Job 19:23 in Context — Job 19
21 Ayez pitié, ayez pitié de moi, vous, mes amis! Car la main de Dieu m’a frappé.
22 Pourquoi me poursuivre comme Dieu me poursuit? Pourquoi vous montrer insatiables de ma chair?
23 Oh! Je voudrais que mes paroles fussent écrites, Qu’elles fussent écrites dans un livre;
24 Je voudrais qu’avec un burin de fer et avec du plomb Elles fussent pour toujours gravées dans le roc…
25 Mais je sais que mon rédempteur est vivant, Et qu’il se lèvera le dernier sur la terre.
