Jérémie 14:1 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 14:1

The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the
dearth.
] Or, "concerning the words of straints" F24; that is, concerning the businesses of a drought, as the Targum; concerning the Lord's restraining rain from the earth, and forbidding the heavens dropping it down; the consequence of which is a drought, or dryness of the earth; and the effect of that a famine; when this was it is not anywhere said; it could not be the famine at the siege of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar, because that only affected the city; this all Judea. Some think it was in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, long before the siege; and others, that it was in the reign of Jehoiakim, since we read of a fast in his time, ( Jeremiah 36:9 ) , which might be on this occasion; and it appears that there was one at this time, though not acceptable to God; see ( Jeremiah 14:12 ) .

Jérémie 14:1 In-Context

1 La parole qui fut adressée à Jérémie par l'Eternel, à l'occasion de la sécheresse.
2 Juda est dans le deuil, Ses villes sont désolées, tristes, abattues, Et les cris de Jérusalem s'élèvent.
3 Les grands envoient les petits chercher de l'eau, Et les petits vont aux citernes, ne trouvent point d'eau, Et retournent avec leurs vases vides; Confus et honteux, ils se couvrent la tête.
4 La terre est saisie d'épouvante, Parce qu'il ne tombe point de pluie dans le pays, Et les laboureurs confus se couvrent la tête.
5 Même la biche dans la campagne Met bas et abandonne sa portée, Parce qu'il n'y a point de verdure.
