Jeremiah 9:2 in Context — Jeremiah 9
1 Oh! si ma tête était remplie d’eau, Si mes yeux étaient une source de larmes, Je pleurerais jour et nuit Les morts de la fille de mon peuple!
2 Oh! Si j’avais au désert une cabane de voyageurs, J’abandonnerais mon peuple, je m’en éloignerais! Car ce sont tous des adultères, C’est une troupe de perfides.
3 Ils ont la langue tendue comme un arc et lancent le mensonge; Ce n’est pas par la vérité qu’ils sont puissants dans le pays; Car ils vont de méchanceté en méchanceté, Et ils ne me connaissent pas, dit l’Éternel.
4 Que chacun se tienne en garde contre son ami, Et qu’on ne se fie à aucun de ses frères; Car tout frère cherche à tromper, Et tout ami répand des calomnies.
