Jeremiah 4:10 in Context — Jeremiah 4
8 C’est pourquoi couvrez-vous de sacs, pleurez et gémissez; Car la colère ardente de l’Éternel ne se détourne pas de nous.
9 En ce jour-là, dit l’Éternel, Le roi et les chefs perdront courage, Les sacrificateurs seront étonnés, Et les prophètes stupéfaits.
10 Je dis: Ah! Seigneur Éternel! Tu as donc trompé ce peuple et Jérusalem, en disant: Vous aurez la paix! Et cependant l’épée menace leur vie.
11 En ce temps-là, il sera dit à ce peuple et à Jérusalem: Un vent brûlant souffle des lieux élevés du désert Sur le chemin de la fille de mon peuple, Non pour vanner ni pour nettoyer le grain.
12 C’est un vent impétueux qui vient de là jusqu’à moi. Maintenant, je prononcerai leur sentence.
