Jeremiah 31:22 in Context — Jeremiah 31
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!
22 Jusques à quand seras-tu errante, Fille égarée? Car l’Éternel crée une chose nouvelle sur la terre: La femme recherchera l’homme.
23 Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées, le Dieu d’Israël: Voici encore ce que l’on dira dans le pays de Juda et dans ses villes, Quand j’aurai ramené leurs captifs: Que l’Éternel te bénisse, demeure de la justice, Montagne sainte!
24 Là s’établiront Juda et toutes ses villes, Les laboureurs et ceux qui conduisent les troupeaux.
