Lamentations 4:11 in Context — Lamentations 4

9 Ceux qui périssent par l’épée sont plus heureux Que ceux qui périssent par la faim, Qui tombent exténués, Privés du fruit des champs.

10 Les femmes, malgré leur tendresse, Font cuire leurs enfants; Ils leur servent de nourriture, Au milieu du désastre de la fille de mon peuple.

11 L’Éternel a épuisé sa fureur, Il a répandu son ardente colère; Il a allumé dans Sion un feu Qui en dévore les fondements.

12 Les rois de la terre n’auraient pas cru, Aucun des habitants du monde n’aurait cru Que l’adversaire, que l’ennemi entrerait Dans les portes de Jérusalem.

13 Voilà le fruit des péchés de ses prophètes, Des iniquités de ses sacrificateurs, Qui ont répandu dans son sein Le sang des justes!
