Jeremiah 31:19 in Context — Jeremiah 31

17 Il y a de l’espérance pour ton avenir, dit l’Éternel; Tes enfants reviendront dans leur territoire.

18 J’entends Éphraïm qui se lamente: Tu m’as châtié, et j’ai été châtié Comme un veau qui n’est pas dompté; Fais-moi revenir, et je reviendrai, Car tu es l’Éternel, mon Dieu.

19 Après m’être détourné, j’éprouve du repentir; Et après avoir reconnu mes fautes, je frappe sur ma cuisse; Je suis honteux et confus, Car je porte l’opprobre de ma jeunesse.

20 Éphraïm est-il donc pour moi un fils chéri, Un enfant qui fait mes délices? Car plus je parle de lui, plus encore son souvenir est en moi; Aussi mes entrailles sont émues en sa faveur: J’aurai pitié de lui, dit l’Éternel.

21 Dresse des signes, place des poteaux, Prends garde à la route, au chemin que tu as suivi… Reviens, vierge d’Israël, Reviens dans ces villes qui sont à toi!
