Jeremiah 38:3 in Context — Jeremiah 38
1 Schephathia, fils de Matthan, Guedalia, fils de Paschhur, Jucal, fils de Schélémia, et Paschhur, fils de Malkija, entendirent les paroles que Jérémie adressait à tout le peuple, en disant:
2 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Celui qui restera dans cette ville mourra par l’épée, par la famine ou par la peste; mais celui qui sortira pour se rendre aux Chaldéens, aura la vie sauve, sa vie sera son butin, et il vivra.
3 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Cette ville sera livrée à l’armée du roi de Babylone, qui la prendra.
4 Et les chefs dirent au roi: Que cet homme soit mis à mort! Car il décourage les hommes de guerre qui restent dans cette ville, et tout le peuple, en leur tenant de pareils discours; cet homme ne cherche pas le bien de ce peuple, il ne veut que son malheur.
5 Le roi Sédécias répondit: Voici, il est entre vos mains; car le roi ne peut rien contre vous.
