Isaiah 16:12 in Context — Isaiah 16
10 La joie et l’allégresse ont disparu des campagnes; Dans les vignes, plus de chants, plus de réjouissances! Le vendangeur ne foule plus le vin dans les cuves; J’ai fait cesser les cris de joie.
11 Aussi mes entrailles frémissent sur Moab, comme une harpe, Et mon cœur sur Kir-Harès.
12 On voit Moab, qui se fatigue sur les hauts lieux; Il entre dans son sanctuaire pour prier, et il ne peut rien obtenir.
13 Telle est la parole que l’Éternel a prononcée dès longtemps sur Moab.
14 Et maintenant l’Éternel parle, et dit: Dans trois ans, comme les années d’un mercenaire, La gloire de Moab sera l’objet du mépris, Avec toute cette grande multitude; Et ce qui restera sera peu de chose, presque rien.
