvaises figues qui ne peuvent être mangées à cause de leur mauvaise qualité, dit l’Éternel, ainsi ferai-je devenir Sédécias, roi de Juda, ses chefs, et le reste de Jérusalem, ceux qui sont restés dans ce pays et ceux qui habitent dans le pays d’Égypte.
9 Je les rendrai un objet d’effroi, de malheur, pour tous les royaumes de la terre, un sujet d’opprobre, de sarcasme, de raillerie, et de malédiction, dans tous les lieux où je les chasserai.
10 J’enverrai parmi eux l’épée, la famine et la peste, jusqu’à ce qu’ils aient disparu du pays que j’avais donné à eux et à leurs pères.
