Commentaire sur Isaïe 63:15
הַבֵּ֤ט מִשָּׁמַ֙יִם֙ וּרְאֵ֔ה מִזְּבֻ֥ל קָדְשְׁךָ֖ וְתִפְאַרְתֶּ֑ךָ אַיֵּ֤ה קִנְאָֽתְךָ֙ וּגְב֣וּרֹתֶ֔ךָ הֲמ֥וֹן מֵעֶ֛יךָ וְֽרַחֲמֶ֖יךָ אֵלַ֥י הִתְאַפָּֽקוּ׃
Du haut du Ciel regarde et vois, du séjour de ta sainteté et de ta gloire: où est ta tendresse ardente et ta puissance? L’émotion de tes entrailles et ta compassion se refusent à moi.
