Zephaniah 1:15 in Context — Zephaniah 1

13 Leurs biens seront au pillage, Et leurs maisons seront dévastées; Ils auront bâti des maisons, qu’ils n’habiteront plus, Ils auront planté des vignes, dont ils ne boiront plus le vin.

14 Le grand jour de l’Éternel est proche, Il est proche, il arrive en toute hâte; Le jour de l’Éternel fait entendre sa voix, Et le héros pousse des cris amers.

15 Ce jour est un jour de fureur, Un jour de détresse et d’angoisse, Un jour de ravage et de destruction, Un jour de ténèbres et d’obscurité, Un jour de nuées et de brouillards,

16 Un jour où retentiront la trompette et les cris de guerre Contre les villes fortes et les tours élevées.

17 Je mettrai les hommes dans la détresse, Et ils marcheront comme des aveugles, Parce qu’ils ont péché contre l’Éternel; Je répandrai leur sang comme de la poussière, Et leur chair comme de l’ordure.
