Jeremiah 9:6 in Context — Jeremiah 9

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.

5 Ils se jouent les uns des autres, Et ne disent point la vérité; Ils exercent leur langue à mentir, Ils s’étudient à faire le mal.

6 Ta demeure est au sein de la fausseté; C’est par fausseté qu’ils refusent de me connaître, Dit l’Éternel.

7 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Voici je les sonderai, je les éprouverai. Car comment agir à l’égard de la fille de mon peuple?

8 Leur langue est un trait meurtrier, Ils ne disent que des mensonges; De la bouche ils parlent de paix à leur prochain, Et au fond du cœur ils lui dressent des pièges.
