Isaiah 59	Esaïe 59
Isaiah 59:1 Truly, the Lord's hand has not become short, so that he is unable to give salvation; and his ear is not shut from hearing:	Esaïe 59:1 Non, la main de l`Éternel n`est pas trop courte pour sauver, Ni son oreille trop dure pour entendre.
Isaiah 59:2 But your sins have come between you and your God, and by your evil doings his face has been veiled from you, so that he will give you no answer.	Esaïe 59:2 Mais ce sont vos crimes qui mettent une séparation Entre vous et votre Dieu; Ce sont vos péchés qui vous cachent sa face Et l`empêchent de vous écouter.
Isaiah 59:3 For your hands are unclean with blood, and your fingers with sin; your lips have said false things, and your tongue gives out deceit.	Esaïe 59:3 Car vos mains sont souillées de sang, Et vos doigts de crimes; Vos lèvres profèrent le mensonge, Votre langue fait entendre l`iniquité.
Isaiah 59:4 No one puts forward an upright cause, or gives a true decision: their hope is in deceit, and their words are false; they are with child with sin, and give birth to evil.	Esaïe 59:4 Nul ne se plaint avec justice, Nul ne plaide avec droiture; Ils s`appuient sur des choses vaines et disent des faussetés, Ils conçoivent le mal et enfantent le crime.
Isaiah 59:5 They give birth to snake's eggs, and make spider's threads: whoever takes their eggs for food comes to his death, and the egg which is crushed becomes a poison-snake.	Esaïe 59:5 Il couvent des oeufs de basilic, Et ils tissent des toiles d`araignée. Celui qui mange de leurs oeufs meurt; Et, si l`on en brise un, il sort une vipère.
Isaiah 59:6 Their twisted threads will not make clothing, and their works will give them nothing for covering themselves: their works are works of sin, and violent acts are in their hands.	Esaïe 59:6 Leurs toiles ne servent point à faire un vêtement, Et ils ne peuvent se couvrir de leur ouvrage; Leurs oeuvres sont des oeuvres d`iniquité, Et les actes de violence sont dans leurs mains.
Isaiah 59:7 Their feet go quickly to evil, and they take delight in the death of the upright; their thoughts are thoughts of sin; wasting and destruction are in their ways.	Esaïe 59:7 Leurs pieds courent au mal, Et ils ont hâte de répandre le sang innocent; Leurs pensées sont des pensées d`iniquité, Le ravage et la ruine sont sur leur route.
Isaiah 59:8 They have no knowledge of the way of peace, and there is no sense of what is right in their behaviour: they have made for themselves ways which are not straight; whoever goes in them has no knowledge of peace.	Esaïe 59:8 Ils ne connaissent pas le chemin de la paix, Et il n`y a point de justice dans leurs voies; Ils prennent des sentiers détournés: Quiconque y marche ne connaît point la paix. -
Isaiah 59:9 For this cause our right is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us: we are looking for light, but there is only the dark; for the shining of the sun, but our way is in the night.	Esaïe 59:9 C`est pourquoi l`arrêt de délivrance est loin de nous, Et le salut ne nous atteint pas; Nous attendons la lumière, et voici les ténèbres, La clarté, et nous marchons dans l`obscurité.
Isaiah 59:10 We go on our way, like blind men feeling for the wall, even like those who have no eyes: we are running against things in daylight as if it was evening; our place is in the dark like dead men.	Esaïe 59:10 Nous tâtonnons comme des aveugles le long d`un mur, Nous tâtonnons comme ceux qui n`ont point d`yeux; Nous chancelons à midi comme de nuit, Au milieu de l`abondance nous ressemblons à des morts.
Isaiah 59:11 We make noises of grief, like bears, and sad sounds like doves: we are looking for our right, but it is not there; for salvation, but it is far from us.	Esaïe 59:11 Nous grondons tous comme des ours, Nous gémissons comme des colombes; Nous attendons la délivrance, et elle n`est pas là, Le salut, et il est loin de nous.
Isaiah 59:12 For our evil doings are increased before you, and our sins give witness against us: for our evil doings are with us, and we have knowledge of our sins:	Esaïe 59:12 Car nos transgressions sont nombreuses devant toi, Et nos péchés témoignent contre nous; Nos transgressions sont avec nous, Et nous connaissons nos crimes.
Isaiah 59:13 We have gone against the Lord, and been false to him, turning away from our God, our words have been uncontrolled, and in our hearts are thoughts of deceit.	Esaïe 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 coeur des paroles de mensonge;
Isaiah 59:14 And the right is turned back, and righteousness is far away: for good faith is not to be seen in the public places, and upright behaviour may not come into the town.	Esaïe 59:14 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.
Isaiah 59:15 Yes, faith is gone; and he whose heart is turned from evil comes into the power of the cruel: and the Lord saw it, and he was angry that there was no one to take up their cause.	Esaïe 59:15 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.
Isaiah 59:16 And he saw that there was no man, and was surprised that there was no one to take up their cause: so his arm gave salvation, and he made righteousness his support.	Esaïe 59:16 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.
Isaiah 59:17 Yes, he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and salvation as a head-dress; and he put on punishment as clothing, and wrath as a robe.	Esaïe 59:17 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.
Isaiah 59:18 He will give them the right reward of their doings, wrath to his attackers, punishment to his haters, and even on the sea-lands he will send punishment.	Esaïe 59:18 Il rendra à chacun selon ses oeuvres, La fureur à ses adversaires, La pareille à ses ennemis; Il rendra la pareille aux îles.
Isaiah 59:19 So they will see the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the east: for he will come like a rushing stream, forced on by a wind of the Lord.	Esaïe 59:19 On craindra le nom de l`Éternel depuis l`occident, Et sa gloire depuis le soleil levant; Quand l`ennemi viendra comme un fleuve, L`esprit de l`Éternel le mettra en fuite.
Isaiah 59:20 And as a saviour he will come to Zion, turning away sin from Jacob, says the Lord.	Esaïe 59:20 Un rédempteur viendra pour Sion, Pour ceux de Jacob qui se convertiront de leurs péchés, Dit l`Éternel.
Isaiah 59:21 And as for me, this is my agreement with them, says the Lord: my spirit which is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, will not go away from your mouth, or from the mouth of your seed, or from the mouth of your seed's seed, says the Lord, from now and for ever.	Esaïe 59:21 Voici mon alliance avec eux, dit l`Éternel: Mon esprit, qui repose sur toi, Et mes paroles, que j`ai mises dans ta bouche, Ne se retireront point de ta bouche, ni de la bouche de tes enfants, Ni de la bouche des enfants de tes enfants, Dit l`Éternel, dès maintenant et à jamais.
