Lamentations 2:7 in Context — Lamentations 2
5 Le Seigneur a été comme un ennemi; Il a dévoré Israël, il a dévoré tous ses palais, Il a détruit ses forteresses; Il a rempli la fille de Juda de plaintes et de gémissements.
6 Il a dévasté sa tente comme un jardin, Il a détruit le lieu de son assemblée; L’Éternel a fait oublier en Sion les fêtes et le sabbat, Et, dans sa violente colère, il a rejeté le roi et le sacrificateur.
7 Le Seigneur a dédaigné son autel, repoussé son sanctuaire; Il a livré entre les mains de l’ennemi les murs des palais de Sion; Les cris ont retenti dans la maison de l’Éternel, Comme en un jour de fête.
8 L’Éternel avait résolu de détruire les murs de la fille de Sion; Il a tendu le cordeau, il n’a pas retiré sa main sans les avoir anéantis; Il a plongé dans le deuil rempart et murailles, Qui n’offrent plus ensemble qu’une triste ruine.
9 Ses portes sont enfoncées dans la terre; Il en a détruit, rompu les barres. Son roi et ses chefs sont parmi les nations; il n’y a plus de loi. Même les prophètes ne reçoivent aucune vision de l’Éternel.
