Jeremiah 48:5 in Context — Jeremiah 48

3 Des cris partent de Choronaïm; C’est un ravage, c’est une grande détresse.

4 Moab est brisé! Les petits font entendre leurs cris.

5 Car on répand des pleurs à la montée de Luchith, Et des cris de détresse retentissent à la descente de Choronaïm.

6 Fuyez, sauvez votre vie, Et soyez comme un misérable dans le désert!

7 Car, parce que tu t’es confié dans tes œuvres et dans tes trésors, Toi aussi, tu seras pris, Et Kemosch s’en ira en captivité, Avec ses prêtres et avec ses chefs.
