Isaiah 48:9 in Context — Isaiah 48

7 Elles se produisent à présent, et n’appartiennent point au passé; Jusqu’à leur avènement tu n’en avais aucune connaissance, Afin que tu ne dises pas: Voici, je le savais.

8 Tu n’en as rien appris, tu n’en as rien su, Et jadis ton oreille n’en a point été frappée: Car je savais que tu serais infidèle, Et que dès ta naissance tu fus appelé rebelle.

9 A cause de mon nom, je suspends ma colère; A cause de ma gloire, je me contiens envers toi, Pour ne pas t’exterminer.

10 Je t’ai mis au creuset, mais non pour retirer de l’argent; Je t’ai éprouvé dans la fournaise de l’adversité.

11 C’est pour l’amour de moi, pour l’amour de moi, que je veux agir; Car comment mon nom serait-il profané? Je ne donnerai pas ma gloire à un autre.
