Et tu leur diras : parce que vos pères m'ont abandonné, dit l'Eternel, et sont allés après d'autres dieux, et les ont servis, et se sont prosternés devant eux, et m'ont abandonné, et n'ont point gardé ma Loi,
Tu leur diras: C'est parce que vos pères m'ont abandonné, dit l'Éternel, et sont allés après d'autres dieux et les ont servis, et se sont prosternés devant eux; parce qu'ils m'ont abandonné et n'ont pas gardé ma loi;
Alors tu leur répondras: Vos pères m'ont abandonné, dit l'Eternel, Ils sont allés après d'autres dieux, Ils les ont servis et se sont prosternés devant eux; Ils m'ont abandonné, et n'ont point observé ma loi.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then shalt thou say unto them,.... In answer to their questions; not in a general way, but by observing to them particular sins, and those gross ones, they had been guilty of:
because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the Lord; that is, his worship, as the Targum; they had quitted his service, and left attending on his word and ordinances; and therefore it was but just with him to forsake them, and give them up into the hands of their enemies:
and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them; were guilty of gross idolatry, serving and worshipping the creature more than and besides the Creator; even idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and wood, and stone, which were no gods; for there is no other true God besides the Lord; and which they were well informed of, and therefore their sin was the greater to leave him and worship them; and which sin, because of the heinousness of it, is repeated:
and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law; they forsook his worship, as the Targum, and did not observe the law of the decalogue or ten commandments; especially the two first of them, which required the worship of the one true God, and forbid the worshipping of others; and which threatened the visiting such iniquities of fathers upon the children, to the third and fourth generation, of such that hated the Lord; and such were these persons, as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
