Jeremiah 49:23 in Context — Jeremiah 49
21 Au bruit de leur chute, la terre tremble; Leur cri se fait entendre jusqu’à la mer Rouge…
22 Voici, comme l’aigle il s’avance, il vole, Il étend ses ailes sur Botsra, Et le cœur des héros d’Édom est en ce jour Comme le cœur d’une femme en travail.
23 Sur Damas. Hamath et Arpad sont confuses, Car elles ont appris une mauvaise nouvelle, elles tremblent; C’est une mer en tourmente, Qui ne peut se calmer.
24 Damas est défaillante, elle se tourne pour fuir, Et l’effroi s’empare d’elle; L’angoisse et les douleurs la saisissent, Comme une femme en travail.
25 Ah! Elle n’est pas abandonnée, la ville glorieuse, La ville qui fait ma joie!
