Jeremiah 7:28 in Context — Jeremiah 7

26 Mais ils ne m’ont point écouté, ils n’ont point prêté l’oreille; Ils ont raidi leur cou, Ils ont fait le mal plus que leurs pères.

27 Si tu leur dis toutes ces choses, ils ne t’écouteront pas; Si tu cries vers eux, ils ne te répondront pas.

28 Alors dis-leur: C’est ici la nation qui n’écoute pas la voix de l’Éternel, son Dieu, Et qui ne veut pas recevoir instruction; La vérité a disparu, elle s’est retirée de leur bouche.

29 Coupe ta chevelure, et jette-la au loin; Monte sur les hauteurs, et prononce une complainte! Car l’Éternel rejette Et repousse la génération qui a provoqué sa fureur.

30 Car les enfants de Juda ont fait ce qui est mal à mes yeux, Dit l’Éternel; Ils ont placé leurs abominations Dans la maison sur laquelle mon nom est invoqué, Afin de la souiller.
