| 1 | Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen. | Une femme d'entre les femmes des fils de prophètes cria vers Elisée, en disant : « Ton serviteur mon mari est mort, et tu sais que ton serviteur craignait Yahweh; or le créancier est venu prendre mes deux enfants pour en faire ses esclaves. » | Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear Jehovah: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two children to be bondmen. |
| 2 | And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil. | Elisée lui dit : « Que puis-je faire pour toi ? Dis-moi, qu'as-tu à la maison ? » Elle répondit : « Ta servante n'a rien du tout à la maison, si ce n'est un vase d'huile. » | And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me; what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thy handmaid hath not anything in the house, save a pot of oil. |
| 3 | Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. | Il dit : « Va demander au dehors des vases à tous tes voisins, des vases vides; n'en emprunte pas trop peu. | Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbors, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. |
| 4 | And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full. | Quand tu seras rentrée, tu fermeras la porte sur toi et sur tes enfants; tu verseras de ton huile dans tous ces vases, et ceux qui seront pleins, tu les mettras de côté. » | And thou shalt go in, and shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and pour out into all those vessels; and thou shalt set aside that which is full. |
| 5 | So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out. | Alors elle le quitta. Elle ferma la porte sur elle et sur ses enfants; ils approchaient d'elle les vases, et elle versait. | So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons; they brought [the vessels] to her, and she poured out. |
| 6 | And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed. | Lorsque les vases furent pleins, elle dit à son fils : « Approche encore de moi un vase. » Mais il lui répondit : « Il n'y a plus de vase. » Et l'huile s'arrêta. | And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed. |
| 7 | Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest. | Elle alla le rapporter à l'homme de Dieu, et il dit : « Va vendre l'huile et paie ta dette; et tu vivras, toi et tes fils de ce qui restera. » | Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy sons of the rest. |
| 8 | And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. | Un jour Elisée passait par Sunam. Il y avait là une femme riche, qui le pressa d'accepter à manger; et toutes les fois qu'il passait, il se rendait chez elle pour manger. | And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. |
| 9 | And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. | Elle dit à son mari : « Voici, je sais que c'est un saint homme de Dieu, qui passe ainsi souvent chez nous. | And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God, that passeth by us continually. |
| 10 | Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither. | Faisons-lui une petite chambre haute contre le mur, et mettons-y pour lui un lit, une table, un siège et un chandelier, afin qu'il s'y retire quand il viendra chez nous. » | Let us make, I pray thee, a little chamber on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a seat, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither. |
| 11 | And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there. | Elisée, étant revenu un autre jour à Sunam, se retira dans la chambre haute et y coucha. | And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber and lay there. |
| 12 | And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him. | Il dit à Giézi, son serviteur : « Appelle cette Sunamite. » Giézi l'appela, et elle se présenta devant lui. | And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him. |
| 13 | And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people. | Et Elisée dit à Giézi : « Dis-lui : Voici que tu nous as témoigné toute cette sollicitude : que peut-on faire pour toi ? Faut-il parler pour toi au roi ou au chef de l'armée ? » Elle répondit à Giézi : « J'habite au milieu de mon peuple. » | And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people. |
| 14 | And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old. | Et Elisée dit : « Que faire pour elle ? » Giézi répondit : « Mais elle n'a point de fils, et son mari est vieux. » | And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no son, and her husband is old. |
| 15 | And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door. | Et Elisée dit : « Appelle-la. » Giézi l'appela, et elle se tint à la porte. | And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door. |
| 16 | And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid. | Et Elisée lui dit : « A cette même époque, dans un an, tu caresseras un fils. » Et elle dit : « Non, mon seigneur, homme de Dieu, ne trompe pas ta servante. » | And he said, At this season, when the time cometh round, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thy handmaid. |
| 17 | And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life. | Et la femme conçut, et elle enfanta un fils, à la même époque, l'année suivante, comme Elisée le lui avait dit. | And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season, when the time came round, as Elisha had said unto her. |
| 18 | And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers. | L'enfant grandit. Un jour qu'il était allé trouver son père auprès des moissonneurs, | And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers. |
| 19 | And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother. | il dit à son père : « Ma tête! Ma tête! » Le père dit à son serviteur : « Porte-le à sa mère. » | And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to his servant, Carry him to his mother. |
| 20 | And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died. | Le serviteur l'ayant emporté et amené à sa mère, l'enfant resta sur les genoux de sa mère jusqu'à midi, puis il mourut. | And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died. |
| 21 | And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out. | Elle monta, le coucha sur le lit de l'homme de Dieu, ferma la porte sur lui et sortit. | And she went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut [the door] upon him, and went out. |
| 22 | And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again. | Elle appela son mari, et dit : « Envoie-moi, je te prie, un des serviteurs et une des ânesses, que je courre vers l'homme de Dieu, pour en revenir aussitôt. | And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the servants, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again. |
| 23 | And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well. | Il dit : « Pourquoi aller aujourd'hui vers lui ? Ce n'est ni la nouvelle lune, ni le sabbat. » Elle répondit : « Sois tranquille. » | And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to-day? it is neither new moon nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well. |
| 24 | Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not thy riding for me, except I bid thee. | Et, ayant fait seller l'ânesse, elle dit à son serviteur : « Mène-moi et va; ne m'arrête pas en route sans que je te le dise. » | Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slacken me not the riding, except I bid thee. |
| 25 | So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite: | Elle partit et se rendit vers l'homme de Dieu, sur la montagne du Carmel. L'homme de Dieu l'ayant aperçue de loin, dit à Giézi, son serviteur : « Voici la Sunamite. | So she went, and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is the Shunammite: |
| 26 | Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well: | Cours donc à sa rencontre et dis-lui : Te portes-tu bien ? Ton mari se porte-t-il bien ? Ton enfant se porte-t-il bien ? » Elle répondit : « Bien! » | run, I pray thee, now to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well. |
| 27 | And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me. | Dès qu'elle fut arrivée auprès de l'homme de Dieu, sur la montagne, elle saisit ses pieds. Giézi s'approcha pour la repousser; mais l'homme de Dieu dit : « Laisse-la, car son âme est dans l'amertume, et Yahweh me l'a caché et ne me l'a pas fait connaître. » | And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. And Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, Let her alone: for her soul is vexed within her; and Jehovah hath hid it from me, and hath not told me. |
| 28 | Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me? | Alors elle dit : « Ai-je demandé un fils à mon seigneur ? N'ai-je pas dit : Ne me trompe pas ? » | Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me? |
| 29 | Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child. | Et Elisée dit à Giézi : « Ceins tes reins, prends mon bâton dans ta main et pars. Si tu rencontres quelqu'un, ne le salue pas, et si quelqu'un te salue, ne lui réponds pas. Tu mettras mon bâton sur le visage de l'enfant. » | Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child. |
| 30 | And the mother of the child said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her. | La mère de l'enfant dit : « Yahweh est vivant et ton âme est vivante! Je ne te quitterai point. » Et Elisée se leva et la suivit. | And the mother of the child said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her. |
| 31 | And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked. | Giézi les avait devancés et il avait mis le bâton sur le visage de l'enfant; mais il n'y eut ni voix, ni signe d'attention. Il s'en retourna au-devant d'Elisée et lui rapporta la chose en disant : « L'enfant ne s'est pas réveillé. » | And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked. |
| 32 | And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed. | Lorsqu'Elisée arriva dans la maison, voici que l'enfant était mort, couché sur son lit. | And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed. |
| 33 | He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the LORD. | Elisée entra et, ayant fermé la porte sur eux deux, il pria Yahweh. | He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto Jehovah. |
| 34 | And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm. | Et il monta et se coucha sur l'enfant; il mit sa bouche sur sa bouche, ses yeux sur ses yeux, ses mains sur ses mains, et il s'étendit sur lui; et la chair de l'enfant se réchauffa. | And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon him; and the flesh of the child waxed warm. |
| 35 | Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes. | Elisée s'éloigna, et il allait çà et là dans la maison; puis il remonta sur le lit et s'étendit sur l'enfant; et l'enfant éternua sept fois, et l'enfant ouvrit les yeux. | Then he returned, and walked in the house once to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes. |
| 36 | And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son. | Elisée appela Giézi, et dit : « Appelle la Sunamite. » Giézi l'ayant appelée, elle vint vers Elisée qui lui dit : « Prends ton fils. » | And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son. |
| 37 | Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out. | Elle vint tomber à ses pieds et se prosterna contre terre; et, prenant son fils, elle sortit. | Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and went out. |
| 38 | And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets. | Elisée revint à Galgala, et la famine était dans le pays. Comme les fils des prophètes étaient assis devant lui, il dit à son serviteur : « Mets le grand pot, et fais cuire un potage pour les fils des prophètes. » | And Elisha came again to Gilgal. And there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets. |
| 39 | And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew them not. | L'un d'eux sortit dans les champs pour cueillir des herbes; il trouva une espèce de vigne sauvage et il y cueillit des coloquintes sauvages, plein son vêtement. A son retour, il les coupa en morceaux dans le pot où se préparait le potage, sans qu'ils en eussent connaissance. | And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage; for they knew them not. |
| 40 | So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof. | On versa du potage à ces hommes pour qu'ils en mangent; mais dès qu'ils eurent mangé du potage, il poussèrent des cris en disant : « La mort est dans le pot, homme de Dieu! » Et ils ne purent manger. | So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof. |
| 41 | But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot. | Elisée dit : « Apportez-moi de la farine. » Il en jeta dans le pot et dit : « Verse aux gens, et qu'ils mangent. » Et il n'y avait plus rien de mauvais dans le pot. | But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot. |
| 42 | And there came a man from Baalshalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat. | Un homme vint de Baal-Salisa, apportant à l'homme de Dieu du pain des prémices, savoir vingt pains d'orge, et du blé frais dans son sac. Elisée dit : « Donne aux gens, et qu'ils mangent. » | And there came a man from Baal-shalishah, and brought the man of God bread of the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat. |
| 43 | And his servitor said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof. | Son serviteur répondit : « Comment mettrai-je cela devant cent personnes ? » Mais Elisée dit : « Donne aux gens et qu'ils mangent. Car ainsi dit Yahweh : On mangera, et il y aura un reste. » | And his servant said, What, should I set this before a hundred men? But he said, Give the people, that they may eat; for thus saith Jehovah, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof. |
| 44 | So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the word of the LORD. | Il mit donc les pains devant eux, et ils mangèrent et ils en eurent de reste, selon la parole de Yahweh. | So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the word of Jehovah. |
