Isaiah 33:16 in Context — Isaiah 33

14 Les pécheurs sont effrayés dans Sion, Un tremblement saisit les impies: Qui de nous pourra rester auprès d’un feu dévorant? Qui de nous pourra rester auprès de flammes éternelles?

15 Celui qui marche dans la justice, Et qui parle selon la droiture, Qui méprise un gain acquis par extorsion, Qui secoue les mains pour ne pas accepter un présent, Qui ferme l’oreille pour ne pas entendre des propos sanguinaires, Et qui se bande les yeux pour ne pas voir le mal,

16 Celui-là habitera dans des lieux élevés; Des rochers fortifiés seront sa retraite; Du pain lui sera donné, De l’eau lui sera assurée.

17 Tes yeux verront le roi dans sa magnificence, Ils contempleront le pays dans toute son étendue.

18 Ton cœur se souviendra de la terreur: Où est le secrétaire, où est le trésorier? Où est celui qui inspectait les tours?
