Jeremiah 3:11 in Context — Jeremiah 3

9 Par sa criante impudicité Israël a souillé le pays, elle a commis un adultère avec la pierre et le bois.

10 Malgré tout cela, la perfide Juda, sa sœur, n’est pas revenue à moi de tout son cœur; c’est avec fausseté qu’elle l’a fait, dit l’Éternel.

11 L’Éternel me dit: L’infidèle Israël paraît innocente En comparaison de la perfide Juda.

12 Va, crie ces paroles vers le septentrion, et dis: Reviens, infidèle Israël! Dit l’Éternel. Je ne jetterai pas sur vous un regard sévère; Car je suis miséricordieux, dit l’Éternel, Je ne garde pas ma colère à toujours.

13 Reconnais seulement ton iniquité, Reconnais que tu as été infidèle à l’Éternel, ton Dieu, Que tu as dirigé çà et là tes pas vers les dieux étrangers, Sous tout arbre vert, Et que tu n’as pas écouté ma voix, dit l’Éternel.
