Jeremiah 50:38 in Context — Jeremiah 50
36 L’épée contre les prophètes de mensonge! Qu’ils soient comme des insensés! L’épée contre ses vaillants hommes! Qu’ils soient consternés!
37 L’épée contre ses chevaux et ses chars! Contre les gens de toute espèce qui sont au milieu d’elle! Qu’ils deviennent semblables à des femmes! L’épée contre ses trésors! Qu’ils soient pillés!
38 La sécheresse contre ses eaux! Qu’elles tarissent! Car c’est un pays d’idoles; Ils sont fous de leurs idoles.
39 C’est pourquoi les animaux du désert s’y établiront avec les chacals, Et les autruches y feront leur demeure; Elle ne sera plus jamais habitée, Elle ne sera plus jamais peuplée.
40 Comme Sodome et Gomorrhe, et les villes voisines, que Dieu détruisit, Dit l’Éternel, Elle ne sera plus habitée, Elle ne sera le séjour d’aucun homme.
