Micah 2:11 in Context — Micah 2

9 Vous chassez de leurs maisons chéries les femmes de mon peuple, Vous ôtez pour toujours ma parure à leurs enfants.

10 Levez-vous, marchez! Car ce n’est point ici un lieu de repos; A cause de la souillure, il y aura des douleurs, des douleurs violentes.

11 Si un homme court après le vent et débite des mensonges: Je vais te prophétiser sur le vin, sur les boissons fortes! Ce sera pour ce peuple un prophète.

12 Je te rassemblerai tout entier, ô Jacob! Je rassemblerai les restes d’Israël, Je les réunirai comme les brebis d’une bergerie, Comme le troupeau dans son pâturage; Il y aura un grand bruit d’hommes.

13 Celui qui fera la brèche montera devant eux; Ils feront la brèche, franchiront la porte et en sortiront; Leur roi marchera devant eux, Et l’Éternel sera à leur tête.
