Jeremiah 7:31 in Context — Jeremiah 7
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.
31 Ils ont bâti des hauts lieux à Topheth dans la vallée de Ben-Hinnom, Pour brûler au feu leurs fils et leurs filles: Ce que je n’avais point ordonné, Ce qui ne m’était point venu à la pensée.
32 C’est pourquoi voici, les jours viennent, dit l’Éternel, Où l’on ne dira plus Topheth et la vallée de Ben-Hinnom, Mais où l’on dira la vallée du carnage; Et l’on enterrera les morts à Topheth par défaut de place.
33 Les cadavres de ce peuple seront la pâture Des oiseaux du ciel et des bêtes de la terre; Et il n’y aura personne pour les troubler.
