Jeremiah 3:23 in Context — Jeremiah 3

21 Une voix se fait entendre sur les lieux élevés; Ce sont les pleurs, les supplications des enfants d’Israël; Car ils ont perverti leur voie, Ils ont oublié l’Éternel, leur Dieu.

22 Revenez, enfants rebelles, Je pardonnerai vos infidélités. Nous voici, nous allons à toi, Car tu es l’Éternel, notre Dieu.

23 Oui, le bruit qui vient des collines et des montagnes n’est que mensonge; Oui, c’est en l’Éternel, notre Dieu, qu’est le salut d’Israël.

24 Les idoles ont dévoré le produit du travail de nos pères, Dès notre jeunesse, Leurs brebis et leurs bœufs, leurs fils et leurs filles.

25 Nous avons notre honte pour couche, Et notre ignominie pour couverture; Car nous avons péché contre l’Éternel, notre Dieu, Nous et nos pères, dès notre jeunesse jusqu’à ce jour, Et nous n’avons pas écouté la voix de l’Éternel, notre Dieu.
