Isaiah 16:6 in Context — Isaiah 16

4 Laisse séjourner chez toi les exilés de Moab, Sois pour eux un refuge contre le dévastateur! Car l’oppression cessera, la dévastation finira, Celui qui foule le pays disparaîtra.

5 Et le trône s’affermira par la clémence; Et l’on y verra siéger fidèlement, dans la maison de David, Un juge ami du droit et zélé pour la justice.

6 Nous entendons l’orgueil du superbe Moab, Sa fierté et sa hauteur, son arrogance et ses vains discours.

7 C’est pourquoi Moab gémit sur Moab, tout gémit; Vous soupirez sur les ruines de Kir-Haréseth, Profondément abattus.

8 Car les campagnes de Hesbon languissent; Les maîtres des nations ont brisé les ceps de la vigne de Sibma, Qui s’étendaient jusqu’à Jaezer, qui erraient dans le désert: Les rameaux se prolongeaient, et allaient au-delà de la mer.
