Jeremiah 26:21 in Context — Jeremiah 26
19 Ézéchias, roi de Juda, et tout Juda l’ont-ils fait mourir? Ézéchias ne craignit-il pas l’Éternel? N’implora-t-il pas l’Éternel? Alors l’Éternel se repentit du mal qu’il avait prononcé contre eux. Et nous, nous chargerions notre âme d’un si grand crime!
20 Il y eut aussi un homme qui prophétisait au nom de l’Éternel, Urie, fils de Schemaeja, de Kirjath-Jearim. Il prophétisa contre cette ville et contre ce pays entièrement les mêmes choses que Jérémie.
21 Le roi Jojakim, tous ses vaillants hommes, et tous ses chefs, entendirent ses paroles, et le roi chercha à le faire mourir. Urie, qui en fut informé, eut peur, prit la fuite, et alla en Égypte.
22 Le roi Jojakim envoya des gens en Égypte, Elnathan, fils d’Acbor, et des gens avec lui en Égypte.
23 Ils firent sortir d’Égypte Urie et l’amenèrent au roi Jojakim, qui le fit mourir par l’épée et jeta son cadavre sur les sépulcres des enfants du peuple.
