Isaiah 5:24 in Context — Isaiah 5
22 Malheur à ceux qui ont de la bravoure pour boire du vin, Et de la vaillance pour mêler des liqueurs fortes;
23 Qui justifient le coupable pour un présent, Et enlèvent aux innocents leurs droits!
24 C’est pourquoi, comme une langue de feu dévore le chaume, Et comme la flamme consume l’herbe sèche, Ainsi leur racine sera comme de la pourriture, Et leur fleur se dissipera comme de la poussière; Car ils ont dédaigné la loi de l’Éternel des armées, Et ils ont méprisé la parole du Saint d’Israël.
25 C’est pourquoi la colère de l’Éternel s’enflamme contre son peuple, Il étend sa main sur lui, et il le frappe; Les montagnes s’ébranlent; Et les cadavres sont comme des balayures au milieu des rues. Malgré tout cela, sa colère ne s’apaise point, Et sa main est encore étendue.
26 Il élève une bannière pour les peuples lointains, Et il en siffle un des extrémités de la terre: Et voici, il arrive avec promptitude et légèreté.
