| 1 | If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked. | Quand il s'élèvera une contestation entre des hommes, et qu'ils se seront présentés au jugement, qu'on les aura jugés, qu'on aura absous l'innocent et condamné le coupable, | If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, and [the judges] judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked; |
| 2 | And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number. | si le coupable a mérité d'être battu, le juge le fera étendre par terre et battre en sa présence d'un nombre de coups proportionné à sa faute. | and it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number. |
| 3 | Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee. | Il ne lui fera pas donner plus de quarante coups, de peur que, si on continuait à le frapper de beaucoup de coups en plus de ceux-là, ton frère ne fût avili à tes yeux. | Forty stripes he may give him, he shall not exceed; lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee. |
| 4 | Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. | Tu ne muselleras pas le boeuf, quand il foulera le grain. | Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the grain]. |
| 5 | If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother unto her. | Lorsque des frères demeurent ensemble, et que l'un d'eux meurt sans laisser de fils, la femme du défunt ne se mariera pas au dehors, à un étranger; mais son beau-frère ira vers elle, la prendra pour femme, et remplira envers elle le devoir de beau-frère. | If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married without unto a stranger: her husband`s brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband`s brother unto her. |
| 6 | And it shall be, that the firstborn which she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel. | Le premier-né qu'elle mettra au monde succédera au frère défunt et prendra son nom, afin que ce nom ne soit pas effacé d'Israël. | And it shall be, that the first-born that she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother that is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel. |
| 7 | And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then let his brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's brother. | S'il ne plaît pas à cet homme de prendre sa belle-soeur, sa belle-soeur montera à la porte, vers les anciens, et dira : «Mon beau-frère refuse de faire revivre le nom de son frère en Israël; il ne veut pas remplir, en m'épousant, son devoir de beau-frère.» | And if the man like not to take his brother`s wife, then his brother`s wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband`s brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband`s brother unto me. |
| 8 | Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her; | Alors les anciens de la ville l'appelleront et lui parleront. | Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand, and say, I like not to take her; |
| 9 | Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother's house. | S'il persiste et dit : «Il ne me plaît pas de la prendre, » sa belle-soeur s'approchera de lui en présence des anciens, lui ôtera son soulier du pied et lui crachera au visage, en disant : «Ainsi sera fait à l'homme qui ne relève pas la maison de son frère.» | then shall his brother`s wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother`s house. |
| 10 | And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed. | Et sa maison sera appelée en Israël la maison du déchaussé. | And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed. |
| 11 | When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets: | Lorsque des hommes se battront ensemble, un homme et son frère, si la femme de l'un s'approche pour délivrer son mari de la main de celui qui le frappe, et que, avançant la main, elle saisisse ce dernier par les parties honteuses, | When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets; |
| 12 | Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her. | tu lui couperas la main; ton oeil sera sans pitié. | then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall have no pity. |
| 13 | Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small. | Tu n'auras pas dans ton sac deux sortes de poids, un gros et un petit. | Thou shalt not have in thy bag diverse weights, a great and a small. |
| 14 | Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great and a small. | Tu n'auras pas dans ta maison deux sortes d'épha, un grand et un petit. | Thou shalt not have in thy house diverse measures, a great and a small. |
| 15 | But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. | Tu auras un poids exact et juste, tu auras un épha exact et juste, afin que tes jours se prolongent dans la terre que te donne Yahweh, ton Dieu. | A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee. |
| 16 | For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto the LORD thy God. | Car il est en abomination à Yahweh, ton Dieu, celui qui fait ces choses, qui commet une iniquité. | For all that do such things, [even] all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto Jehovah thy God. |
| 17 | Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come forth out of Egypt; | Souviens-toi de ce que te fit Amalec pendant le voyage, lorsque tu sortis de l'Egypte, | Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt; |
| 18 | How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God. | comment il te rencontra en route, et tomba sur toi par derrière, sur tous ceux qui étaient épuisés derrière toi, et toi tu étais fatigué et sans force, et il n'eut aucune crainte de Dieu. | how he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God. |
| 19 | Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget it. | Quand Yahweh, ton Dieu, t'aura donné du repos, t'ayant délivré de tous tes ennemis d'alentour, dans le pays que Yahweh, ton Dieu, te donne en héritage pour le posséder, tu effaceras la mémoire d'Amalec de dessous le ciel : ne l'oublie point. | Therefore it shall be, when Jehovah thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget. |
