Isaiah 3:8 in Context — Isaiah 3

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.

10 Dites que le juste prospérera, Car il jouira du fruit de ses œuvres.
