Isaiah 5:14 in Context — Isaiah 5
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.
16 L’Éternel des armées sera élevé par le jugement, Et le Dieu saint sera sanctifié par la justice.
