| 1 | Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices. | Malheur à Ariel, à Ariel, à la cité où David a dressé sa tente! Ajoutez année à année, que les solennités parcourent leur cycle, | Ho Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! add ye year to year; let the feasts come round: |
| 2 | Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel. | et je serrerai de près Ariel, et il n'y aura que plaintes et gémissements! Mais elle sera pour moi comme Ariel | then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and lamentation; and she shall be unto me as Ariel. |
| 3 | And I will camp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with a mount, and I will raise forts against thee. | je camperai tout autour de toi, je t'environnerai de postes armés, et j'établirai contre toi des retranchements. | And I will encamp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with posted troops, and I will raise siege works against thee. |
| 4 | And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust. | Tu seras abaissée ; c'est de la terre que s'élèvera ta voix, et de la poussière que se feront entendre tes sourds accents; ta voix sortira de terre, comme celle d'un spectre, et ta parole montera de la poussière comme un murmure. – | And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust; and thy voice shall be as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust. |
| 5 | Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly. | Et la multitude de tes ennemis sera comme une fine poussière, et la multitude des guerriers comme la paille qui s'envole. | But the multitude of thy foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be in an instant suddenly. |
| 6 | Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire. | Et il arrivera que soudain, en un instant, tu seras visitée par Yahweh des armées avec fracas, tonnerre et grand bruit, tourbillon, tempête et flamme de feu dévorant. | She shall be visited of Jehovah of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire. |
| 7 | And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision. | Et il en sera comme d'un songe, vision de la nuit, de la multitude de toutes les nations qui combattront contre Ariel, et de tous ceux qui combattront contre elle et sa forteresse et la serreront de près. | And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her stronghold, and that distress her, shall be as a dream, a vision of the night. |
| 8 | It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion. | Comme celui qui a faim rêve qu'il mange, et, à son réveil, son âme est vide ; et comme un homme qui a soif rêve qu'il boit, et, à son réveil, il est épuisé et toujours altéré; ainsi il en sera de la multitude de toutes les nations; qui marchent contre la montagne de Sion. | And it shall be as when a hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion. |
| 9 | Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. | Etonnez-vous et soyez dans la stupeur! Aveuglez-vous et soyez aveuglés! Ils sont ivres, mais pas de vin ; ils chancellent, mais pas de liqueurs fortes. | Tarry ye and wonder; take your pleasure and be blind: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. |
| 10 | For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered. | Car Yahweh a répandu sur vous un esprit de léthargie; il a fermé vos yeux -- les prophètes; Il a jeté un voile sur vos têtes -- les voyants. | For Jehovah hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes, the prophets; and your heads, the seers, hath he covered. |
| 11 | And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed: | Et toute vision est devenue pour vous comme les paroles d'un livre scellé. On le présente à un homme qui sait lire, en disant : ""Lis cela!"et il dit : "Je ne puis, car ce livre est scellé." | And all vision is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I cannot, for it is sealed: |
| 12 | And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned. | On le présente à un homme qui ne sait pas lire, en disant : ""Lis cela!"et il dit : "Je ne sais pas lire." | and the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I am not learned. |
| 13 | Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: | Le Seigneur dit : Puisque ce peuple s'approche en paroles et m'honore des lèvres, tandis qu'il tient son coeur éloigné de moi, et que le culte qu'il me rend est un précepte appris des hommes, | And the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw nigh [unto me], and with their mouth and with their lips to honor me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which hath been taught [them]; |
| 14 | Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. | à cause de cela, je continuerai à user de prodiges, avec ce peuple, de prodiges étranges. Et la sagesse de ses sages périra, et l'intelligence de ses docteurs s'obscurcira. | therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. |
| 15 | Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us? | Malheur à ceux qui cachent profondément à Yahweh le secret de leurs desseins, dont l'oeuvre s'accomplit dans les ténèbres, et qui disent : "Qui nous voit, qui nous connaît ?" | Woe unto them that hide deep their counsel from Jehovah, and whose works are in the dark, and that say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us? |
| 16 | Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding? | Quelle folie! Le potier sera-t-il donc estimé pour de l'argile, que l'oeuvre dise de l'ouvrier : "Il ne m'a point faite ; et que le vase dise du potier : "Il n'y entend rien ?" | Ye turn things upside down! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay; that the thing made should say of him that made it, He made me not; or the thing formed say of him that formed it, He hath no understanding? |
| 17 | Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest? | Est-ce que dans un peu de temps, le Liban ne sera pas changé en verger, et le verger ne sera pas réputé une forêt ? | Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest? |
| 18 | And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness. | En ce jour-là, les sourds entendront les paroles du livre, et, sortant des ténèbres et de l'obscurité, les aveugles verront. | And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness. |
| 19 | The meek also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. | Les humbles se réjouiront de plus en plus en Yahweh, et les plus pauvres tressailliront dans le Saint d'Israël. | The meek also shall increase their joy in Jehovah, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. |
| 20 | For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed, and all that watch for iniquity are cut off: | Car l'oppresseur aura disparu, et le moqueur aura péri, et tous ceux qui méditent l'iniquité seront exterminés, | For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scoffer ceaseth, and all they that watch for iniquity are cut off; |
| 21 | That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought. | ceux qui condamnent un homme pour un mot, qui tendent des pièges à celui qui les confond à la porte, et qui perdent le juste par leurs mensonges. | that make a man an offender in [his] cause, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just with a thing of nought. |
| 22 | Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale. | C'est pourquoi ainsi parle Yahweh à la maison de Jacob, lui qui a racheté Abraham : Jacob n'aura plus désormais à rougir, et son front désormais ne pâlira plus. | Therefore thus saith Jehovah, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale. |
| 23 | But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel. | Car, lorsqu'il verra, lui et ses enfants, l'oeuvre de mes mains au milieu d'eux, ils sanctifieront mon nom, ils sanctifieront le Saint de Jacob, et ils révéreront le Dieu d'Israël. | But when he seeth his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. |
| 24 | They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine. | Ceux qui avaient l'esprit égaré apprendront la sagesse, et ceux qui murmuraient recevront l'instruction. | They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall receive instruction. |
