Isaiah 47:8 in Context — Isaiah 47
6 J’étais irrité contre mon peuple, J’avais profané mon héritage, Et je les avais livrés entre tes mains: Tu n’as pas eu pour eux de la compassion, Tu as durement appesanti ton joug sur le vieillard.
7 Tu disais: A toujours je serai souveraine! Tu n’as point mis dans ton esprit, Tu n’as point songé que cela prendrait fin.
8 Écoute maintenant ceci, voluptueuse, Qui t’assieds avec assurance, Et qui dis en ton cœur: Moi, et rien que moi! Je ne serai jamais veuve, Et je ne serai jamais privée d’enfants!
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!
