Isaiah 48:18 in Context — Isaiah 48
16 Approchez-vous de moi, et écoutez! Dès le commencement, je n’ai point parlé en cachette, Dès l’origine de ces choses, j’ai été là. Et maintenant, le Seigneur, l’Éternel, m’a envoyé avec son esprit.
17 Ainsi parle l’Éternel, ton rédempteur, le Saint d’Israël: Moi, l’Éternel, ton Dieu, je t’instruis pour ton bien, Je te conduis dans la voie que tu dois suivre.
18 Oh! Si tu étais attentif à mes commandements! Ton bien-être serait comme un fleuve, Et ton bonheur comme les flots de la mer;
19 Ta postérité serait comme le sable, Et les fruits de tes entrailles comme les grains de sable; Ton nom ne serait point effacé, anéanti devant moi.
20 Sortez de Babylone, fuyez du milieu des Chaldéens! Avec une voix d’allégresse annoncez-le, publiez-le, Faites-le savoir jusqu’à l’extrémité de la terre, Dites: L’Éternel a racheté son serviteur Jacob!
