Isaiah 15:6 in Context — Isaiah 15

4 Hesbon et Élealé poussent des cris, On entend leur voix jusqu’à Jahats; Même les guerriers de Moab se lamentent, Ils ont l’effroi dans l’âme.

5 Mon cœur gémit sur Moab, Dont les fugitifs se sauvent jusqu’à Tsoar, Jusqu’à Églath-Schelischija; Car ils font, en pleurant, la montée de Luchith, Et ils jettent des cris de détresse sur le chemin de Choronaïm;

6 Car les eaux de Nimrim sont ravagées, L’herbe est desséchée, le gazon est détruit, La verdure a disparu.

7 C’est pourquoi ils ramassent ce qui leur reste, Et ils transportent leurs biens au-delà du torrent des saules.

8 Car les cris environnent les frontières de Moab; Ses lamentations retentissent jusqu’à Églaïm, Ses lamentations retentissent jusqu’à Beer-Élim.
