Jeremiah 51:7 in Context — Jeremiah 51
5 Car Israël et Juda ne sont point abandonnés de leur Dieu, De l’Éternel des armées, Et le pays des Chaldéens est rempli de crimes Contre le Saint d’Israël.
6 Fuyez de Babylone, et que chacun sauve sa vie, De peur que vous ne périssiez dans sa ruine! Car c’est un temps de vengeance pour l’Éternel; Il va lui rendre selon ses œuvres.
7 Babylone était dans la main de l’Éternel une coupe d’or, Qui enivrait toute la terre; Les nations ont bu de son vin: C’est pourquoi les nations ont été comme en délire.
8 Soudain Babylone tombe, elle est brisée! Gémissez sur elle, prenez du baume pour sa plaie: Peut-être guérira-t-elle.
9 Nous avons voulu guérir Babylone, mais elle n’a pas guéri. Abandonnons-la, et allons chacun dans son pays; Car son châtiment atteint jusqu’aux cieux, Et s’élève jusqu’aux nues.
