Isaiah 5:7 in Context — Isaiah 5
5 Je vous dirai maintenant Ce que je vais faire à ma vigne. J’en arracherai la haie, pour qu’elle soit broutée; J’en abattrai la clôture, pour qu’elle soit foulée aux pieds.
6 Je la réduirai en ruine; elle ne sera plus taillée, ni cultivée; Les ronces et les épines y croîtront; Et je donnerai mes ordres aux nuées, Afin qu’elles ne laissent plus tomber la pluie sur elle.
7 La vigne de l’Éternel des armées, c’est la maison d’Israël, Et les hommes de Juda, c’est le plant qu’il chérissait. Il avait espéré de la droiture, et voici du sang versé! De la justice, et voici des cris de détresse!
8 Malheur à ceux qui ajoutent maison à maison, Et qui joignent champ à champ, Jusqu’à ce qu’il n’y ait plus d’espace, Et qu’ils habitent seuls au milieu du pays!
9 Voici ce que m’a révélé l’Éternel des armées: Certainement, ces maisons nombreuses seront dévastées, Ces grandes et belles maisons n’auront plus d’habitants.
