Micah 2:7 in Context — Micah 2
5 C’est pourquoi tu n’auras personne Qui étende le cordeau sur un lot, Dans l’assemblée de l’Éternel.
6 Ne prophétisez pas! disent-ils. Qu’on ne prophétise pas de telles choses! Les invectives n’ont point de fin!
7 Oses-tu parler ainsi, maison de Jacob? L’Éternel est-il prompt à s’irriter? Est-ce là sa manière d’agir? Mes paroles ne sont-elles pas favorables A celui qui marche avec droiture?
8 Depuis longtemps on traite mon peuple en ennemi; Vous enlevez le manteau de dessus les vêtements De ceux qui passent avec sécurité En revenant de la guerre.
9 Vous chassez de leurs maisons chéries les femmes de mon peuple, Vous ôtez pour toujours ma parure à leurs enfants.
