Lamentations 1:14 in Context — Lamentations 1

12 Je m’adresse à vous, à vous tous qui passez ici! Regardez et voyez s’il est une douleur pareille à ma douleur, A celle dont j’ai été frappée! L’Éternel m’a affligée au jour de son ardente colère.

13 D’en haut il a lancé dans mes os un feu qui les dévore; Il a tendu un filet sous mes pieds, Il m’a fait tomber en arrière; Il m’a jetée dans la désolation, dans une langueur de tous les jours.

14 Sa main a lié le joug de mes iniquités; Elles se sont entrelacées, appliquées sur mon cou; Il a brisé ma force; Le Seigneur m’a livrée à des mains auxquelles je ne puis résister.

15 Le Seigneur a terrassé tous mes guerriers au milieu de moi; Il a rassemblé contre moi une armée, Pour détruire mes jeunes hommes; Le Seigneur a foulé au pressoir la vierge, fille de Juda.

16 C’est pour cela que je pleure, que mes yeux fondent en larmes; Car il s’est éloigné de moi, celui qui me consolerait, Qui ranimerait ma vie. Mes fils sont dans la désolation, parce que l’ennemi a triomphé.
