Jérémie 4:30 Commentaire : Rashi

ואתי [וְאַ֨תְּ] שָׁד֜וּד מַֽה־תַּעֲשִׂ֗י כִּֽי־תִלְבְּשִׁ֨י שָׁנִ֜י כִּי־תַעְדִּ֣י עֲדִי־זָהָ֗ב כִּֽי־תִקְרְעִ֤י בַפּוּךְ֙ עֵינַ֔יִךְ לַשָּׁ֖וְא תִּתְיַפִּ֑י מָאֲסוּ־בָ֥ךְ עֹגְבִ֖ים נַפְשֵׁ֥ךְ יְבַקֵּֽשׁוּ׃

Et toi, si complètement ruinée, que vas-tu faire? Tu aurais beau te vêtir de pourpre, te parer de tes bijoux d’or, allonger tes yeux au moyen du fard: vainement tu te ferais belle, les amoureux te dédaignent, c’est à ta vie qu’ils en veulent.

Rashi

that you wear crimson to beautify yourself and to gain clemency before the plunderer.

Rashi

that you enlarge...with paint Heb. תקרעי. An expression of tearing, for the paint appears as widening the opening of the eye. So have I heard, and Menahem did not differentiate in the group of קרע.

Rashi

paint Heb. בפוך, an expression of a blue paint.

Rashi

lovers Heb. עגבים, those who jest with the women with various types of adultery. Comp. (Ezekiel 23:20) “She lusted (ותעגבה) for concubinage with them.”

Rashi

they seek your life They seek to kill you.
