Jeremiah 48:39 in Context — Jeremiah 48
37 Car toutes les têtes sont rasées, Toutes les barbes sont coupées; Sur toutes les mains il y a des incisions, Et sur les reins des sacs.
38 Sur tous les toits de Moab et dans ses places, Ce ne sont que lamentations, Parce que j’ai brisé Moab comme un vase qui n’a pas de prix, Dit l’Éternel.
39 Comme il est brisé! Poussez des gémissements! Comme Moab tourne honteusement le dos! Moab devient un objet de raillerie et d’effroi Pour tous ceux qui l’environnent.
40 Car ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, il vole comme l’aigle, Et il étend ses ailes sur Moab.
41 Kerijoth est prise, Les forteresses sont emportées, Et le cœur des héros de Moab est en ce jour Comme le cœur d’une femme en travail.
