Habacuc 2:8
8
Parce que tu as butiné plusieurs nations, tout le reste des peuples te butinera, et à cause aussi des meurtres des hommes, et de la violence [faite] au pays, à la ville, et à tous ses habitants.
The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms # 76
76. Internal Meaning of Jeremiah, Chapter 10
1-2 Let not those be feared who wish to prevail by their own intelligence and by means of artifices. (3)
3-5 It is described how they make evil to appear like good, and make themselves appear powerful, (3)
6-7 whereas the Lord alone has power. (16)
8-9 To do this they abuse the Word; (3)
10 but the Lord alone reigns, (16)
11 and those who do not acknowledge Him vanish. (4)
12-13 All truth is from the Lord. (16)
14-15 Self-intelligence amounts to nothing at all; it will perish. (2, 3)
11 It is otherwise with a church that trusts in the Lord.
17-18 The preparation of these during the destruction of the former. (11, 3)
19-21 Grief because of the backsliding of the church from the Lord, and its vastation. (3, 11)
23-25 Prayer to the Lord that they may not perish together with the evil. (11)
