Jeremiah 51:38 in Context — Jeremiah 51

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.

40 Je les ferai descendre comme des agneaux à la tuerie, Comme des béliers et des boucs.
