Jeremiah 7:9 in Context — Jeremiah 7

7 Alors je vous laisserai demeurer dans ce lieu, Dans le pays que j’ai donné à vos pères, D’éternité en éternité.

8 Mais voici, vous vous livrez à des espérances trompeuses, Qui ne servent à rien.

9 Quoi! Dérober, tuer, commettre des adultères, Jurer faussement, offrir de l’encens à Baal, Aller après d’autres dieux que vous ne connaissez pas!…

10 Puis vous venez vous présenter devant moi, Dans cette maison sur laquelle mon nom est invoqué, Et vous dites: Nous sommes délivrés!… Et c’est afin de commettre toutes ces abominations!

11 Est-elle à vos yeux une caverne de voleurs, Cette maison sur laquelle mon nom est invoqué? Je le vois moi-même, dit l’Éternel.
