Jeremiah 6:28 in Context — Jeremiah 6

26 Fille de mon peuple, couvre-toi d’un sac et roule-toi dans la cendre, Prends le deuil comme pour un fils unique, Verse des larmes, des larmes amères! Car le dévastateur vient sur nous à l’improviste.

27 Je t’avais établi en observation parmi mon peuple, Comme une forteresse, Pour que tu connusses et sondasses leur voie.

28 Ils sont tous des rebelles, des calomniateurs, De l’airain et du fer; Ils sont tous corrompus.

29 Le soufflet est brûlant, Le plomb est consumé par le feu; C’est en vain qu’on épure, Les scories ne se détachent pas.

30 On les appelle de l’argent méprisable, Car l’Éternel les a rejetés.
