Jeremiah 30:12
French (La Bible expliquée)
Voici ce que déclare le Seigneur: « Ton mal est grave, ta blessure inguérissable. La lèpre morale rongeant le peuple de Dieu a nécessité une intervention draconienne. Mais le jugement infligé par le Seigneur ne signifie pas la fin du peuple, qui sera rétabli. Bien plus, ceux qui ont servi d'instruments pour le jugement subiront, à leur tour, un sort identique à celui qu'ils ont fait subir au peuple de Dieu.
