| 1 | Et il arriva, après bien des jours, que la parole de l'Éternel vint à Élie, la troisième année, disant: Va, montre-toi à Achab, et je donnerai de la pluie sur la face de la terre. | And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth. | And it came to pass after many days, that the word of Jehovah came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, Go, show thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth. |
| 2 | Et Élie s'en alla pour se montrer à Achab. | And Elijah went to shew himself unto Ahab. And there was a sore famine in Samaria. | And Elijah went to show himself unto Ahab. And the famine was sore in Samaria. |
| 3 | Et la famine était forte à Samarie. Et Achab appela Abdias qui était préposé sur sa maison; (et Abdias craignait beaucoup l'Éternel. | And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly: | And Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared Jehovah greatly: |
| 4 | Et il était arrivé, quand Jézabel exterminait les prophètes de l'Éternel, qu'Abdias avait pris cent prophètes et les avait cachés par cinquante hommes dans une caverne, et les avait nourris de pain et d'eau.) | For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.) | for it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of Jehovah, that Obadiah took a hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.) |
| 5 | Et Achab dit à Abdias: Va dans le pays, à toutes les sources d'eaux, et à tous les torrents; peut-être trouverons-nous de l'herbage, et nous conserverons la vie aux chevaux et aux mulets, et nous ne serons pas obligés de détruire de nos bêtes. | And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts. | And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go through the land, unto all the fountains of water, and unto all the brooks: peradventure we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts. |
| 6 | Et ils se partagèrent le pays pour le parcourir. Achab s'en alla seul par un chemin, et Abdias alla seul par un autre chemin. | So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. | So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. |
| 7 | Et comme Abdias était en chemin, voici, Élie le rencontra; et il le reconnut, et tomba sur sa face, et dit: Est-ce bien toi, mon seigneur Élie? | And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou that my lord Elijah? | And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Is it thou, my lord Elijah? |
| 8 | Et il lui dit: C'est moi; va, dis à ton seigneur: Voici Élie! | And he answered him, I am: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here. | And he answered him, It is I: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah [is here]. |
| 9 | Et il dit: Quel péché ai-je commis, que tu livres ton serviteur en la main d'Achab, pour me faire mourir? | And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me? | And he said, Wherein have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me? |
| 10 | L'Éternel, ton Dieu, est vivant, s'il y a nation ou royaume où mon seigneur n'ait pas envoyé pour te chercher! Et quand ils disaient: Il n'est pas ici, il faisait jurer le royaume ou la nation qu'on ne t'avait pas trouvé. | As the LORD thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not. | As Jehovah thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not here, he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not. |
| 11 | Et maintenant, tu dis: Va, dis à ton seigneur: Voici Élie! | And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here. | And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah [is here]. |
| 12 | Et il arrivera, dès que je m'en irai d'auprès de toi, que l'Esprit de l'Éternel te portera je ne sais où; et je serai venu informer Achab, et il ne te trouvera pas, et il me tuera. Et ton serviteur craint l'Éternel dès sa jeunesse. | And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of the LORD shall carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he shall slay me: but I thy servant fear the LORD from my youth. | And it will come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of Jehovah will carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he will slay me: but I thy servant fear Jehovah from my youth. |
| 13 | N'a-t-on pas rapporté à mon seigneur ce que j'ai fait quand Jézabel tuait les prophètes de l'Éternel, comment j'ai caché cent hommes des prophètes de l'Éternel, par cinquante hommes dans une caverne, et je les ai nourris de pain et d'eau? | Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the LORD, how I hid an hundred men of the LORD's prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water? | Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of Jehovah, how I hid a hundred men of Jehovah`s prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water? |
| 14 | Et maintenant tu dis: Va, dis à ton seigneur: Voici Élie! Et il me tuera. | And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he shall slay me. | And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah [is here]; and he will slay me. |
| 15 | Et Élie dit: L'Éternel des armées, devant qui je me tiens, est vivant, qu'aujourd'hui je me montrerai à lui. | And Elijah said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day. | And Elijah said, As Jehovah of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself unto him to-day. |
| 16 | Et Abdias s'en alla à la rencontre d'Achab, et le lui rapporta. | So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him: and Ahab went to meet Elijah. | So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah. |
| 17 | Et Achab alla à la rencontre d'Élie. Et il arriva que, quand Achab vit Élie, Achab lui dit: Est-ce bien toi, - celui qui trouble Israël? | And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? | And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Is it thou, thou troubler of Israel? |
| 18 | Et il dit: Je ne trouble pas Israël, mais c'est toi et la maison de ton père, parce que vous avez abandonné les commandements de l'Éternel et que tu as marché après les Baals. | And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim. | And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father`s house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of Jehovah, and thou hast followed the Baalim. |
| 19 | Et maintenant, envoie, rassemble vers moi tout Israël, à la montagne du Carmel, et les quatre cent cinquante prophètes de Baal et les quatre cents prophètes des ashères, qui mangent à la table de Jézabel. | Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table. | Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the Asherah four hundred, that eat at Jezebel`s table. |
| 20 | Et Achab envoya à tous les fils d'Israël, et rassembla les prophètes à la montagne du Carmel. | So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel. | So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel. |
| 21 | Et Élie s'approcha de tout le peuple, et dit: Combien de temps hésiterez-vous entre les deux côtés? Si l'Éternel est Dieu, suivez-le; et si c'est Baal, suivez-le! Et le peuple ne lui répondit mot. | And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. | And Elijah came near unto all the people, and said, How long go ye limping between the two sides? if Jehovah be God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. |
| 22 | Et Élie dit au peuple: Je reste, moi seul, prophète de l'Éternel, et les prophètes de Baal sont quatre cent cinquante hommes. | Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men. | Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, am left a prophet of Jehovah; but Baal`s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. |
| 23 | Qu'on nous donne deux taureaux; et qu'ils choisissent pour eux l'un des taureaux, et qu'ils le dépècent, et qu'ils le placent sur le bois, et qu'ils n'y mettent pas de feu; et moi j'offrirai l'autre taureau, et je le placerai sur le bois, et je n'y mettrai pas de feu. | Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: | Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under. |
| 24 | Et vous invoquerez le nom de votre dieu, et moi j'invoquerai le nom de l'Éternel, et le dieu qui répondra par le feu, lui, sera Dieu. Et tout le peuple répondit et dit: La parole est bonne. | And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. | And call ye on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of Jehovah; and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. |
| 25 | Et Élie dit aux prophètes de Baal: Choisissez pour vous l'un des taureaux, et offrez les premiers, car vous êtes nombreux, et invoquez le nom de votre dieu, et ne mettez pas de feu. | And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under. | And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under. |
| 26 | Et ils prirent le taureau qu'on leur avait donné, et l'offrirent, et invoquèrent le nom de Baal depuis le matin jusqu'à midi, disant: O Baal, réponds-nous! Mais il n'y eut pas de voix, ni personne qui répondît. Et ils sautaient autour de l'autel qu'on avait fait. | And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made. | And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped about the altar which was made. |
| 27 | Et il arriva qu'à midi Élie se moqua d'eux, et dit: Criez à haute voix, car il est un dieu; car il médite, ou il est allé à l'écart, ou il est en voyage; peut-être qu'il dort, et il se réveillera? | And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. | And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud; for he is a god: either he is musing, or he is gone aside, or he is on a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth and must be awaked. |
| 28 | Et ils crièrent à haute voix, et se firent des incisions, selon leur coutume, avec des épées et des piques, jusqu'à faire couler le sang sur eux. | And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them. | And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lances, till the blood gushed out upon them. |
| 29 | Et il arriva, quand midi fut passé, qu'ils prophétisèrent jusqu'à l'heure où l'on offre le gâteau; et il n'y eut pas de voix, et personne qui répondît, et personne qui fît attention. | And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded. | And it was so, when midday was past, that they prophesied until the time of the offering of the [evening] oblation; but there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded. |
| 30 | Alors Élie dit à tout le peuple: Approchez-vous de moi. Et tout le peuple s'approcha de lui. Et il répara l'autel de l'Éternel, qui avait été renversé. | And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down. | And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me; and all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of Jehovah that was thrown down. |
| 31 | Et Élie prit douze pierres, selon le nombre des tribus des fils de Jacob, auquel vint la parole de l'Éternel, disant: Israël sera ton nom; | And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name: | And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of Jehovah came, saying, Israel shall be thy name. |
| 32 | et il bâtit avec les pierres un autel au nom de l'Éternel, et fit autour de l'autel un fossé de la capacité de deux mesures de semence; | And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed. | And with the stones he built an altar in the name of Jehovah; and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed. |
| 33 | et il arrangea le bois, et dépeça le taureau, et le plaça sur le bois. | And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood. | And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid it on the wood. And he said, Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt-offering, and on the wood. |
| 34 | Et il dit: Remplissez d'eau quatre cruches, et versez-les sur l'holocauste et sur le bois. Et il dit: Faites-le une seconde fois; et ils le firent une seconde fois. Et il dit: Faites-le une troisième fois; et il le firent une troisième fois. | And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time. | And he said, Do it the second time; and they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time; and they did it the third time. |
| 35 | Et l'eau coula autour de l'autel; et il remplit d'eau aussi le fossé. | And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water. | And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water. |
| 36 | Et il arriva, à l'heure où l'on offre le gâteau, qu'Élie, le prophète, s'approcha, et dit: Éternel, Dieu d'Abraham, d'Isaac, et d'Israël, qu'il soit connu aujourd'hui que toi tu es Dieu en Israël, et que moi je suis ton serviteur, et que c'est par ta parole que j'ai fait toutes ces choses. | And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. | And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the [evening] oblation, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, O Jehovah, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. |
| 37 | Réponds-moi, Éternel, réponds-moi, et que ce peuple sache que toi, Éternel, tu es Dieu, et que tu as ramené leur coeur. | Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. | Hear me, O Jehovah, hear me, that this people may know that thou, Jehovah, art God, and [that] thou hast turned their heart back again. |
| 38 | Et le feu de l'Éternel tomba, et consuma l'holocauste, et le bois, et les pierres, et la poussière, et lécha l'eau qui était dans le fossé. | Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. | Then the fire of Jehovah fell, and consumed the burnt-offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. |
| 39 | Et tout le peuple le vit; et ils tombèrent sur leurs faces, et dirent: L'Éternel, c'est lui qui est Dieu! L'Éternel, c'est lui qui est Dieu! | And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God. | And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, Jehovah, he is God; Jehovah, he is God. |
| 40 | Et Élie leur dit: Saisissez les prophètes de Baal, que pas un d'entre eux n'échappe! Et ils les saisirent; et Élie les fit descendre au torrent de Kison, et les égorgea là. | And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. | and Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape.

| 41 | Et Élie dit à Achab: Monte, mange et bois, car il y a un bruit d'une abondance de pluie. | And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain. | And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain. |
| 42 | Et Achab monta pour manger et pour boire. Et Élie monta au sommet du Carmel, et il se courba jusqu'à terre, et mit sa face entre ses genoux. | So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees, | So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees. |
| 43 | Et il dit à son jeune homme: Monte, je te prie; regarde du côté de l'ouest. Et il monta, et regarda, et il dit: Il n'y a rien. Et il dit: Retournes-y sept fois. | And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. | And he said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. |
| 44 | Et il arriva qu'à la septième fois, il dit: Voici un petit nuage, comme la main d'un homme, qui s'élève de la mer. Et il dit: Lève-toi, dis à Achab: Attelle, et descends, afin que la pluie ne t'arrête pas. | And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand.

| 45 | Et il arriva, en attendant, que les cieux devinrent noirs par d'épais nuages accompagnés de vent, et il y eut une forte pluie; et Achab monta dans son char et s'en alla à J izreël. | And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel. | And it came to pass in a little while, that the heavens grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel: |
| 46 | Et la main de l'Éternel fut sur Élie, et il ceignit ses reins, et courut devant Achab jusque là où tu arrives à Jizreël. | And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. | and the hand of Jehovah was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. |
