Jeremiah 34:8 in Context — Jeremiah 34

6 Jérémie, le prophète, dit toutes ces paroles à Sédécias, roi de Juda, à Jérusalem.

7 Et l’armée du roi de Babylone combattait contre Jérusalem et contre toutes les autres villes de Juda, contre Lakis et Azéka, car c’étaient des villes fortes qui restaient parmi les villes de Juda.

8 La parole fut adressée à Jérémie de la part de l’Éternel, après que le roi Sédécias eut fait un pacte avec tout le peuple de Jérusalem, pour publier la liberté,

9 afin que chacun renvoyât libres son esclave et sa servante, l’Hébreu et la femme de l’Hébreu, et que personne ne tînt plus dans la servitude le Juif, son frère.

10 Tous les chefs et tout le peuple, qui étaient entrés dans le pacte, s’engagèrent à renvoyer libres chacun son esclave et sa servante, afin de ne plus les tenir dans la servitude; ils obéirent, et les renvoyèrent.
