15 Contre toutes les hautes tours, Et contre toutes les murailles fortifiées;

16 Contre tous les navires de Tarsis, Et contre tout ce qui plaît à la vue.

17 L’homme orgueilleux sera humilié, Et le hautain sera abaissé: L’Éternel seul sera élevé ce jour-là.

18 Toutes les idoles disparaîtront.

19 On entrera dans les cavernes des rochers Et dans les profondeurs de la poussière, Pour éviter la terreur de l’Éternel et l’éclat de sa majesté, Quand il se lèvera pour effrayer la terre.
