Isaiah 29:14 in Context — Isaiah 29
12 Ou comme un livre que l’on donne A un homme qui ne sait pas lire, en disant: Lis donc cela! Et qui répond: Je ne sais pas lire.
13 Le Seigneur dit: Quand ce peuple s’approche de moi, Il m’honore de la bouche et des lèvres; Mais son cœur est éloigné de moi, Et la crainte qu’il a de moi N’est qu’un précepte de tradition humaine.
14 C’est pourquoi je frapperai encore ce peuple Par des prodiges et des miracles; Et la sagesse de ses sages périra, Et l’intelligence de ses hommes intelligents disparaîtra.
15 Malheur à ceux qui cachent leurs desseins Pour les dérober à l’Éternel, Qui font leurs œuvres dans les ténèbres, Et qui disent: Qui nous voit et qui nous connaît?
16 Quelle perversité est la vôtre! Le potier doit-il être considéré comme de l’argile, Pour que l’ouvrage dise de l’ouvrier: Il ne m’a point fait? Pour que le vase dise du potier: Il n’a point d’intelligence?
