Jeremiah 3:12 in Context — Jeremiah 3
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.
14 Revenez, enfants rebelles, dit l’Éternel; Car je suis votre maître. Je vous prendrai, un d’une ville, deux d’une famille, Et je vous ramènerai dans Sion.
