Isaiah 49:8 in Context — Isaiah 49

6 Il dit: C’est peu que tu sois mon serviteur Pour relever les tribus de Jacob Et pour ramener les restes d’Israël: Je t’établis pour être la lumière des nations, Pour porter mon salut jusqu’aux extrémités de la terre.

7 Ainsi parle l’Éternel, le rédempteur, le Saint d’Israël, A celui qu’on méprise, qui est en horreur au peuple, A l’esclave des puissants: Des rois le verront, et ils se lèveront, Des princes, et ils se prosterneront, A cause de l’Éternel, qui est fidèle, Du Saint d’Israël, qui t’a choisi.

8 Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Au temps de la grâce je t’exaucerai, Et au jour du salut je te secourrai; Je te garderai, et je t’établirai pour traiter alliance avec le peuple, Pour relever le pays, Et pour distribuer les héritages désolés;

9 Pour dire aux captifs: Sortez! Et à ceux qui sont dans les ténèbres: Paraissez! Ils paîtront sur les chemins, Et ils trouveront des pâturages sur tous les coteaux.

10 Ils n’auront pas faim et ils n’auront pas soif; Le mirage et le soleil ne les feront point souffrir; Car celui qui a pitié d’eux sera leur guide, Et il les conduira vers des sources d’eaux.
