Leviticus 26:17 in Context — Leviticus 26

15 si vous méprisez mes lois, et si votre âme a en horreur mes ordonnances, en sorte que vous ne pratiquiez point tous mes commandements et que vous rompiez mon alliance,

16 voici alors ce que je vous ferai. J’enverrai sur vous la terreur, la consomption et la fièvre, qui rendront vos yeux languissants et votre âme souffrante; et vous sèmerez en vain vos semences: vos ennemis les dévoreront.

17 Je tournerai ma face contre vous, et vous serez battus devant vos ennemis; ceux qui vous haïssent domineront sur vous, et vous fuirez sans que l’on vous poursuive.

18 Si, malgré cela, vous ne m’écoutez point, je vous châtierai sept fois plus pour vos péchés.

19 Je briserai l’orgueil de votre force, je rendrai votre ciel comme du fer, et votre terre comme de l’airain.
