Lamentations 3:12 in Context — Lamentations 3
10 Il a été pour moi un ours en embuscade, Un lion dans un lieu caché.
11 Il a détourné mes voies, il m’a déchiré, Il m’a jeté dans la désolation.
12 Il a tendu son arc, et il m’a placé Comme un but pour sa flèche.
13 Il a fait entrer dans mes reins Les traits de son carquois.
14 Je suis pour tout mon peuple un objet de raillerie, Chaque jour l’objet de leurs chansons.
