Isaiah 28:24 in Context — Isaiah 28

22 Maintenant, ne vous livrez point à la moquerie, De peur que vos liens ne soient resserrés; Car la destruction de tout le pays est résolue; Je l’ai appris du Seigneur, de l’Éternel des armées.

23 Prêtez l’oreille, et écoutez ma voix! Soyez attentifs, et écoutez ma parole!

24 Celui qui laboure pour semer laboure-t-il toujours? Ouvre-t-il et brise-t-il toujours son terrain?

25 N’est-ce pas après en avoir aplani la surface Qu’il répand de la nielle et sème du cumin; Qu’il met le froment par rangées, L’orge à une place marquée, Et l’épeautre sur les bords?

26 Son Dieu lui a enseigné la marche à suivre, Il lui a donné ses instructions.
