Isaiah 16:8 in Context — Isaiah 16
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.
9 Aussi je pleure sur la vigne de Sibma, comme sur Jaezer; Je vous arrose de mes larmes, Hesbon, Élealé! Car sur votre récolte et sur votre moisson Est venu fondre un cri de guerre.
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.
