Isaiah 24:18 in Context — Isaiah 24

16 De l’extrémité de la terre nous entendons chanter: Gloire au juste! Mais moi je dis: Je suis perdu! Je suis perdu! Malheur à moi! Les pillards pillent, et les pillards s’acharnent au pillage.

17 La terreur, la fosse, et le filet, Sont sur toi, habitant du pays!

18 Celui qui fuit devant les cris de terreur tombe dans la fosse, Et celui qui remonte de la fosse se prend au filet; Car les écluses d’en haut s’ouvrent, Et les fondements de la terre sont ébranlés.

19 La terre est déchirée, La terre se brise, La terre chancelle.

20 La terre chancelle comme un homme ivre, Elle vacille comme une cabane; Son péché pèse sur elle, Elle tombe, et ne se relève plus.
