Isaiah 5:13 in Context — Isaiah 5
11 Malheur à ceux qui de bon matin Courent après les boissons enivrantes, Et qui bien avant dans la nuit Sont échauffés par le vin!
12 La harpe et le luth, le tambourin, la flûte et le vin, animent leurs festins; Mais ils ne prennent point garde à l’œuvre de l’Éternel, Et ils ne voient point le travail de ses mains.
13 C’est pourquoi mon peuple sera soudain emmené captif; Sa noblesse mourra de faim, Et sa multitude sera desséchée par la soif.
14 C’est pourquoi le séjour des morts ouvre sa bouche, Élargit sa gueule outre mesure; Alors descendent la magnificence et la richesse de Sion, Et sa foule bruyante et joyeuse.
15 Les petits seront abattus, les grands seront humiliés, Et les regards des hautains seront abaissés.
