Leurs toiles ne feront pas un vêtement, ils ne pourront se vêtir de leurs oeuvres; leurs oeuvres sont des oeuvres mauvaises, les actes de violence sont dans leurs mains.

Que signifie ce verset ?

This verse says that the work of evil people is useless, like trying to make clothes from spider webs. It is written by the prophet Isaiah, and it tells us that their actions are wicked and harmful to others.

Expliqué aux enfants

Imagine you're trying to make a blanket out of spider webs; it wouldn't work, right? This verse is saying that the things bad people do are like those spider webs—they can't make anything good out of them. Their actions are always doing wrong things to others.

Application pour aujourd'hui

Think about a situation where someone at work is constantly gossiping and spreading lies. Their actions might seem harmless, but they're actually causing harm and won't lead to any good results for them or others.
