Jeremiah 44:28 in Context — Jeremiah 44

26 écoutez la parole de l’Éternel, vous tous de Juda, qui demeurez au pays d’Égypte! Voici, je le jure par mon grand nom, dit l’Éternel, mon nom ne sera plus invoqué par la bouche d’aucun homme de Juda, et dans tout le pays d’Égypte aucun ne dira: Le Seigneur, l’Éternel est vivant!

27 Voici, je veillerai sur eux pour faire du mal et non du bien; et tous les hommes de Juda qui sont dans le pays d’Égypte seront consumés par l’épée et par la famine, jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient anéantis.

28 Ceux, en petit nombre, qui échapperont à l’épée, retourneront du pays d’Égypte au pays de Juda. Mais tout le reste de Juda, tous ceux qui sont venus au pays d’Égypte pour y demeurer, sauront si ce sera ma parole ou la leur qui s’accomplira.

29 Et voici, dit l’Éternel, un signe auquel vous connaîtrez que je vous châtierai dans ce lieu, afin que vous sachiez que mes paroles s’accompliront sur vous pour votre malheur.

30 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, je livrerai Pharaon Hophra, roi d’Égypte, entre les mains de ses ennemis, entre les mains de ceux qui en veulent à sa vie, comme j’ai livré Sédécias, roi de Juda, entre les mains de Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, son ennemi, qui en voulait à sa vie.
