Isaiah 17:9 in Context — Isaiah 17
7 En ce jour, l’homme regardera vers son créateur, Et ses yeux se tourneront vers le Saint d’Israël;
8 Il ne regardera plus vers les autels, Ouvrage de ses mains, Et il ne contemplera plus ce que ses doigts ont fabriqué, Les idoles d’Astarté et les statues du soleil.
9 En ce jour, ses villes fortes seront Comme des débris dans la forêt et sur la cime des montagnes, Abandonnés devant les enfants d’Israël: Et ce sera un désert.
10 Car tu as oublié le Dieu de ton salut, Tu ne t’es pas souvenu du rocher de ton refuge. Aussi tu as fait des plantations d’agrément, Tu as planté des ceps étrangers;
11 Lorsque tu les plantas, tu les entouras d’une haie, Et bientôt tu les fis venir en fleurs. Mais la récolte a fui, au moment de la jouissance: Et la douleur est sans remède.
