Jeremiah 25:29 in Context — Jeremiah 25
27 Tu leur diras: Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées, le Dieu d’Israël: Buvez, enivrez-vous, et vomissez, Et tombez sans vous relever, A la vue du glaive que j’enverrai au milieu de vous!
28 Et s’ils refusent de prendre de ta main la coupe pour boire, Dis-leur: Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Vous boirez!
29 Car voici, dans la ville sur laquelle mon nom est invoqué Je commence à faire du mal; Et vous, vous resteriez impunis! Vous ne resterez pas impunis; Car j’appellerai le glaive sur tous les habitants de la terre, Dit l’Éternel des armées.
30 Et toi, tu leur prophétiseras toutes ces choses, Et tu leur diras: L’Éternel rugira d’en haut; De sa demeure sainte il fera retentir sa voix; Il rugira contre le lieu de sa résidence; Il poussera des cris, comme ceux qui foulent au pressoir, Contre tous les habitants de la terre.
31 Le bruit parvient jusqu’à l’extrémité de la terre; Car l’Éternel est en dispute avec les nations, Il entre en jugement contre toute chair; Il livre les méchants au glaive, dit l’Éternel.
