Zephaniah 1:9 in Context — Zephaniah 1
7 Silence devant le Seigneur, l’Éternel! Car le jour de l’Éternel est proche, Car l’Éternel a préparé le sacrifice, Il a choisi ses conviés.
8 Au jour du sacrifice de l’Éternel, Je châtierai les princes et les fils du roi, Et tous ceux qui portent des vêtements étrangers.
9 En ce jour-là, je châtierai tous ceux qui sautent par-dessus le seuil, Ceux qui remplissent de violence et de fraude la maison de leur maître.
10 En ce jour-là, dit l’Éternel, Il y aura des cris à la porte des poissons, Des lamentations dans l’autre quartier de la ville, Et un grand désastre sur les collines.
11 Gémissez, habitants de Macthesch! Car tous ceux qui trafiquent sont détruits, Tous les hommes chargés d’argent sont exterminés.
