Zephaniah 1:13 in Context — Zephaniah 1
11 Gémissez, habitants de Macthesch! Car tous ceux qui trafiquent sont détruits, Tous les hommes chargés d’argent sont exterminés.
12 En ce temps-là, je fouillerai Jérusalem avec des lampes, Et je châtierai les hommes qui reposent sur leurs lies, Et qui disent dans leur cœur: L’Éternel ne fait ni bien ni mal.
