Jeremiah 51:37 in Context — Jeremiah 51
35 Que la violence envers moi et ma chair déchirée retombent sur Babylone! Dit l’habitante de Sion. Que mon sang retombe sur les habitants de la Chaldée! Dit Jérusalem.
36 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, je défendrai ta cause, Je te vengerai! Je mettrai à sec la mer de Babylone, Et je ferai tarir sa source.
37 Babylone sera un monceau de ruines, un repaire de chacals, Un objet de désolation et de moquerie; Il n’y aura plus d’habitants.
38 Ils rugiront ensemble comme des lions, Ils pousseront des cris comme des lionceaux.
39 Quand ils seront échauffés, je les ferai boire, Et je les enivrerai, pour qu’ils se livrent à la gaîté, Puis s’endorment d’un sommeil éternel, et ne se réveillent plus, Dit l’Éternel.
