Isaías 16
Sainte Bible libre pour le monde
1Envoyez les agneaux au souverain du pays, depuis Séla, par le désert, vers la montagne de la fille de Sion.
2Car, pareilles à des oiseaux fuyants, à une couvée dispersée, telles seront les filles de Moab aux gués de l'Arnon.
3Donne conseil ! Fais justice ! Rends ton ombre pareille à la nuit en plein midi ! Cache les exilés ! Ne trahis pas le fugitif !
4Laisse mes exilés séjourner chez toi ! Quant à Moab, sois pour lui un refuge face au destructeur. Car l'oppresseur a disparu, la destruction a cessé, ceux qui piétinaient le pays ont été consumés.
5Un trône sera affermi dans l'amour fidèle. Quelqu'un s'y assiéra dans la vérité, dans la tente de David, pour juger, chercher le droit et faire promptement la justice.
6Nous avons entendu parler de l'orgueil de Moab, de son extrême fierté, de son arrogance, de sa présomption et de sa fureur. Ses vantardises ne sont que vanité.
7C'est pourquoi Moab se lamentera sur Moab. Tous se lamenteront. Vous gémirez sur les gâteaux de raisins de Kir-Haréseth, complètement abattus.
8Car les campagnes de Hesbon dépérissent, ainsi que la vigne de Sibma. Les maîtres des nations ont brisé ses meilleurs ceps, qui atteignaient jusqu'à Jaezer, qui s'égaraient dans le désert. Ses sarments s'étendaient au loin, ils franchissaient la mer.
9C'est pourquoi je pleurerai avec les pleurs de Jaezer sur la vigne de Sibma. Je t'arroserai de mes larmes, Hesbon, et toi, Élealé, car sur tes fruits d'été et sur ta moisson a retenti le cri de guerre.
10L'allégresse et la joie ont disparu des vergers ; dans les vignes, il n'y a plus de chants, plus de cris de joie. Personne ne foule le vin dans les pressoirs. J'ai fait cesser les cris de vendange.
11C'est pourquoi mon cœur frémit comme une harpe pour Moab, et mes entrailles pour Kir-Hérès.
12Il arrivera que lorsque Moab se présentera et s'épuisera sur le haut lieu, lorsqu'il viendra dans son sanctuaire pour prier, il ne pourra rien.
13Telle est la parole que le SEIGNEUR a prononcée autrefois concernant Moab.
14Mais maintenant, le SEIGNEUR déclare : « Dans trois ans, comptés comme les années d'un mercenaire, la gloire de Moab tombera dans le mépris, avec toute sa grande multitude ; et le reste sera très faible et sans force. »
Reina-Valera 1909
1ENVIAD cordero al enseñoreador de la tierra, desde la Piedra del desierto al monte de la hija de Sión.
2Y será que cual ave espantada que se huye de su nido, así serán las hijas de Moab en los vados de Arnón.
3Reune consejo, haz juicio; pon tu sombra en medio del día como la noche: esconde los desterrados, no entregues á los que andan errantes.
4Moren contigo mis desterrados, oh Moab; séles escondedero de la presencia del destruidor: porque el atormentador fenecerá, el destruidor tendrá fin, el hollador será consumido de sobre la tierra.
5Y dispondráse trono en misericordia; y sobre él se sentará firmemente, en el tabernáculo de David, quien juzgue y busque el juicio, y apresure la justicia.
6Oído hemos la soberbia de Moab, por extremo soberbio; su soberbia y su arrogancia, y su altivez; mas sus mentiras no serán firmes.
7Por tanto aullará Moab, todo él aullará: gemiréis por los fundamentos de Kir-hareseth, en gran manera heridos.
8Porque los campos de Hesbón fueron talados, y las vides de Sibma; señores de gentes hollaron sus generosos sarmientos; habían llegado hasta Jazer, y extendídose por el desierto; extendiéronse sus plantas, pasaron la mar.
9Por lo cual lamentaré con lloro de Jazer la viña de Sibma; embriagarte hé de mis lágrimas, oh Hesbón y Eleale: porque sobre tus cosechas y sobre tu siega caerá la algazara.
10Quitado es el gozo y la alegría del campo fértil; en las viñas no cantarán, ni se regocijarán; no pisará vino en los lagares el pisador: la canción he hecho cesar.
11Por tanto mis entrañas sonarán como arpa acerca de Moab, y mi interior en orden á Kir-hareseth.
12Y acaecerá, que cuando Moab pareciere que está cansado sobre los altos, entonces vendrá á su santuario á orar, y no le valdrá.
13Esta es la palabra que pronunció Jehová sobre Moab desde aquel tiempo.
14Empero ahora Jehová ha hablado, diciendo: Dentro de tres años, como años de mozo de soldada, será abatida la gloria de Moab, con toda su grande multitud: y los residuos serán pocos, pequeños, y no fuertes.
King James Version
1Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
2For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon.
3Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth.
4Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.
5And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.
6We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so.
7Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, every one shall howl: for the foundations of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken.
8For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come even unto Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea.
9Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.
10And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease.
11Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-haresh.
12And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.
13This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.
14But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble.
World English Bible
1Send the lambs for the ruler of the land from Selah to the wilderness, to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.
2For it will be that as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.
3Give counsel! Execute justice! Make your shade like the night in the middle of the noonday! Hide the outcasts! Don’t betray the fugitive!
4Let my outcasts dwell with you! As for Moab, be a hiding place for him from the face of the destroyer. For the extortionist is brought to nothing. Destruction ceases. The oppressors are consumed out of the land.
5A throne will be established in loving kindness. One will sit on it in truth, in the tent of David, judging, seeking justice, and swift to do righteousness.
6We have heard of the pride of Moab, that he is very proud; even of his arrogance, his pride, and his wrath. His boastings are nothing.
7Therefore Moab will wail for Moab. Everyone will wail. You will mourn for the raisin cakes of Kir Hareseth, utterly stricken.
8For the fields of Heshbon languish with the vine of Sibmah. The lords of the nations have broken down its choice branches, which reached even to Jazer, which wandered into the wilderness. Its shoots were spread abroad. They passed over the sea.
9Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah. I will water you with my tears, Heshbon, and Elealeh: for on your summer fruits and on your harvest the battle shout has fallen.
10Gladness is taken away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there will be no singing, neither joyful noise. Nobody will tread out wine in the presses. I have made the shouting stop.
11Therefore my heart sounds like a harp for Moab, and my inward parts for Kir Heres.
12It will happen that when Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself on the high place, and comes to his sanctuary to pray, that he will not prevail.
13This is the word that the LORD spoke concerning Moab in time past.
14But now the LORD has spoken, saying, “Within three years, as a worker bound by contract would count them, the glory of Moab shall be brought into contempt, with all his great multitude; and the remnant will be very small and feeble.”
