Isaiah 30:2 in Context — Isaiah 30

1 Malheur, dit l’Éternel, aux enfants rebelles, Qui prennent des résolutions sans moi, Et qui font des alliances sans ma volonté, Pour accumuler péché sur péché!

2 Qui descendent en Égypte sans me consulter, Pour se réfugier sous la protection de Pharaon, Et chercher un abri sous l’ombre de l’Égypte!

3 La protection de Pharaon sera pour vous une honte, Et l’abri sous l’ombre de l’Égypte une ignominie.

4 Déjà ses princes sont à Tsoan, Et ses envoyés ont atteint Hanès.
