Isaiah 23:7 in Context — Isaiah 23

5 Quand les Égyptiens sauront la nouvelle, Ils trembleront en apprenant la chute de Tyr.

6 Passez à Tarsis, Lamentez-vous, habitants de la côte!

7 Est-ce là votre ville joyeuse? Elle avait une origine antique, Et ses pieds la mènent séjourner au loin.

8 Qui a pris cette résolution contre Tyr, la dispensatrice des couronnes, Elle dont les marchands étaient des princes, Dont les commerçants étaient les plus riches de la terre?

9 C’est l’Éternel des armées qui a pris cette résolution, Pour blesser l’orgueil de tout ce qui brille, Pour humilier tous les grands de la terre.
