Micah 2:9 in Context — Micah 2

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.

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.
