Isaiah 3:7 in Context — Isaiah 3
5 Il y aura réciprocité d’oppression parmi le peuple; L’un opprimera l’autre, chacun son prochain; Le jeune homme attaquera le vieillard, Et l’homme de rien celui qui est honoré.
6 On ira jusqu’à saisir son frère dans la maison paternelle: Tu as un habit, sois notre chef! Prends ces ruines sous ta main!
7 Ce jour-là même il répondra: Je ne saurais être un médecin, Et dans ma maison il n’y a ni pain ni vêtement; Ne m’établissez pas chef du peuple!
8 Jérusalem chancelle, Et Juda s’écroule, Parce que leurs paroles et leurs œuvres sont contre l’Éternel, Bravant les regards de sa majesté.
9 L’aspect de leur visage témoigne contre eux, Et, comme Sodome, ils publient leur crime, sans dissimuler. Malheur à leur âme! Car ils se préparent des maux.
