Jeremiah 46:15 in Context — Jeremiah 46

13 La parole qui fut adressée par l’Éternel à Jérémie, le prophète, sur l’arrivée de Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, qui voulait frapper le pays d’Égypte.

14 Annoncez-le en Égypte, Publiez-le à Migdol, Publiez-le à Noph et à Tachpanès! Dites: Lève-toi, prépare-toi, Car l’épée dévore autour de toi!

15 Pourquoi tes vaillants hommes sont-ils emportés? Ils ne tiennent pas ferme, car l’Éternel les renverse.

16 Il en fait chanceler un grand nombre; Ils tombent l’un sur l’autre, et ils disent: Allons, retournons vers notre peuple, Dans notre pays natal, Loin du glaive destructeur!

17 Là, on s’écrie: Pharaon, roi d’Égypte, Ce n’est qu’un bruit; il a laissé passer le moment.
