Isaiah 28:15 in Context — Isaiah 28
13 Et pour eux la parole de l’Éternel sera Précepte sur précepte, précepte sur précepte, Règle sur règle, règle sur règle, Un peu ici, un peu là, Afin qu’en marchant ils tombent à la renverse et se brisent, Afin qu’ils soient enlacés et pris.
14 Écoutez donc la parole de l’Éternel, moqueurs, Vous qui dominez sur ce peuple de Jérusalem!
15 Vous dites: Nous avons fait une alliance avec la mort, Nous avons fait un pacte avec le séjour des morts; Quand le fléau débordé passera, il ne nous atteindra pas, Car nous avons la fausseté pour refuge et le mensonge pour abri.
16 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Voici, j’ai mis pour fondement en Sion une pierre, Une pierre éprouvée, une pierre angulaire de prix, solidement posée; Celui qui la prendra pour appui n’aura point hâte de fuir.
17 Je ferai de la droiture une règle, Et de la justice un niveau; Et la grêle emportera le refuge de la fausseté, Et les eaux inonderont l’abri du mensonge.
