Jeremiah 49:11 in Context — Jeremiah 49

9 Si des vendangeurs viennent chez toi, Ne laissent-ils rien à grappiller? Si des voleurs viennent de nuit, Ils ne dévastent que ce qu’ils peuvent.

10 Mais moi, je dépouillerai Ésaü, Je découvrirai ses retraites, Il ne pourra se cacher; Ses enfants, ses frères, ses voisins, périront, Et il ne sera plus.

11 Laisse tes orphelins, je les ferai vivre, Et que tes veuves se confient en moi!

12 Car ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, ceux qui ne devaient pas boire la coupe la boiront; Et toi, tu resterais impuni! Tu ne resteras pas impuni, Tu la boiras.

13 Car je le jure par moi-même, dit l’Éternel, Botsra sera un objet de désolation, d’opprobre, De dévastation et de malédiction, Et toutes ses villes deviendront des ruines éternelles.
