Jeremiah 51:9 in Context — Jeremiah 51

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.

10 L’Éternel manifeste la justice de notre cause; Venez, et racontons dans Sion L’œuvre de l’Éternel, notre Dieu.

11 Aiguisez les flèches, saisissez les boucliers! L’Éternel a excité l’esprit des rois de Médie, Parce qu’il veut détruire Babylone; Car c’est la vengeance de l’Éternel, La vengeance de son temple.
