Obadiah 1:14 in Context — Obadiah 1
12 Ne repais pas ta vue du jour de ton frère, du jour de son malheur, Ne te réjouis pas sur les enfants de Juda au jour de leur ruine, Et n’ouvre pas une grande bouche au jour de la détresse!
13 N’entre pas dans les portes de mon peuple au jour de sa ruine, Ne repais pas ta vue de son malheur au jour de sa ruine, Et ne porte pas la main sur ses richesses au jour de sa ruine!
14 Ne te tiens pas au carrefour pour exterminer ses fuyards, Et ne livre pas ses réchappés au jour de la détresse!
15 Car le jour de l’Éternel est proche, pour toutes les nations; Il te sera fait comme tu as fait, Tes œuvres retomberont sur ta tête.
16 Car, comme vous avez bu sur ma montagne sainte, Ainsi toutes les nations boiront sans cesse; Elles boiront, elles avaleront, Et elles seront comme si elles n’avaient jamais été.
