Jeremiah 40:2 in Context — Jeremiah 40
1 La parole qui fut adressée à Jérémie de la part de l’Éternel, après que Nebuzaradan, chef des gardes, l’eut renvoyé de Rama. Quand il le fit chercher, Jérémie était lié de chaînes parmi tous les captifs de Jérusalem et de Juda qu’on emmenait à Babylone.
2 Le chef des gardes envoya chercher Jérémie, et lui dit: L’Éternel, ton Dieu, a annoncé ces malheurs contre ce lieu;
3 l’Éternel a fait venir et a exécuté ce qu’il avait dit, et ces choses vous sont arrivées parce que vous avez péché contre l’Éternel et que vous n’avez pas écouté sa voix.
4 Maintenant voici, je te délivre aujourd’hui des chaînes que tu as aux mains; si tu veux venir avec moi à Babylone, viens, j’aurai soin de toi; si cela te déplaît de venir avec moi à Babylone, ne viens pas; regarde, tout le pays est devant toi, va où il te semblera bon et convenable d’aller.
