Isaiah 29:20 in Context — Isaiah 29

18 En ce jour-là, les sourds entendront les paroles du livre; Et, délivrés de l’obscurité et des ténèbres, Les yeux des aveugles verront.

19 Les malheureux se réjouiront de plus en plus en l’Éternel, Et les pauvres feront du Saint d’Israël le sujet de leur allégresse.

20 Car le violent ne sera plus, le moqueur aura fini, Et tous ceux qui veillaient pour l’iniquité seront exterminés,

21 Ceux qui condamnaient les autres en justice, Tendaient des pièges à qui défendait sa cause à la porte, Et violaient par la fraude les droits de l’innocent.

22 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle l’Éternel à la maison de Jacob, Lui qui a racheté Abraham: Maintenant Jacob ne rougira plus, Maintenant son visage ne pâlira plus.
