Isaiah 56:10 in Context — Isaiah 56

8 Le Seigneur, l’Éternel, parle, Lui qui rassemble les exilés d’Israël: Je réunirai d’autres peuples à lui, aux siens déjà rassemblés.

9 Vous toutes, bêtes des champs, Venez pour manger, vous toutes, bêtes de la forêt!

10 Ses gardiens sont tous aveugles, sans intelligence; Ils sont tous des chiens muets, incapables d’aboyer; Ils ont des rêveries, se tiennent couchés, Aiment à sommeiller.

11 Et ce sont des chiens voraces, insatiables; Ce sont des bergers qui ne savent rien comprendre; Tous suivent leur propre voie, Chacun selon son intérêt, jusqu’au dernier:

12 Venez, je vais chercher du vin, Et nous boirons des liqueurs fortes! Nous en ferons autant demain, Et beaucoup plus encore!
