Jeremiah 7:22 in Context — Jeremiah 7

20 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Voici, ma colère et ma fureur se répandent sur ce lieu, Sur les hommes et sur les bêtes, Sur les arbres des champs et sur les fruits de la terre; Elle brûlera, et ne s’éteindra point.

21 Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées, le Dieu d’Israël: Ajoutez vos holocaustes à vos sacrifices, Et mangez-en la chair!

22 Car je n’ai point parlé avec vos pères et je ne leur ai donné aucun ordre, Le jour où je les ai fait sortir du pays d’Égypte, Au sujet des holocaustes et des sacrifices.

23 Mais voici l’ordre que je leur ai donné: Écoutez ma voix, Et je serai votre Dieu, Et vous serez mon peuple; Marchez dans toutes les voies que je vous prescris, Afin que vous soyez heureux.

24 Et ils n’ont point écouté, ils n’ont point prêté l’oreille; Ils ont suivi les conseils, les penchants de leur mauvais cœur, Ils ont été en arrière et non en avant.
