Habakkuk 2:15 in Context — Habakkuk 2
13 Voici, quand l’Éternel des armées l’a résolu, Les peuples travaillent pour le feu, Les nations se fatiguent en vain.
14 Car la terre sera remplie de la connaissance de la gloire de l’Éternel, Comme le fond de la mer par les eaux qui le couvrent.
15 Malheur à celui qui fait boire son prochain, A toi qui verses ton outre et qui l’enivres, Afin de voir sa nudité!
16 Tu seras rassasié de honte plus que de gloire; Bois aussi toi-même, et découvre-toi! La coupe de la droite de l’Éternel se tournera vers toi, Et l’ignominie souillera ta gloire.
17 Car les violences contre le Liban retomberont sur toi, Et les ravages des bêtes t’effraieront, Parce que tu as répandu le sang des hommes, Et commis des violences dans le pays, Contre la ville et tous ses habitants.
