Jeremiah 8:12 in Context — Jeremiah 8
10 C’est pourquoi je donnerai leurs femmes à d’autres, Et leurs champs à ceux qui les déposséderont. Car depuis le plus petit jusqu’au plus grand, Tous sont avides de gain; Depuis le prophète jusqu’au sacrificateur, Tous usent de tromperie.
11 Ils pansent à la légère la plaie de la fille de mon peuple: Paix! Paix! Disent-ils. Et il n’y a point de paix.
12 Ils seront confus, car ils commettent des abominations; Ils ne rougissent pas, ils ne connaissent pas la honte; C’est pourquoi ils tomberont avec ceux qui tombent, Ils seront renversés quand je les châtierai, Dit l’Éternel.
13 Je veux en finir avec eux, dit l’Éternel; Il n’y aura plus de raisins à la vigne, Plus de figues au figuier, Et les feuilles se flétriront; Ce que je leur avais donné leur échappera.
14 Pourquoi restons-nous assis? Rassemblez-vous, et allons dans les villes fortes, Pour y périr! Car l’Éternel, notre Dieu, nous destine à la mort, Il nous fait boire des eaux empoisonnées, Parce que nous avons péché contre l’Éternel.
