Isaiah 5:2 in Context — Isaiah 5

1 Je chanterai à mon bien-aimé Le cantique de mon bien-aimé sur sa vigne. Mon bien-aimé avait une vigne, Sur un coteau fertile.

2 Il en remua le sol, ôta les pierres, et y mit un plant délicieux; Il bâtit une tour au milieu d’elle, Et il y creusa aussi une cuve. Puis il espéra qu’elle produirait de bons raisins, Mais elle en a produit de mauvais.

3 Maintenant donc, habitants de Jérusalem et hommes de Juda, Soyez juges entre moi et ma vigne!

4 Qu’y avait-il encore à faire à ma vigne, Que je n’aie pas fait pour elle? Pourquoi, quand j’ai espéré qu’elle produirait de bons raisins, En a-t-elle produit de mauvais?
