Isaiah 45:2 in Context — Isaiah 45

1 Ainsi parle l’Éternel à son oint, à Cyrus, Qu’il tient par la main, Pour terrasser les nations devant lui, Et pour relâcher la ceinture des rois, Pour lui ouvrir les portes, Afin qu’elles ne soient plus fermées;

2 Je marcherai devant toi, J’aplanirai les chemins montueux, Je romprai les portes d’airain, Et je briserai les verrous de fer.

3 Je te donnerai des trésors cachés, Des richesses enfouies, Afin que tu saches Que je suis l’Éternel qui t’appelle par ton nom, Le Dieu d’Israël.

4 Pour l’amour de mon serviteur Jacob, Et d’Israël, mon élu, Je t’ai appelé par ton nom, Je t’ai parlé avec bienveillance, avant que tu me connusses.
