La Bible David Martin (1744)
Car, ô Juda! tu as eu autant de dieux que de villes; et toi, Jérusalem, tu as dressé autant d'autels aux choses honteuses, que tu as de rues, des autels, [dis-je], pour faire des parfums à Bahal.
La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Car, ô Juda! tu as autant de dieux que de villes, et, autant il y a de rues à Jérusalem, autant vous avez dressé d'autels à l'infamie, des autels pour offrir des parfums à Baal.
Darby's French Translation
Car le nombre de tes dieux est celui de tes villes, ô Juda! et selon le nombre des rues de Jérusalem vous avez dressé des autels à cette honteuse idole, des autels pour brûler de l'encens à Baal.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah,.... :-,

and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem; of which there were many, and some of note i:

have ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal; one of whose names is Bosheth, "shame"; see Hosea 9:10, hence Jerubbaal is called, in 2 Samuel 11:21, Jerubbesheth; very properly is this name given to Baal, not only because the worship of him was to the reproach of the true God, but brought shame and confusion in the issue to its worshipper; as well as because shameful things were done in the worship of it, especially of Baalpeor; who seems to be the same with the Priapus of other nations.

i Vid. Lightfoot, Chorograph. Cent. ad Matt. p. 34.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

That shameful thing - i. e., Baal; public establishment of idolatry, such as actually took place in the reign of Manasseh (2 Chronicles 33:3. Contrast 2 Kings 18:4).
