Isaiah 47:11 in Context — Isaiah 47
9 Ces deux choses t’arriveront subitement, au même jour, La privation d’enfants et le veuvage; Elles fondront en plein sur toi, Malgré la multitude de tes sortilèges, Malgré le grand nombre de tes enchantements.
10 Tu avais confiance dans ta méchanceté, Tu disais: Personne ne me voit! Ta sagesse et ta science t’ont séduite. Et tu disais en ton cœur: Moi, et rien que moi!
11 Le malheur viendra sur toi, Sans que tu en voies l’aurore; La calamité tombera sur toi, Sans que tu puisses la conjurer; Et la ruine fondra sur toi tout à coup, A l’improviste.
12 Reste donc au milieu de tes enchantements Et de la multitude de tes sortilèges, Auxquels tu as consacré ton travail dès ta jeunesse; Peut-être pourras-tu en tirer profit, Peut-être deviendras-tu redoutable.
13 Tu t’es fatiguée à force de consulter: Qu’ils se lèvent donc et qu’ils te sauvent, Ceux qui connaissent le ciel, Qui observent les astres, Qui annoncent, d’après les nouvelles lunes, Ce qui doit t’arriver!
