Isaiah 44:16 in Context — Isaiah 44

14 Il se coupe des cèdres, Il prend des rouvres et des chênes, Et fait un choix parmi les arbres de la forêt; Il plante des pins, Et la pluie les fait croître.

15 Ces arbres servent à l’homme pour brûler, Il en prend et il se chauffe. Il y met aussi le feu pour cuire du pain; Et il en fait également un dieu, qu’il adore, Il en fait une idole, devant laquelle il se prosterne.

16 Il brûle au feu la moitié de son bois, Avec cette moitié il cuit de la viande, Il apprête un rôti, et se rassasie; Il se chauffe aussi, et dit: Ha! Ha! Je me chauffe, je vois la flamme!

17 Et avec le reste il fait un dieu, son idole, Il se prosterne devant elle, il l’adore, il l’invoque, Et s’écrie: Sauve-moi! Car tu es mon dieu!

18 Ils n’ont ni intelligence, ni entendement, Car on leur a fermé les yeux pour qu’ils ne voient point, Et le cœur pour qu’ils ne comprennent point.
