Habakkuk 1:15 in Context — Habakkuk 1
13 Tes yeux sont trop purs pour voir le mal, Et tu ne peux pas regarder l’iniquité. Pourquoi regarderais-tu les perfides, et te tairais-tu, Quand le méchant dévore celui qui est plus juste que lui?
14 Traiterais-tu l’homme comme les poissons de la mer, Comme le reptile qui n’a point de maître?
15 Il les fait tous monter avec l’hameçon, Il les attire dans son filet, Il les assemble dans ses rets: Aussi est-il dans la joie et dans l’allégresse.
16 C’est pourquoi il sacrifie à son filet, Il offre de l’encens à ses rets; Car par eux sa portion est grasse, Et sa nourriture succulente.
17 Videra-t-il pour cela son filet, Et toujours égorgera-t-il sans pitié les nations?
