Jeremiah 28:8 in Context — Jeremiah 28

6 Jérémie, le prophète, dit: Amen! Que l’Éternel fasse ainsi! Que l’Éternel accomplisse les paroles que tu as prophétisées, et qu’il fasse revenir de Babylone en ce lieu les ustensiles de la maison de l’Éternel et tous les captifs!

7 Seulement écoute cette parole que je prononce à tes oreilles et aux oreilles de tout le peuple:

8 Les prophètes qui ont paru avant moi et avant toi, dès les temps anciens, ont prophétisé contre des pays puissants et de grands royaumes la guerre, le malheur et la peste;

9 mais si un prophète prophétise la paix, c’est par l’accomplissement de ce qu’il prophétise qu’il sera reconnu comme véritablement envoyé par l’Éternel.
