Jeremiah 35:11 in Context — Jeremiah 35

9 nous ne bâtissons point de maisons pour nos demeures, et nous ne possédons ni vignes, ni champs, ni terres ensemencées;

10 nous habitons sous des tentes, et nous suivons et pratiquons tout ce que nous a prescrit Jonadab, notre père.

11 Lorsque Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, est monté contre ce pays, nous avons dit: Allons, retirons-nous à Jérusalem, loin de l’armée des Chaldéens et de l’armée de Syrie. C’est ainsi que nous habitons à Jérusalem.

12 Alors la parole de l’Éternel fut adressée à Jérémie, en ces mots:

13 Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées, le Dieu d’Israël: Va, et dis aux hommes de Juda et aux habitants de Jérusalem: Ne recevrez-vous pas instruction, pour obéir à mes paroles? Dit l’Éternel.
