Isaiah 59:15 in Context — Isaiah 59
13 Nous avons été coupables et infidèles envers l’Éternel, Nous avons abandonné notre Dieu; Nous avons proféré la violence et la révolte, Conçu et médité dans le cœur des paroles de mensonge;
14 Et la délivrance s’est retirée, Et le salut se tient éloigné; Car la vérité trébuche sur la place publique, Et la droiture ne peut approcher.
15 La vérité a disparu, Et celui qui s’éloigne du mal est dépouillé. L’Éternel voit, d’un regard indigné, Qu’il n’y a plus de droiture.
16 Il voit qu’il n’y a pas un homme, Il s’étonne de ce que personne n’intercède; Alors son bras lui vient en aide, Et sa justice lui sert d’appui.
17 Il se revêt de la justice comme d’une cuirasse, Et il met sur sa tête le casque du salut; Il prend la vengeance pour vêtement, Et il se couvre de la jalousie comme d’un manteau.
